Dysregulation of Cholesterol Homeostasis in Ovarian Cancer

“…Levels of serum cholesterol are associated with a higher risk of cancer cell proliferation, metastasis and resistance to anti-cancer agents [ 11 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. Therefore, an increasing number of investigations focus on the potential of repurposing statins, drugs which decrease cholesterol, as anti-cancer agents in OC (e.g., NCT04457089 which investigated simvastatin 40 mg in OC, NCT03532139 which investigated rosuvastatin and enoxaparin following OC surgery, and NCT00585052 which investigated lovastatin and paclitaxel in recurrent OC) [ 20 , 21 , 22 ].…”

Diagnostic thinking and information used in clinical decision-making: a qualitative study of expert and student dental clinicians

“…Conversely, isomorphic models are concerned with describing the actual components and their interactions. Paramorphic models of decision-making have often been used by designing statistical models [25-27]; decision analysis, decision theory and decision-tree models [28-34], or set theory models [27,35]. These models, however, are idealized diagrammatic representations of human strategies, which makes them somewhat detached from actual cognitive handling of decision-making information.…”
