PURPOSE To report our 20 yr experience of definitive radiotherapy for early glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).

BACKGROUND Repeatability of the oral sugar test (OST) has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that OST glucose, insulin, active (aGLP-1) and total (tGLP-1) glucagon-like peptide 1, and high-molecular-weight (HMW) adiponectin results would be repeatable. ANIMALS Fifty-three horses from a Tennessee research facility (n = 23) and private practice in Missouri (n = 30), including anim...

Results 423 attendants completed the survey (response rate: 66%) of which 342 ICU nurses were included for further analysis. These are employed in general (73%) or university hospitals (27%) and are working in mixed (66%), surgical (18%) or medical (13%) ICUs. Nurses working in university hospitals reported higher availability of weaning protocols (44% vs 29%; p = 0.016). 22% of nurses reported...

BACKGROUND Large-tip (10 mm) catheters (LTCs) and open-irrigation-tip catheters (OITCs), both capable of creating large lesions, are more effective than conventional catheters for cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation. However, it is not clear whether complete CTI block can be achieved more efficiently using an LTC or an OITC. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of radiofrequ...

Suicide levels in England and Wales during 1979-83 were low among males from the Indian subcontinent (SMR 73) and significantly high in young Indian women (age-specific ratios 273 and 160 at ages 15-24 and 25-34 respectively). Suicide levels were low in Caribbeans (SMRs 81 and 62 in men and women respectively) and high in East Africans (SMRs 128 and 148 in men and women respectively). The exces...

We investigated a recent (January 1999 to December 2009) cohort of 95 elderly Hodgkin lymphoma subjects. At diagnosis, median age was 67 years (range, 60-89 years), whereas 61% had significant comorbidity, 26% were unfit, 17% had a geriatric syndrome, and 13% had loss of activities of daily living. Overall response rate to therapy was 85%, whereas incidence of bleomycin lung toxicity was 32% (w...

To compare this association with that for patients in second complete remission (CR2) and to examine the quantitative impact of MRD, we studied 253 consecutive patients receiving myeloablative HCT for A...
