The future of oncology pharmacy: European Conference of Oncology Pharmacy 2018The way we treat cancer is changing. Scientific and technological advances such as tumour profiling, 'big data,' and an increasing number of targeted therapies and combination regimens will result in a paradigm shift away from a 'one-size-fits-all' concept toward personalized, on-demand, precision medicine, which will result in smaller, more defined patient populations. In parallel, the global incidence of cancer is rising,...

Although clinicians are unlikely to accurately pinpoint when death is likely to occur in the people they care for, the death in a person with a diagnosis of malignant and nonmalignant tends to involve a period of predictable progressive clinical and functional deterioration. During this time, it is common for death rattle...

Characterization of Glucokinase Catalysis from a Pseudo-Dimeric ViewAbstractGlucose phosphorylation by glucokinase exhibits a sigmoidal dependency on substrate concentration regardless of its simple structure. Dimorph mechanism suggested the existence of two enzymatic states with different catalytic properties, which has been shown to be plausible by structural analysis. However, the dimorph mechanism gives rise to a complicated or non-explicit non-closed mathematical form. It is neither feasible...
