Natural Killer (NK) cells are innate immune responders critical for viral clearance and
immunomodulation. Despite their vital role in viral infection, the contribution of NK cells in fighting …

Background Surgical stress results in a significant reduction in natural killer (NK) cell
cytotoxicity (NKC), which has been linked to postoperative cancer metastases. However, few …

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized control trials to formally
assess the safety and efficacy of autologous whole cell vaccines as immunotherapies for …

Background: Gender disparities in faculty rank have yet to be studied among Canadian
physicians. The purpose of this study was to determine whether differences in region, training, …

Objective The prognostic significance of an incomplete esophageal cancer resection due to
a positive microscopic radial margin remains unclear. The aim of this study is to examine the …

Profound natural killer (NK) cell suppression after cancer surgery is a main driver of metastases
and recurrence, for which there is no clinically approved intervention available. Surgical …

Background Surgery results in severe impairment of natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity (NKC)
and activity (NKA, cytokine secretion), and a dramatic drop in arginine levels. Postoperative …

Autologous cell vaccines use a patient's tumor cells to stimulate a broad antitumor response
in vivo. This approach shows promise for treating hematologic cancers in early phase …

By presenting a patient's own tumor antigens to their immune system, autologous cancer
cell vaccines can drive a robust polyclonal adaptive response. In this systematic review and …
