Abstract:Background
The purpose of this study is to analyze renal function outcomes in abdominal neuroblastoma patients undergoing proton therapy (PT).
Procedure
From 2011 to 2019, two single‐institution Institutional Review Board‐approved protocols prospectively enrolled neuroblastoma patients for data collection. To assess renal function, serum creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine clearance (CrCl) before proton therapy (pre‐PT) were compared with the values at last follow‐up.

“…To the Editor, I read with great interest the study by Arnold C. Paulino titled "Renal function in abdominal neuroblastoma patients undergoing proton radiotherapy" [1]. I'm glad I came across this piece; the author's efforts are commendable.…”
In conclusion, employing multiple strategies to enhance research and care is essential. New treatment paradigms should be supplemented in order to increase the applicability of other forms of therapy.
