BACKGROUND: Interventional endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided procedures such as EUS-guided celiac ganglia neurolysis (EUS-CGN) and EUS-guided broad plexus neurolysis (EUS-BPN) were developed to treat abdominal cancer-associated pain; however, these procedures are not always effective. The aim of this study was...

EUS-Guided Biliary Drainage.

Gut and liver

Yamao K, Hara K, Mizuno N, Sawaki A, Hijioka S, Niwa Y, Tajika M, Kawai H, Kondo S, Shimizu Y, Bhatia V.

Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) combines endoscopy and intraluminal ultrasonography, and allows imaging with a high-frequency transducer over a short distance to generate high-resolution ultrasonographic images. EUS is now a widely accepted modality for diagnosing pancreatobiliary diseases. EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA)...

High Resolution Melt (HRM) analysis is an efficient tool to genotype EMS mutants in complex crop genomes.

BACKGROUND: Targeted Induced Loci Lesions IN Genomes (TILLING) is increasingly being used to generate and identify mutations in target genes of crop genomes. TILLING populations of several thousand lines have been generated in a number of crop species including...

Circulating adiponectin is associated with renal function independent of age and serum lipids in west africans.

International journal of nephrology

Doumatey AP, Zhou J, Huang H, Adeleye J, Balogun W, Fasanmade O, Johnson T, Oli J, Okafor G, Amoah A, Eghan B, Agyenim-Boateng K, Acheampong J, Adebamowo C, Adeyemo A, Rotimi CN.
