The aim of this study was to systematically review the efficacy and safety of iodine-125 brachytherapy combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced lung cancer. PubMed, MEDLINE, EBSCO, FMJS and Web of Science were searched to obtain randomized controlled trials (RCTs), published in English and Chinese, until February 2016. The evaluating indicators were complete response (CR), partial r...

The authors examined whether responses of the 2 hands were completely unitized when participants (N = 36) produced bimanual responses to lateralized targets in a Simon-type paradigm. Their primary aim was to investigate whether lateralized stimuli differentially influence the response dynamics of the 2 hands. Simon effects were obtained in reaction time and force; components of the bimanual res...

abstract in order to optimize the water management in agriculture in semi arid and arid conditions water-salinity function should be evaluated. in order to evaluate salinity and deficit irrigation two experiments were conducted in 2008 and 2009. kochia was grown with six levels of saline water (1.5, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 ds/m) and three levels of applied water (25, 75, and 125 percent of the wa...

The purpose of the present clinical research was to establish the major site of resistance and obstruction in patients with severe, symptomatic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We used a noninvasive technique by measuring airflow in a plethysmograph after patients breathed air and after breathing a mixture of 80 percent helium and 20 percent oxygen. In group 1 were 14 patients (mean age, ...
