Tumor necrosis factor (TNF is used synonymously with TNF-alpha) is a pleiotropic cytokine. The effects of TNF were first described in the last century, but the soluble factor was discovered in 1975. Now TNF is one of the most important cytokines investigated by scientists from different fields. This
Radiation-induced cerebral necrosis has been well documented in the literature. Because radiation induced cerebral necrosis can occur to any part of the central nervous system that falls within the irradiated area, the visual pathway is highly susceptible to damage as it passes from the eye to the
The purpose of this study was to present our comparison of the clinical outcome of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated with whole-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (whole-field-IMRT) or split-field-IMRT.We retrospectively studied 388 Five cases of aflatoxicosis in pigs in southern Queensland are described. One peracute case where aflatoxin concentrations of up to 5000 micrograms aflatoxin B1/kg were demonstrated in stomach contents was presumed to be caused by consumption of mouldy bread. High levels of toxins were also present
Uterus transplantation (UTx) has been successfully introduced as a treatment option for women with absolute uterine factor infertility (AUFI). AUFI representing approximately 3% to 5% of the female general population is linked to either congenital uterine agenesis (Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether occurrence of early radiation effects in lung tissue depends on local dose only.
METHODS
Twenty-five percent, 50%, 66%, 88%, or 100% of the rat lung was irradiated using single fractions of 150-MeV protons. For all volumes, in-field and out-of-field dose-response
Soybean vein necrosis-associated virus (SVNaV), a newly discovered tospovirus that infects soybean, was first described as widespread in a number of southern and midwestern states, but so far has not been reported in Ohio (1). Here we describe its occurrence in six different soybean leaf samples
Soybean vein necrosis virus (SVNV) causes a new emerging disease of soybean that has been recorded in more than 10 states (1,2,3,4) of the United States, but so far no information is available about its presence in soybean crops of Oklahoma. Surveys of commercial soybean fields were conducted for
We describe two cases of acute retinal necrosis (ARN) in a post renal transplant diabetic patient and a pregnant female in the first trimester. Serial ultra wide field imaging (UWFI) with comprehensive ocular examination was done to monitor the progression of the disease. All the cases responded
BACKGROUND
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is among the few therapeutic options for glioblastoma that recurs after standard radiation and chemotherapy, but its efficacy has been limited.
METHODS
Since November 2007, the authors have modified the clinical target volume by adding a 0.5- to 1-cm margin
The effect of nontransmural necrosis on epicardial potential distributions was studied in 13 dogs. In previous studies, left ventricular epicardial pacing generated epicardial potential maps at QRS onset with a negative central area and two positive areas that faced the portions of the wavefront
Arteriosclerosis of the coronary artery has been described as a 'fact of life' for Pacific and Atlantic salmonids due to the high prevalence in spawning fish. The lesions are believed to be the result of overstretching of the highly distensible bulbus arteriosus whereby the endothelium of the main
