Mol Clin Oncol. 2015 May;3(3):655-662. doi: 10.3892/mco.2015.523. Epub 2015 Mar 03.

The aim of the present study was to predict the effects of transarterial infusion (TAI) chemotherapy based on early changes in α-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-γ-carboxy prothrombin (DCP) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Seventy-four patients who underwent TAI...

Two cases of cryptogenic life-threatening hemoptysis - identification and management of bleeding point.

Acute medicine & surgery

Okuda K, Tanaka J, Okamoto J, Kishi F, Nakagawa J, Hino H, Chujoh S, Shimadzu K, Kishimoto M, Kato N, Shiono S.
PMID: 29123846
Acute Med Surg. 2016 Jul 19;4(1):114-118. doi: 10.1002/ams2.227. eCollection 2017 Jan.

CASES: Case 1: A 63-year-old woman was referred for coughing blood. Although cardiorespiratory dynamics were stabilized by artificial respiration under sedation, severely poor ventilation developed from asphyxia associated with massive respiratory tract hemorrhage. One-lung ventilation was temporarily secured by...

Painful locking of the wrist in a patient with pseudoachondroplasia confirmed by COMP mutation.

Journal of surgical case reports

PMID: 28044000
J Surg Case Rep. 2017 Jan 02;2017(1). doi: 10.1093/jscr/rjw216.

We report the case of a 40-year-old woman with pseudoachondroplasia (PSACH), with a heterozygous mutation (c.806A > G, p.Asp269Gly) located in the Type 3 repeats domain of the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein gene, who complained of the unusual symptom...

Ultrasound Assessment of Kidney Volume in Patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: A Predictor of Diuretic Resistance.

Yonago acta medica

PMID: 28959123
Yonago Acta Med. 2017 Sep 15;60(3):135-144. eCollection 2017 Sep.

BACKGROUND: Diuretics are essential for treating acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), but the response is inconsistent. This study aimed to clarify whether kidney volume as assessed by ultrasound (US) predicts diuretic resistance in patients with ADHF.METHODS: We enrolled 29...

''Crystal bridge'' for measuring the equivalent electrical parameters of piezoelectric crystals.

The Review of scientific instruments

Ramadan B, Kos JF.
PMID: 18699100
Rev Sci Instrum. 1978 Mar;49(3):374. doi: 10.1063/1.1135410.

The methods and instrumentation for carrying out precise measurements of the equivalent electrical parameters of piezoelectric crystals have been developed. An accuracy exceeding 0.05% has been achieved with low power dissipation in the crystal permitting the use of this...

Visuo-Haptic Mixed Reality with Unobstructed Tool-Hand Integration.

IEEE transactions on visualization and computer graphics

Cosco F, Garre C, Bruno F, Muzzupappa M, Otaduy MA.

Visuo-haptic mixed reality consists of adding to a real scene the ability to see and touch virtual objects. It requires the use of see-through display technology for visually mixing real and virtual objects, and haptic devices for adding haptic...

Assessment of stromal invasion for correct histological diagnosis of early hepatocellular carcinoma.

International journal of hepatology

Kondo F.
PMID: 22007311
Int J Hepatol. 2011;2011:241652. doi: 10.4061/2011/241652. Epub 2011 Jun 08.

Stromal invasion (invasive growth of tumor tissue into portal tracts and fibrous septa) is now recognized as the most important finding in the diagnosis of the well-differentiated type of early hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). In differentiating stromal invasion from pseudoinvasion...

Ultrafast dynamics of charge density waves in 4H(b)-TaSe2 probed by femtosecond electron diffraction.

Physical review letters

Erasmus N, Eichberger M, Haupt K, Boshoff I, Kassier G, Birmurske R, Berger H, Demsar J, Schwoerer H.

The dynamics of the photoinduced commensurate-to-incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) phase transition in 4H(b)-TaSe(2) are investigated by femtosecond electron diffraction. In the perturbative regime, the CDW re-forms on a 150-ps time scale, which is two orders of magnitude slower...

Difficulties in diagnosing food-borne botulism.

Case reports in neurology

Forss N, Ramstad R, Bäcklund T, Lindström M, Kolho E.
