The article discusses the study which aims to evaluate the effects of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) on overall survival and cause-specific survival. The study includes 7995 patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) Program from 1988 and 1997. The study needs to consider prophylactic cranial irradiation for patients with restricted stage small cell lung cancer.

The article discusses a study on descriptive nomograms of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) use and patterns of care analysis for stage I and II of endometrial adenocarcinoma. It found that higher tumor grade and stage led to greater use of RT. It notes that geographic location had a significant effect on overall RT use and therapy choice. It also mentions the absence of a national consensus on adjuvant treatment for early-stage disease.

The article presents a medical study to evaluate the frequency and effect of adjuvant radiation therapy among women with stage one endometrial adenocarcinoma. Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy in the United States. The benefit of adjuvant radiation therapy in stage one endometrial adenocarcinoma remains controversial despite clinical trials. This medical study reveals a statistically significant association between improved survival and adjuvant radiation therapy.
