Purpose: Neuronavigation, explored as an intra-operative adjunct for brain tumor surgery three decades ago, has become globally utilized with a promising upward trajectory. This study aims to chart its success from idea to adoption and evolution within the US and globally. Methods: A three-...
Papillary craniopharyngiomas (PCPs) are a rare type of brain tumor that cause substantial morbidity for patients. While surgery and radiation are often used to treat PCPs, incomplete removal of the tumor and toxicity from radiation can leave patients with life-long health challenges after treatment,...
During the clinical trial, an epilepsy patient with a brain tumor in the language area achieved full coverage of 418 Chinese syllables decoding within seven days of the surgery. The accuracy rate was as high as 71% for 142 commonly used Chinese syllables, and a delay was less than 100 milli...
Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of patients in a treatment group who have a partial or complete response to therapy over a certain time period. In studies, it helps to measure the cancer-killing properties of a medicine. ORR was a secondary outcome in DESTINY-Breast...

My heart rate and my body temperature have both gone up since I started avoiding the foods you say are bad for my thyroid. I am not as fatigued…so, that is an improvement.” Jeanne Kerschus,Panama “I Am Getting More Energy and Am Sleeping Much Better.” “Thank you, Tom. I’m ...
Important considerations for these techniques include: 1) changes to myocardial structure and function, which can vary significantly within the same heart based on proximity to the pacemaker; and 2) development of HF directly related to pacing rate and duration. Furthermore, atrial pacing has ...
The authors concluded from their findings that despite the dramatic fivefold increase in the implantation rate of the clip, the procedure has very low early-stage complication rates during hospitalization. "Catheter-assisted valvular heart valve therapy has evolved from a niche treatment of inoperable ...
