Identification and treatment of CRT nonresponders who have poor LV lead position is a significant clinical problem. To describe how new technology for measuring electrical dyssynchrony can be used to identify patients with optimize their device programming or without revision. An ECG system 9 anterior/9 posterior leads was quantify novel measure called cardiac resynchronization index (CRI), def...

Proteomic technology as a combination of bio che mical procedures with high throughput bio analytical techniques has proven to be an invaluable tool for biology and biomedical research, especially during the last decade. Thousands of proteins of any kind of biological material – cell lines, tissues or body fluids – can nowadays be analyzed routinely gene rating vast numbers of data, related to ...

We conducted a prospective cohort study in a single tertiary hospital with the aim of assessing predictors of multidrug-resistant bacteremia in 307 cases of febrile neutropenia in adult patients with cancer. On multivariate analysis using stepwise logistic regression, age (P = .009), duration of neutropenia (P = .022), and presence of an indwelling central venous catheter (P = .022) were associ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) has a long premalignant phase and relatively slow progression from organ defined invasive disease to local and distant metastatic disease and as such there is ample opportunity to identify patients at a curable stage (1). Current tests are either non-specific as with faecal occult blood testing (2) or invasive. Analysis of DNA markers in stool represents an attractive al...
