Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com The P6 regimen uses HD-Cytoxan at 4.2 gm/m2 dose is a toxic regimen and requires prolonged inpatient stay [6,7]. A standard alkylator dose (Cytoxan 1200 mg/m2 over 60 min) and 1800 mg of ifosfamide per square meter per day for five days modified for an outpatient regimen could maintain the quality of life with similar outcomes as seen with more aggr...

BACKGROUND Chemotherapy combinations that include an alkylating agent and a platinum coordination complex have high response rates in women with advanced ovarian cancer. Such combinations provide long-term control of disease in few patients, however. We compared two combinations, cisplatin and cyclophosphamide and cisplatin and paclitaxel, in women with ovarian cancer. METHODS We randomly ass...

The GSM Phase 2+ item CAMEL, which allows network operators to provide access to all the subscribed services including operator specific services even when the user is roaming internationally, is evaluated in depth.

We investigated the effect of 16 isoluminant chromatic surrounds on the perceived colour of an enclosed grey test-field at photopic (43 cd/m2) conditions. Stimuli were shown on a grey background identical to the test-field. Use of these stimuli implies that activations of receptoral (cS, cM, and cL) and postreceptoral (cM-cL, cS-(cM+cL)) mechanisms by surround colours are known quantitatively. ...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE In Switzerland, as in most developed countries, there has been a growing prevalence of excess weight in recent decades. However, within the country there may be regional variations. We investigated whether the trends in excess weight prevalence in the largest urban region differed from that in the rest of German Switzerland (GS). METHODS We used individual data from four ...

the aim of this study was investigation the combined effect of terminal heat of last growth season and competition between plants on phenology, yield and components yield in faba bean. a field experiment with 3 sowing dates (28 november 2011, 15 december 2011 and 7 january 2012) and 4 plant densities (8, 12, 16 and 20 plants m-2) was conducted on faba bean (cv. barkat) at agricultural science r...
