Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and dendritic cells (DCs) activation/maturation One of the important approaches to successful cancer immunotherapy is generation of specific T cell responses by dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are the most potent antigen-presenting cells for naive T cells, because their
Between 30 and 50% of patients who contract COVID 19 will be asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic. This fact will not give rise to the consult, and will directly affect a notorious sub-registration of the cases.
The second, even more disturbing, premise is that these patients are as contagious as the
In China, 10% of adults have diabetes and 30% of people have prediabetes. In Hong Kong, 2 in 100 adults develop pre‐diabetes every year and in 2014, 9% of adults have prediabetes. People with prediabetes have increased risk of cardiovascular disease and development of diabetes. Once developed,
In recent years, the therapeutic strategies for lung cancer have been enriched with small molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy. In this retrospective study, we will observe the change in NLR and explore its possible association with survival among advanced lung cancer patients receiving
To meet the objectives of the study, an interventional double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) design will be used in this study. A placebo group will be included in parallel with the treatment group in this trail. Forty patients (aged 35-65 years) who diagnosed with mild to moderately active
Objective:
Cesarean section (CS) is a major surgical intervention that affects women at childbearing age. Scarring from CS is expected but certainly not desirable, potentially causes discomfort and psychological distress. Emerging evidence indicates that epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays crucial
Postoperative complications of any sort occurs in many of the patients undergoing high risk cancer surgery such as surgery for pancreatic, esophageal or ovarian malignancy (3, 4) These patients have a risk of wound infection mainly due to malnutrition and challenging surgical conditions (5, 6) A
Early clinical trials of immunotherapy in CRC have provided first evidence of activity of adoptive cell vaccines combining inactivated autologous tumor cells and BCG, a Toll Like Receptor (TLR) agonist. RFA induces tumor cell necrosis and apoptosis, leading to the activation of anti-tumoral immunity
The prevalence of childhood obesity is increasing worldwide. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents has risen dramatically from 4% to 18% in 40 years.
Cause of obesity is gene-environment interactions. Recent evidence suggests that the gut microbiota is involved in
Although anal canal squamous cell carcinoma (ACSCC) is rare in developed countries, it has shown an annual increase of 4% in its incidence in Brazil, and according to data from the Oncocenter Foundation of São Paulo (FOSP), 2,338 cases were diagnosed in 2000 and 2016.
The standard treatment for
Objectives / Specific Aims
Normal aging is characterized by changes in the immune system that result in increased susceptibility to infections, poor response to new vaccine antigens, loss of protection offered by previous vaccinations and decreased immune surveillance. Despite the chronic
TRIAL DESIGN
This will be a single-centre double-blind randomised-controlled feasibility study.
TRIAL SETTING
This study will take place at Leeds Teaching Hospital Trust (LTHT), Leeds UK. Participants will be approached whilst admitted as inpatients (typically the paediatric haematology oncology
Seroma formation is the most common complication after mastectomy and places patients at risk of associated morbidities. Microporous Polysaccharide Hemospheres (MPH) consists of hydrophilic, plant based, polysaccharide particles and is currently used as an absorbable hemostatic agent. An animal
Multiple myeloma is an incurable blood cancer of plasma cells that occurs in older individuals with a median age at diagnosis of 69 years and a median overall survival of 6-7 years [Kumar S.K., et al. Leukemia, 2014; Rollig C., et al. Lancet., 2015]. Over the past years novel agents have been
Melioidosis is caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei, a Gram-negative saprophytic environmental bacterium that is an important emerging tropical infection. There are an estimated 165,000 cases and 89,000 deaths world-wide each year. Eighty-four percent of cases are in SE Asia where mortality is 40%;
