Cutoff values of PWL (6.3 and 12.3%) were confirmed to be more important and were proposed to differentiate patients into low-, medium-, and high-risk NPC groups, with their 5-y progression-free survival (84.5 versus 77.9%, P=0.046; 77.9 versus 67.3%, P=0.046). PWL was an independent adverse prognostic factor (P=0.002) for NPC.

PWL is a…[Read more]

Functional deficits of the forehead and midface can pose significant problems for patients varying from mild asymmetry to various degrees of functional impairment including total paralysis. Our objectives were to analyse the use of bio-absorbable implants to reconstruct forehead and midface deficits, all of which were for functional (noncosmetic)…[Read more]

Copyright © 2020 Sunny Patel et al.Introduction. Abnormal pacemaker behavior can occur during radiofrequency ablation. The behaviors are varied and include loss of capture. The mechanisms in this context have not been well described in the literature. We describe a case of epicardial unipolar lead loss of ventricular capture during pulmonary vein…[Read more]

Monitoring of triphenyltin (TPhT) in the environment, particularly to control its misuse in agriculture, is of great importance because of its high toxicity. selleck chemicals llc In this work, methods for determination of TPhT residues in surface water and soil samples by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were…[Read more]

In this study, we critically review and discuss the current knowledge on anthocyanin diversity, genetics and the molecular mechanisms controlling anthocyanin accumulation in carrots. We also provide a view of the current knowledge gaps and advancement needs as regards developing and applying innovative molecular tools to improve the yield, product…[Read more]

Physiological studies have found that the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in controlling blood pressure values. This paper, based on machine learning approaches, analysed short-term heart rate variability to determine differences in autonomic nervous function between hypertensive patients and normal population. The…[Read more]

Borrelia burgdorferi s.s. is a Gram-negative spirochaete, the aetiological agent of Lyme disease, the most common vector-borne disease in the Northern hemisphere. Reports on the presence of B. burgdorferi in central Mexico have been strongly criticized, since these were based only on unspecific serological methods. Furthermore, the worldwide…[Read more]
