Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the pancreas and midgut are extremely rare in children, and patients presenting with metastatic disease have poor survival. Given this rarity, treatments are extrapolated from guidelines for adults with NET. Recent clinical trials in adults with NETs have shown that the addition of peptide receptor radionuclide…[Read more]

Antibiotic usage for beekeeping, including quinolones, can lead to residues in honey and these residues usually result from the drugs used in the treatment of American or European foulbrood diseases. Residues in honey may cause allergic reactions as well as increased antibiotic resistance. Within this study, rapid and breakthrough analysis methods…[Read more]

Single-molecule magnets exhibit magnetic bistabililties at the molecular level, making them promising for molecule-based spintronics due to high magnetic densities. The incorporation of SMM behavior and electrical conductivity in one compound is rare because these two physical properties often do not operate in the same temperature range, which…[Read more]

itional indexes and was an appropriate alternative to ESPEN 2015 for simplifying nutritional assessment.Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of most lethal malignancies with high aggressive potential in the world. Radiotherapy is used as one curative treatment modality for ESCC patients. Due to radioresistance, the 5-year survival…[Read more]

The low crystal disorder and defects in the AlN on NPSS is confirmed by the small Urbach energy values. The variation in bandgap (Eg) and optical constants (n, k) with temperature are discussed in detail. Nano-patterning leads to poor light transmission due to light scattering, coupling, and trapping in nano-holes.Amyloid-formation by the islet…[Read more]

A significant correlation between SIISKIN and the harmonised classification was observed, and a proportionate relationship between the SIISKIN and the corresponding PII. The index proved to be useful in the development of an in silico model.

Methamphetamine is used extensively around the world as a psychostimulant. The complications related to…[Read more]

Immunosuppression is a common feature of multiple myeloma (MM) patients and has been associated with disease evolution from its precursor stages. MM cells promote immunosuppressive effects due to both the secretion of soluble factors, which inhibit the function of immune effector cells, and the recruitment of immunosuppressive populations.…[Read more]

Breathlessness while speaking may be more impactful than inability to produce speech in this population.

Voice-related QOL is impacted in patients with SGS in a predictable way. Breathlessness while speaking may be more impactful than inability to produce speech in this population.

To describe the evolution and recent series on transoral…[Read more]

65, 95% confidence interval [CI] -1.08 to -0.21; TFPI β=-0.55, 95% CI -0.90 to -0.19; FXc β=0.52, 95% CI 0.21-0.84). One of four principal components, loading positively on D-dimer, prothrombin fragment 1.2 (F1.2), and PAP was significantly associated with change in 3MSE.

Levels of PAP, TPFI, and FXc and a combination of factors driven b…[Read more]
