Patients with programmed death-ligand 1 positive (PD-L1+), locally advanced or metastatic, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have a poor prognosis and treatment options are limited. Sitravatinib, selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, reduces the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells regulatory T cells, promotes expansion migration antitumor cytotoxic increases ratio M1/M2-pola...

Pulse field ablation (PFA) is a promising energy modality for cardiac due to its speed, tissue selectivity, and potential ability create consistent transmural lesions Evaluate PFA created using an innovative catheter design combining focal, linear pulmonary vein (PV) PEF was performed 8F bidirectional with 2mm tip 4 ring electrodes through which 3.5F loop (6 9 rings, 3mm length on 19mm diameter...

Information on the incidence of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) is essential for models of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of screening programmes. We developed two independent estimates of CT incidence in women in England: one based on an incidence study, with estimates 'recalibrated' to the general population using data on setting-specific relative risks, and allowing for clearance and re...

BACKGROUND The prognostic value of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy findings and mitotic activity in melanoma has been confirmed in the literature, but the relation between them has not been well established. OBJECTIVES The main objective was to describe and analyze the correlation between SLN biopsy results and the mitotic rate in patients treated for melanoma in our hospital. METHODS A to...

The equations in the Experiment 1 section under the subheading “Results and Discussion” are incorrect. The first three paragraphs of that section, containing the corrected equations, are as follows: We present the data corrected for the estimates of recollection and familiarity: We first calculated, for each participant, the proportion of Remember (R) and Know (K) responses by dividing a given ...

BACKGROUND Outcome measures for atopic dermatitis (AD) patients with pigmented skin have neither been developed nor validated. OBJECTIVE To compare the reliability and validity of four common AD outcome measures in patients with various levels of skin darkness. METHOD The inter- and intra-rater reliability and construct validity of the EASI (Eczema Area and Severity Index), objective-SCORin...
