21 Mar 2011

BACKGROUND: Females carry a better prognosis than men for many cancer types. We hypothesized that chromosomal changes, in particular numerical alterations of the sex chromosomes or the presence of near-triploidy may contribute to these gender differences. METHODS: To characterize the influence of gender a literature search was performed for survival data of 27 tumor types. All entities were categorized by the...
