Hyperhomocysteinemia in chronic alcoholism: correlation with folate, vitamin B-12, and vitamin B-6 status.
Marília Cravo,L. Glória,J Selhub,M R Nadeau,M.E. Camilo,M. Resende,J N Cardoso,Carlos Nobre Leitão,F C Mira +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that by interfering with folate or vitamin B-6 metabolism, chronic alcohol intake may impair the disposal of homocysteine through the transmethylation or transsulfuration pathways.

Short segments of Barrett’s epithelium and intestinal metaplasia in normal appearing oesophagogastric junctions: the same or two different entities?
A Dias Pereira,Alexandra Suspiro,Paula Chaves,A Saraiva,L. Glória,J. C. Mendes de Almeida,Carlos Nobre Leitão,J. Soares,F C Mira +8 more
TL;DR: Endoscopic diagnosis of SSBE is associated with a high prevalence of SCE, significantly higher than that found in normal appearing oesophagogastric junctions, and differences between patients with SCE in the two groups suggest they may represent two different entities.

Metabolic responses to tumour disease and progression: tumour-host interaction.
TL;DR: In contrast to starvation, where it is possible to reverse the body composition changes by the provision of extra calories, in cancer cachexia this reversal is not observed, suggesting that anorexia alone is unlikely to be responsible for this wasting syndrome as discussed by the authors.

Paula Chaves,António Dias Pereira,António E. Pinto,Antonio Gouveia Oliveira,Lurdes Queimado,L. Glória,Paula Cardoso,F C Mira,Jorge Soares +8 more
TL;DR: Immunoreactivity for p53 tumor supressor gene product is commonly found in human malignancies and some premalignant lesions, but its role in cancer development and its value as a marker of tumor biologic behavior is still unclear.
