CONCLUSION: An abdominal MTT was efficaciously treated with extensive excision and abdominal wall reconstruction, eliminating the need for postoperative radiotherapy.... Read more

CONCLUSIONS: The eCuraU system stratified the risk of LNM in patients with UD-EGC after ER. It is strongly recommended that high-risk patients undergo additional surgery.... Read more

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In patients undergoing complex PCI, compared with angiographic guidance, intravascular imaging guidance was associated with similar reduction in the risk of target vessel failure among women and men. The treatment benefit of intravascular imaging-guided PCI showed no significant interaction between treatment strategy and sex.... Read more

Potential synergism between Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor and lenalidomide in treating aggressive B-cell lymphoma has been suggested. Here, the authors report a single-arm phase II clinical trial of combination of acalabrutinib, lenalidomide and rituximab (R2A) in patients with aggressive relapsed/refractory aggressive (R/R) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The primary endpoint... Read more

CONCLUSION: This study showed no significant differences in basal hormone levels (FSH, LH, and estradiol) before and after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination.... Read more

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine the unloading effect of total hip arthroplasty (THA) on the ipsilateral knee joint through the joint line convergence angle (JLCA) change and determine the changes in other coronal radiographic parameters after THA, and evaluate the sensitivity of JLCA....

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pathogenic variants in PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and GATOR1 complex genes resulting in hyperactivation of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 are a major cause of drug-resistant epilepsy and focal cortical malformations (FCM). Resective neurosurgery is often required to achieve seizure control in patients with mTORopathies due to... Read more

The clinical impact of different polymer technologies in newer-generation drug-eluting stents (DESs) for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) remains poorly understood. We investigated the efficacy and safety of durable polymer DESs (DP-DESs) compared with biodegradable polymer DESs (BP-DESs). A total of 620 patients who... Read more

CONCLUSIONS: The current cost-effectiveness analysis suggests that imaging-guided PCI is more cost-effective than angiography-guided PCI by reducing medical cost and increasing quality-of-life in complex coronary artery lesions in long-term follow-up.... Read more

Silver (Ag) metal-based structures are promising building blocks for next-generation photonics and electronics owing to their unique characteristics, such as high reflectivity, surface plasmonic resonance effects, high electrical conductivity, and tunable electron transport mechanisms. However, Ag structures exhibit poor sustainability in terms of device performance because harsh chemicals, particularly S^(2-)... Read more
