## BACKGROUND. Squamous cancers of the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) are related to the use of tobacco and/or alcohol, and in North America they are more common among the poor. They are usually locoregionally confined at diagnosis, and local treatment with surgery and/or radiation therapy is oft
In this study, 1,000 Japanese male alcoholics were consecutively screened by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with esophageal iodine staining. Associations among cancer-detection rates, drinking and smoking habits, and aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) genotypes were evaluated. A total of 53 patients
## Abstract The __MAGE__ antigens are frequently expressed cancer vaccine targets. However, quantitative analysis of __MAGE__ expression in upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) tumor cells and its association with Tβcell recognition has not been performed, hindering the selection of appropriate candida
Some studies have shown that human papillomavirus (HPV) infection may play not only an etiologic role in anogenital cancers but also a role in the clinical outcome. The objective of the current study was to determine whether detection of HPV DNA in primary squamous cell carcinomas of the upper aerod
