Selected Drugs Ivermectin has anti-parasitic effect along with anti-viral activity against a broad range of viruses in vitro. Ivermectin was identified as an inhibitor of interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) integrase protein (IN) and the importin (IMP) α/β1 heterodimer

Introduction Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common malignant disease with over 1 million new cases each year worldwide (1) The outcome of surgery for rectal cancer has improved substantially during the past two decades due to TME, which involves complete removal of the mesorectum with

PURPOSE AND AIMS - Aim 1 - To evaluate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) vs best medical treatment in essential tremor (ET) in a randomized, single-blinded controlled trial. - Aim 2 - To compare the effect of DBS in the established target in the ventrolateral (VL)-thalamus/ nucleus

Neurotoxicity is mainly associated with tacrolimus and cyclosporin, amounting to 10 - 30% for CS and up to 32% for tacrolimus.(2) . Sirolimus, everolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil lack the neurotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (3-4). Neurotoxicity mostly occurs in the early postoperative period

The intermedius ventralis nucleus of the thalamus (VIM), which represents the target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in essential tremor, still remains invisible on 1,5 tesla MRI (the only magnetic field available for stereotactic surgery). The target coordinates currently used are based on

The intermedius ventralis nucleus of the thalamus (VIM), which represents the target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in essential tremor, still remains invisible to imaging in spite of the development of new MR sequences. The coordinates currently used in the classical (ACPC) system are so

Stroke or unsufficient cerebral circulation is a non-traumatic disease due to occlusion or rupture of brain blood circulation characterized by neurological deficits such as loss of motor control, cognitive impairment, oral disorder or sensory changes in one half of the body resulting from changes.

Laparoscopy has been adopted for advantages that include decreased adhesion formation, improved cosmesis, decreased post-operative pain, and shorter recovery times. The patient benefits of robotic surgery are thought to be essentially the same as conventional laparoscopy: decreased length of stay,

Specific aims: -Determine if infiltrating the cervical stroma with local anesthetic prior to performing a hysterectomy will reduce postoperative pain scores, and hence increase patient satisfaction. Secondary aims: - Determine if there is a difference in baseline pain depending on additional

This ExAblate Transcranial system was built atop the ExAblate Body system technology, which has received EMA and CE approvals for the treatment of uterine fibroids and bone metastasis palliation, and is currently being evaluated under various EMA Investigational Device Exemptions "IDE". It should be

BACKGROUND Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder [OCD] is a psychiatric disorder with a lifetime prevalence of 2% which is mainly characterized by obsessional ideas and compulsive behaviours and rituals. Many patients show improvement under cognitive behavioural and/or pharmacological treatment. A minority

1.0 Background While atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia requiring therapy, it is also associated with increased risk of stroke, heart failure, myocardial infarction, dementia, and death. The number of Americans affected with AF is expected to surge to nearly 16

A. Specific Aims: Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive motor symptoms of tremor, rigidity, and bradykinesia. The prevalence is estimated at 102-109/100,000 and increases with age. It is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after

Inclusion Criteria Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (2 of 3 of the cardinal symptoms, tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity) Mini Mental State Examination > 24 Anti-parkinsonian medications stable for one month Hoehn and Yahr II-IV Exclusion Criteria Atypical parkinsonism History of seizure, drug addiction

Patient assessment A prospective study addressing perioperative outcomes and postoperative patient discomfort after thyroidectomy was commenced in April 2009 and is currently continuing. All patients were told about the operative techniques involved in conventional open and robotic thyroidectomy,
