Background and purpose Proton Minibeam Radiation Therapy (pMBRT) is an unconventional radiation technique based on a strong modulation of the dose deposition. Due to its specific pattern, pMBRT involves several dosimetry (peak and valley doses, peak-to-valley dose ratio (PVDR)) and geometrical ...
The protein extraction buffer (50 mm Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 150 mm NaCl, 5 mm DTT, 10% [v/v] glycerol, 1% [v/v] Nonidet P-40, and 1×Complete protease inhibitor cocktail) was added at a 1:3 ratio (tissue:buffer) to the powder and mixed well. The supernatant was harvested...
Aim:To investigate the clinical value of serum total prostate specific antigen(TPSA),the ratio of free PSA(FPSA) and TPSA(FPSA/TPSA),PSA density(PSAD) measurement in the diagnosis of prostate carcinoma. Methods: Serum TPSA and FPSA levels were measured with chemiluminescence immune assay in ...
We assess whether short-term recovery of urinary incontinence following robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) is associated with postoperative membranous urethral length (MUL) and position of vesico-urethral anastomosis (PVUA). Clinica
These data are represented by counting the number of times a particular event or condition occurs. There are many instances in inland fisheries research, wherein nominal/categorical data describe the phenomenon under investigations more adequately than interval/ratio data. Chi-square, a non-parametric...
100Given the PATHOS-D prediction that stress should activate inflammation as a prepotent protection against the risk of wounding (see below), it is intriguing that the 5HTTLPR short allele is associated with an increase in the ratio of circulating proinflammatory to anti-inflammatory cytokines (for...
nigrum harvested at the flowering stage was 93.4% of that at its seed maturity. The Cd-removing ratio by the shoots of S. nigrum harvested at the flowering stage was 87.5% of that at the mature stage. It was also found by observing the growth duration of S. nigrum that the frostless ...
Recently, S-1, a novel 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-based agent containing the strong dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) inhibitor, 5-chloro-2,4-dihydropyrimidine (CDHP) has been clinically used to treat various non-urothelial carcinomas (UC). High levels of
The skin is a barrier that protects the human body against environmental factors (physical, including solar radiation, chemicals, and pathogens). The integrity and, consequently, the effective metabolic activity of skin cells is ensured by the cell membr
