Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Cancer.
Abstract: Recent data suggest that intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plus brachytherapy boost for unfavorable prostate cancer provides improved biochemical relapse-free survival over IMRT alone. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) may be a less...
Abstract: Reactive astrogliosis has occurred after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) can act as a modulator for glial gene expression. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a critical regulator of reactive...
Abstract: To assess the risk of mood disorders among patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), a population-based cohort study was performed using the Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research Database. The study cohort included 27242 patients diagnosed with CRC...
Abstract: The cancer stem cell (CSC) and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) models have been closely associated and used to describe both the formation of metastasis and therapy resistance. We established a primary lung cell culture from a patient in a...
Abstract: PCF is the most common major complication after salvage total laryngectomy (TL), especially for previously irradiated patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal cancer. A 65-year-old woman presented with recurrent bilateral supraglottic SCC requiring salvage...
Abstract: To study the efficacy and safety of intrathecal neostigmine at dose of 50 μg and 150 μg as an adjuvant to bupivacaine for postoperative analgesia under spinal anesthesia. 75 patients of either sex, belonging to American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA)...
Abstract: For patients who have an ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence following prior breast-conserving surgery and radiation, total mastectomy generally is recommended. However, little is known about the suitability and outcomes of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM)...
Abstract: Limited mouth opening (LMO) in oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) has been attributed to both the submucosal and muscle fibrosis (MF). While reflectory trismus was proposed before as an auxiliary mechanism by another group, the stretch-mediated muscle damage...
Abstract: The objective of this pilot study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel method using an autologous whole blood clot formed with the RedDress Wound Care System (RD1, RedDress Ltd, Israel), a provisional whole blood clot matrix used in the...
