Medical therapy for BPH: expanding our treatment paradigm?.

Prostate cancer and prostatic diseases

Nickel JC, Nickel DJ.
PMID: 12496855
Prostate Cancer Prostatic Dis. 1999 Jan;2:34-38. doi: 10.1038/sj.pcan.4500275.

Medical therapy for relief of symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is now a clinical reality. The challenge for urologists treating BPH with medical therapy is how to rationally employ the two proven classes of medications,the alpha blockers and...

The influence of obesity on calf blood flow and vascular reactivity in older adults.

Dynamic medicine : DM

Acree LS, Comp PC, Whitsett TL, Montgomery PS, Nickel KJ, Fjeldstad AS, Fjeldstad C, Gardner AW.
PMID: 17386093
Dyn Med. 2007 Mar 26;6:4. doi: 10.1186/1476-5918-6-4.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether differences in vascular reactivity existed among normal weight, overweight, and obese older men and women, and to examine the association between abdominal fat distribution and vascular reactivity.METHODS: Eighty-seven individuals who were 60 years of age...

Error-rate and decision-theoretic methods of multiple testing: which genes have high objective probabilities of differential expression?.

Statistical applications in genetics and molecular biology

Bickel DR.
PMID: 16646824
Stat Appl Genet Mol Biol. 2004;3:Article8. doi: 10.2202/1544-6115.1043. Epub 2004 May 19.

Given a multiple testing situation, the null hypotheses that appear to have sufficiently low probabilities of truth may be rejected using a simple, nonparametric method based on decision theory. This applies not only to posterior levels of belief, but...

Esophageal carcinoma: surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.

Current opinion in gastroenterology

van Lanschot JJ, Aleman BM, Richel DJ.
PMID: 17033326
Curr Opin Gastroenterol. 2002 Jul;18(4):490-5. doi: 10.1097/00001574-200207000-00015.

Several new developments in the potentially curative therapy of esophageal cancer have drawn attention over the past year. There is a potential benefit of centralization of esophagectomies in dedicated centers. Early mucosal lesions are increasingly treated by local ablative...

Algorithmic aspects of a neuron for coherent wave synapse realizations.

IEEE transactions on neural networks

Adler SL, Bhanot G, Weckel JD.
PMID: 18263519
IEEE Trans Neural Netw. 1996;7(5):1262-71. doi: 10.1109/72.536319.

We study a neuron functional form (which we call the absolute value neuron) that arises naturally in analog devices in which the neuron synapses are realized using coherent oscillatory wave signals. We discuss algorithmic aspects of this neuron at...

Complex mucinous cystadenoma of undetermined malignant potential of the urachus.

Canadian Urological Association journal = Journal de l'Association des urologues du Canada

Schell AJ, Nickel CJ, Isotalo PA.
PMID: 19672436
Can Urol Assoc J. 2009 Aug;3(4):E39-E41. doi: 10.5489/cuaj.1139.

Urachal mucinous neoplasms are rare and include both villous adenomas and invasive adenocarcinomas. These mucinous tumours should be completely excised as they can demonstrate aggressive clinical behaviour, including the development of pseudomyxoma peritonei. We describe a 70-year-old woman who...

Initial stages of self-organization of silica-alumina gels in zeolite synthesis.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

We report the effect of aluminum on the formation and structure of silica nanoparticles formed in basic solutions of small organic and inorganic cations using a combination of small-angle X-ray scattering, conductivity, pH, and 27Al NMR spectroscopy methods. At...

Sex bias in graduate admissions: data from berkeley.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Bickel PJ, Hammel EA, O'connell JW.
PMID: 17835295
Science. 1975 Feb 07;187(4175):398-404. doi: 10.1126/science.187.4175.398.

Examination of aggregate data on graduate admissions to the University of California, Berkeley, for fall 1973 shows a clear but misleading pattern of bias against female applicants. Examination of the disaggregated data reveals few decision-making units that show statistically...
