OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of cosmetic breast augmentation on subsequent infant feeding. PARTICIPANTS, DESIGN AND SETTING Population-based record linkage study of women giving birth in New South Wales, January 2006 - December 2011. Birth records were linked longitudinally to maternal hospitalisations up to 11 years before birth. Breast augmentation was identified by surgical procedure ...

We studied the effect of nitric oxide (*NO) on the anticancer activity of doxorubicin. When MCF-7 human breast cancer cells were exposed to an aqueous solution of *NO delivered as a bolus 30 min prior to doxorubicin, the cytotoxic effect as measured in a clonogenic assay was increased (doxorubicin alone, 40% survival, doxorubicin plus *NO, 5% survival). The *NO donor diethylamine nitric oxide, ...

Injection of synthetic fillers for soft tissue augmentation is increasing over the last decade. One of the most common materials used is hyaluronic acid (HA) that is safe and temporary filler for soft tissue augmentation. We present a case of 54-year-old female who experienced vascular occlusion and nasal alar necrosis following HA injection to the nasolabial folds. She suffered from pain, necr...

This study was undertaken in an attempt to understand the mechanism of antitumor action of pyrimidinones alone and in combination with cyclophosphamide (CY). Pyrimidinones such as 2-amino-5-bromo-6-(3-fluorophenyl)-4(3H)pyrimidinone (ABMFPP) were relatively nontoxic toward murine L1210 leukemia cell growth in vitro with the concentration of drug required for a 50% inhibition of cell growth bein...

Its main function is inhibition of neutrophil elastase, a non-specifi c protease released by activated or dying neutrophils. In individuals with healthy concentrations of α1 antitrypsin, the fragile alveolar structures of the lung paren...
