It’s a joke to call these guidelines “consensus of international experts” when there not even a pretense to go beyond Europe and North America Just be honest folks Call it your own consensus 🤷🏻♂️
International consensus guidelines for management for pediatric AML. International = USA and Europe. No mention about important studies from India and other countries or involvement of experts from Global South. https://t.co/Z03ufWCOcp

Congratulations @drmpk91 for your eye opening work! Financial distress is a known problem for Indian cancer patients, but it is rarely measured or accounted for in practice or studies. Integrated targeted referrals improving multi- domain distress is encouraging!

🧪 Unresectable Oral Cavity Cancer: Radical Rx Feasible? This observational study shows that patient choice-driven radical treatment (URAD) in unresectable OCC led to: ✅ Better QoL (pain score ↑ from 26 ➡️ 80) ✅ Improved survival (RRAD OS: 37.9 mo vs UPA: 6.0 mo) 📊 77%
