We have developed a patient-specific SCR evaluation program that can be used conveniently in the clinic. The program consists of a Monte Carlo dose calculation system for accurate calculation of scatter and leakage radiation and a patient-specific automatic SCR evaluation program…Read more

The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) through excessive end organ inflammation. Despite improved understanding of the pathophysiology, management, and the great efforts worldwide to produce effective drugs, death rates of COVID-19 patients remain unacceptably high, and…Read more

Decades of experimental and theoretical work support a now well-established theory that active dendritic processing contributes to the computational power of individual neurons. This theory is based on the high degree of electrical compartmentalization observed in the dendrites of single neurons in ex vivo preparations. Compartmentalization allows…Read more

tivity to the spinal α-motoneuron in response to anti-PD medications and DBS.Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is most likely to damage the central nervous system (CNS) during early embryonic development; however, the early neurodevelopmental abnormalities caused by HCMV infection and the regulation of cytokines remain unclear. Therefore, we…Read more

Total PAC concentrations in scenic and agricultural zones were significantly lower than those in industrial and residential zones. On the basis of PMF calculation, we proposed that traffic emission and biomass combustion could be responsible for PAC contamination. According to total lifetime cancer risk index, it suggested that there could be…Read more

DT was noted in 192 (2.85%) cases. Of these, 102 patients with complete data were included in the DT group. The DT group had a significantly increased length of hospital stay (p = 0.001). Also, the duration of bed rest in the hospital was significantly higher in patients wherein DT wasrepaired using hemostatic material and fibrin glue, compared to…Read more

ect electrophysiological abnormalities in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.

Surgical techniques, such as the application of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), can be used for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI).

We report a case of a 73-year old patient, in whom HIFU failed to achieve PVI but promoted the occurrence of a…Read more

Rates of oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) associated with alcohol & tobacco use have decreased, while human papillomavirus (HPV) associated OPC has increased among men in the US. Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), detectable in a variety of secretions, has been implicated in cancers of the head and neck, associated with tumor progression and…Read more

In 81 patients no adverse events or SADE occurred. Statistically significant changes in ventricular PCT (0.034 ± 0.15 V) immediately after, ventricular LI immediately after (-18.7 ± 44.2 Ω) and 1 month post phase B (-19.8 ± 44.9 Ω), and atrial sensing attenuation immediately after (-0.27 ± 0.92 mV) and 1 month post phase B (-0.22 ± 0.92 mV) were n…Read more

Forced expiratory volumes in 1 s (FEV1) (% of predicted) were 71.88% ± 8.46% and 59.45% ± 27.45% in the hUC-MSC and control groups (P  less then  0.01), respectively, and FEV1/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) ratios were 79.95% ± 8.00% and 58.97% ± 19.16% in the hUC-MSC and control groups, respectively (P  less then  0.05). SGRQ scores were lo…Read more
