Significantly prolonged overall survival (OS) was observed in patients carrying hot (median OS not reached) vs cold (median OS 22 months; hazard ratio 0.28, 95% confidence interval 0.09-0.82;

= 0.015) immune background, thus validating the prognostic impact of these two TIME categories in resected NSCLC. Importantly, in the validation…[Read more]

Results for the effect of extraction pH and pH treatment on the functional, physicochemical, rheological and thermal characteristics of amaranth protein isolates (APIs) are reported in this study. Four amaranth protein isolates (P1, P2, P3 and P4) were prepared by varying the extraction pH (9-11). These four protein isolate samples were further…[Read more]

Nitinol stents (Memotherm

) were employed in 19 (45%) patients, and steel stents (Wallstent™) in the remaining 23 (55%) patients. Thirty-five (85%) patients died during follow up for disease progression and the overall survival rate at 24months was 11% (standard error (SE)=0.058). selleck compound Thirteen patients (32%) had a recurrence of…[Read more]
