in patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: [image: gr1ac.sml] Activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is the most common event in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), resulting in cellular proliferation, angiogenesis, and radiation resistance [1]. The importance of EGFR signaling was demonstrated by trials that showed improvement in overall survival (OS) when the EGFR inhibitor cetuximab was added to radiation or chemotherapy [2,3].

Endoscopic Septoplasty—Two Handed Technique with Endoscope Holder

A Novel Approach: AbstractThe popularity of endoscopes has been expanding not only in diagnostics but also in therapeutics. The traditional septal surgery also has come under the purview of endoscopic surgery in the last few decades. Endoscopic septoplasty has definitely many advantages over the conventional procedure. But the only disadvantage of endoscopic surgery is that it is a single handed technique as the other hand is used for holding the endoscope which may compromise the overall surgical time as the hemostasis and suctioning of the surgical field off the blood cannot be ...περισσότερα »

Minimal invasive treatment of life-threatening bleeding caused by cardiopulmonary resuscitation-associated liver injury: a case report
Abstract Background Life-threatening bleeding caused by liver injury due to chest compressions is a rare complication in otherwise successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Surgical intervention has been suggested to achieve bleeding control; however, reported mortality is high. In this report, we present a brief literature review and a case report in which use of a less invasive… Continue reading Minimal invasive treatment of life-threatening bleeding caused by cardiopulmonary resuscitation-associated liver injury: a case report

Materials and methods Retrospective data were collected on 170 patients with ACTH-dependent CS (149 CD, 21 EAS) referring to two endocrinology units, focusing on three non-invasive tests: dexamethasone 8 mg overnight… Continue reading Second-line tests in the differential diagnosis of ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome
The association between social support and smoking status in cancer survivors with frequent and infrequent mental distress: results from 10 US states, 2010
Conclusions Rates of current smokers were lower among cancer survivors who received social support and reported infrequent mental distress. Implications for Cancer Survivors Psychosocial screening may help health care professional identify smokers with frequent mental distress who require more intensive smoking cessation interventions.

Abstract Background Life-threatening bleeding caused by liver injury due to chest compressions is a rare complication in otherwise successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Surgical intervention has been suggested to achieve bleeding control; however, reported mortality is high. In this report, we present a brief literature review and a case report in which use of a less invasive […]

Abstract Background The present study explored the treatment outcome of daclatasvir (DCV) and asunaprevir (ASV) therapy combining oral direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) for chronic hepatitis C (HCV) including liver cirrhosis according to resistance-associated variants (RAVs) in NS3/NS5A region. Methods Overall, 641 patients enrolled in Japan with HCV-1b received DCV and ASV for 24 weeks. Baseline drug-resistant mutations L31F/I/M/V, Q54H, P58S, A92K, and Y93H in the HCV NS5A region and V36A, T54A/S, Q80K/L/R, R155K/T/Q, A156S/V/T, and D168A/E/H/T/V in the HCV NS3/4A region wer... περισσότερα »
Mechanisms of Change in the ARC Organizational Strategy: Increasing Mental Health Clinicians’ EBP Adoption Through Improved Organizational Culture and Capacity
Abstract The development of efficient and scalable implementation strategies in mental health is restricted by poor understanding of the change mechanisms that increase clinicians’ evidence-based practice (EBP) adoption. This study tests the cross-level change mechanisms that link an empirically-supported organizational strategy for supporting implementation (labeled ARC for Availability, Responsiveness, and Continuity) to mental health clinicians’ EBP adoption and use. Four hundred seventy-five mental health clinicians in 14 children’s mental health agencies were randomly assigned...περισσότερα »
The Healthcare Needs of Latinos with Serious Mental Illness and the Potential of Peer Navigators
Abstract Latinos with serious mental illness get sick and die much younger than other adults. In this paper, we review findings of a community based participatory research project meant to identify important healthcare needs, barriers to these needs, solutions to the barriers, and the promise of peer navigators as a solution. Findings from focus groups reflected general concerns of people with mental illness (e.g., insurance, engagement, accessibility) and Latinos with serious mental illness (e.g., immigration, language, and family). Feedback and analyses especially focused on the ... περισσότερα »
Scientific evidence on the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in oral and maxillofacial surgery
AbstractPurpose This study aimed to identify the main indications for the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) for bone repair and maintenance in the maxilla and mandible through a review of clinical trials evaluating the viability of using rhBMP-2 to delay the installation of dental implants, thus allowing satisfactory bone formation and long-term osseointegration. Methods Literature search of the PubMed/Medline databases was performed using the following MeSH index terms—“bone morphogenetic protein 2” and “dentistry”.

Prognostic value of preoperative von Willebrand factor plasma levels in patients with Glioblastoma
Abstract Circulating biomarker for malignant gliomas could improve both differential diagnosis and clinical management of brain tumor patients. Among all gliomas, glioblastoma (GBM) is considered the most hypervascularized tumor with activation of multiple proangiogenic signaling pathways that enhance tumor growth. To investigate whether preoperative antigen plasma level of von Willebrand Factor (VWF:Ag) might be possible… Continue reading Prognostic value of preoperative von Willebrand factor plasma levels in patients with Glioblastoma
