We excluded 49 articles for the following reasons: duplicate populations (N = 20), no data on outcome (case/control status or any of the studied phenotypic characteristics) or on MC1R variants (N = 12), case reports, commentaries or reviews (N = 6), GWAS (N = 6), populations selected for genetic factors (N = 4) and multiple primary melanoma cases only (N = 1).
Patients were categorised into five different melanoma subgroups: (a) familial melanoma (FAM, 23 cases), (b) multiple primary melanoma (MPM, 18 cases), (c) melanoma and additional unrelated cancers (13 cases), (d) age at diagnosis less than 25 years (21 cases), and (e) nonphoto-induced melanoma (NPIM, 14 cases).
In this paper, specifying the single secondary user (SU) with multiple primary user (PU) case, a novel power allocation scheme is developed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) – based cognitive radio networks designed to maximize the capacity of the SU while limiting the interference to the PUs.
In some cases, multiple primary tumors may be evident at presentation.
In such cases, multiple primary staphylomas overlap in stepped or terraced areas of ectasia.
We developed a prognostic model using Cox regression and multiple imputation from 1189 primary cases of epithelial ovarian cancer (with median follow-up of 4.6 years).
Natugoe et al. [1] reported that double cancer of the esophagus and breast was observed in only one patient in 157 cases of multiple primary cancers with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, including synchronous and metachronous types.
The earliest date of diagnosis was used in cases with multiple primary cancers at different times.
These are routinely checked, through family doctor and hospital notes, to identify cases of multiple primary tumours.
