OBJECTIVES: To examine the cost-effectiveness of primary debulking surgery (PDS) when compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in the management of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data linked to Medicare claims (SEER-Medicare).METHODS: Using a Markov...

Helping Children Cope with Medical Tests and Interventions.

Journal of radiology nursing

Lang EV, Viegas J, Bleeker C, Bruhn J, Geert-Jan van G.
PMID: 28943814
J Radiol Nurs. 2017 Mar;36(1):44-50. doi: 10.1016/j.jradnu.2016.11.005.

Medical procedures and tests become a challenge when anxiety and pain make it difficult for the patient to cooperate or remain still when needed. Fortunately a short intervention with hypnoidal language at the onset of a procedure induces a...

Telogen effluvium as the first symptom of Crohn's disease in a child.

Annals of gastroenterology

Rogalidou M, Tzoufi M, Katsanos K, Gaitanis G, Zioga A, Tsianos E, Siamopoulou-Mavridou A.
PMID: 25330758
Ann Gastroenterol. 2014;27(4):418-420.

Crohn's disease usually manifests gastrointestinal symptoms, however in some cases the patient presents with prominent or even exclusive extraintestinal involvement. Alopecia has been reported as a complication of therapeutic agents used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, and,...

Broadband CMOS-compatible SOI temperature insensitive Mach-Zehnder interferometer.

Optics express

Xing P, Viegas J.
PMID: 26406616
Opt Express. 2015 Sep 21;23(19):24098-107. doi: 10.1364/OE.23.024098.

We propose an improved design approach for athermal silicon-on-insulator Mach-Zehnder interferometers to extend their spectral range with minimal temperature sensitivity. We demonstrate that the device designed following the improved approach has a near-zero temperature sensitivity (2.5 pm/K) over more...

The Journal of invasive cardiology

Siogas C, Goudevenos J, Pappas S, Foussas S, Graekas G, Siamopoulos K, Sideris D.
PMID: 10785710
J Invasive Cardiol. 1996 Jun;8(5):223-227.

PURPOSE: To determine the usefulness of renal angiography in patients that underwent coronary angiography because of clinically suspected coronary artery disease. METHODS: Selective arteriography of the renal arteries was performed in 205 patients (mean age 60 +/- 8 years;...

Intestinal obstruction due to an anomalous congenital band.

Saudi journal of gastroenterology : official journal of the Saudi Gastroenterology Association

Dimitrios C, George AA, Dimosthenis Z, Nikolaos X.
PMID: 19568494
Saudi J Gastroenterol. 2008 Jan;14(1):36-7. doi: 10.4103/1319-3767.37806.

We report a case of a 20-year-old male who presented with symptoms and signs of intestinal obstruction. The patient reported no previous history of abdominal surgery or trauma while clinical and radiographic examinations were not diagnostic. An open laparotomy...

Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy

Deger S, Giessing M, Roigas J, Wille AH, Lein M, Schönberger B, Loening SA.

Omitting axilla lymphadenectomy even by positive sentinel lymph node: a change in breast cancer treatment practice.

Women's health (London, England)

Zoras O, Ziogas D, Roukos DH.
PMID: 21790334
Womens Health (Lond). 2011 Jul;7(4):417-8. doi: 10.2217/whe.11.46.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been a reliable technique to accurately predict the axilla node status in women with breast cancer with clinically negative lymph nodes. Based on predictive accuracy evidence from large-scale clinical trials, SLNB has become...
