Although, many researchers have investigated the decontamination potential of different mesoporous engineered bio sorbents for a suite of…[Read more]

For tumors above 3 cm, the odds ratio stabilized around 1.9. By using the 3 cm cutoff to guide adjuvant therapy, up to 85% of T1b patients may be overtreated.

The 3 cm cutoff for subclassification of Stage I seminoma does not predict metastatic recurrence but is associated with increased receipt of adjuvant therapy. selleck A 3 cm cutoff…[Read more]
