We report on a 46-year-old gentleman who presented with a poorly differentiated invasive adenocarcinoma of the gastro-oesophageal junction, local lymph node involvement and bilobar liver metastases. Nearly 2 years after diagnosis, he has sustained complete metabolic response and remains...

A radiological comparison of anterior fusion rates in anterior lumbar interbody fusion.

Global spine journal

McCarthy MJ, Ng L, Vermeersch G, Chan D.
PMID: 24353968
Global Spine J. 2012 Dec;2(4):195-206. doi: 10.1055/s-0032-1329892. Epub 2012 Nov 19.

Aim To compare anterior fusion in standalone anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) using cage and screw constructs and anterior cage-alone constructs with posterior pedicle screw supplementation but without posterior fusion. Methods Eighty-five patients underwent single- or two-level ALIF procedure...

Prevalence of KRAS, BRAF, PI3K and EGFR mutations among Asian patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Oncology letters

Phua LC, Ng HW, Yeo AH, Chen E, Lo MS, Cheah PY, Chan EC, Koh PK, Ho HK.
PMID: 26622882
Oncol Lett. 2015 Oct;10(4):2519-2526. doi: 10.3892/ol.2015.3560. Epub 2015 Aug 03.

Mutations in oncogenes along the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway have been implicated in the resistance to cetuximab in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, the relative significance of these mutations based on their frequencies of...

High conversion efficiency microwave photonic mixer based on stimulated Brillouin scattering carrier suppression technique.

Optics letters

Chan EH, Minasian RA.
PMID: 24322240
Opt Lett. 2013 Dec 15;38(24):5292-5. doi: 10.1364/OL.38.005292.

A new microwave photonic mixer that can achieve a high conversion efficiency is presented. It is based on using the stimulated Brillouin scattering loss spectrum to suppress the optical carrier at the output of two optical phase modulators driven...

Wavelength-band-tuning photodiodes by using various metallic nanoparticles.

Nanotechnology

Hwang JD, Chan YD, Chou TC.
PMID: 26508114
Nanotechnology. 2015 Nov 20;26(46):465202. doi: 10.1088/0957-4484/26/46/465202. Epub 2015 Oct 28.

Wavelength-band tuning was easily achieved in this work by depositing various metallic nanoparticles (NPs) on silicon p-n junction photodiodes (PDs). The normalization spectrum of the PDs deposited with gold (Au) NPs reveals a high-wavelength pass characteristic; the PDs with...

Aggressive Renal Angiomyolipoma of the Lipomatous Variant With Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Urology case reports

Fox C, Salami SS, Moreira DM, Landis GS, Chan D, Yaskiv O, Vira MA.
PMID: 26955534
Urol Case Rep. 2013 Dec 25;2(1):9-11. doi: 10.1016/j.eucr.2013.11.009. eCollection 2014 Jan.

Two variants of renal angiomyolipoma (AML)-classic and epithelioid-have been described. Although the epithelioid variant has been reported to demonstrate an aggressive clinical behavior, classic AML is usually benign. Herein, we report a case of a 42-year-old asymptomatic woman with...

Rationally Designed Energy Transfer in Upconverting Nanoparticles.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)

Chan EM, Levy ES, Cohen BE.
PMID: 25809982
Adv Mater. 2015 Oct 14;27(38):5753-61. doi: 10.1002/adma.201500248. Epub 2015 Mar 24.

Significant advances in the analysis and theoretical modeling of upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are beginning to reveal the complex details of their energy transfer (ET) pathways. UCNPs combine multiple NIR photons to emit at higher energies in the NIR or...
