A new approach to an old problem.
A patient with progressive visual loss was found to have an optic nerve sheath meningioma. The patient was treated with stereotactic radiotherapy, a computer-guided stereotactic technique that minimizes the risk of radiation-induced optic neuropathy. Six months after treatment, the patient was doing well and showed no signs of radiation-induced optic neuropathy.
متن کاملHeart failure: new approaches to an old problem.
So I don’t think I have to tell you this since you guys basically practice medicine that heart failure is an enormously prevalent condition right now. The estimated prevalence on the most recent reliable data are about 6 million Americans with this diagnosis with an annual incident that’s approaching a million a year. The hospitalizations are really quite high and accordingly the cost of this i...
متن کاملAn old perspective on a new problem
An old perspective on a new problem Adipose tissue (AT) has evolved to be a highly dynamic organ, readily remodeling to meet the demands of an ever-changing metabolic landscape, as illustrated by the rapid changes in adipose depots of rodents undergoing various nutritional stresses. It takes as little as one week of high-fat feeding (HFF) in rodents for adipocytes to become enlarged, storing fo...
متن کاملEvolution of genome size: new approaches to an old problem.
Eukaryotic genomes come in a wide variety of sizes. Haploid DNA contents (C values) range > 80,000-fold without an apparent correlation with either the complexity of the organism or the number of genes. This puzzling observation, the C-value paradox, has remained a mystery for almost half a century, despite much progress in the elucidation of the structure and function of genomes. Here I argue ...
متن کاملA new tool for an old problem
Cancer is characterized by somatic mutations that provide a growth and survival advantage. The mutations are a function of chance because of the random nature of mutagenesis. However, the biology in the tumor cells drives the selection of mutations that are advantageous to the cancer. 1 in addition, the tumor environment exerts a selective pressure on the tumor. For example, the hypoxic environ...
