Toona sinensis (TS), which is also known as Cedrela sinensis, belongs to Meliaceae family, the compounds identified from this TS leaves possess a wide range of biologic functions, such as hypoglycemic effects, anti-LDL glycative activity, antioxidant activities, and inhibition of sudden acute
BACKGROUND
Infliximab is a monoclonal antibody against tumor necrosis factor alpha currently approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of Crohn's disease and rheumatoid arthritis. Recently, a controlled trial reported its effectiveness for psoriasis.
OBJECTIVE
The object of our study was to
The intraoperative diagnosis of pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors can be difficult. Frozen section diagnosis was requested on 87 neuroendocrine tumors including 58 typical carcinoids, 8 atypical carcinoids, 18 large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas, and 3 small cell carcinomas from 2405 patients that
In this study, we examined the symptom scores and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), p55 soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (sTNFR1), and p75 soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (sTNFR2) levels in the sera and nasal epithelial lining fluids (ELF) of 20 patients with Japanese cedar
Preoperative breast MRI does not decrease re-excision rates in patients who undergo lumpectomy. We evaluated concordance of tumor size on MRI and pathologic size in patients who underwent re-excision of margins after lumpectomy. A retrospective review of patients at the Cedars-Sinai Breast Center
The majority of ovarian tumors arise from the transformation of the ovarian surface epithelial cells, a single layer of cells surrounding the ovary. To identify genes that may contribute to the malignant phenotype of ovarian cancers, cDNA representational difference analysis was used to compare
OBJECTIVE
To examine the possible correlation between the amount of antigen and the level of soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (sTNFR), and to assess its biologic significance in allergic reactions.
METHODS
Randomized control trial.
METHODS
Twelve volunteers with Japanese cedar pollinosis and
OBJECTIVE
There are few studies analyzing surveillance for Type II endometrial cancer recurrence. Our objective was to determine the types of post treatment surveillance tests performed in our institution and the efficacy of these tests in detecting recurrence in type II endometrial cancer
One hundred fifty-four patients with a diagnosis of ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube carcinoma underwent 181 reassessment procedures to detect persistent or recurrent disease between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 1994 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. One hundred four laparoscopic
The prognostic role of small intrathoracic nodal metastases in primary patients with lung cancer has been controversial, and it is unclear how their presence should be used for pathologic staging and treatment planning. The intrathoracic lymph nodes from 266 clinical stage I non-small cell carcinoma
The purpose of our study was to examine single and serial determinations of five biomarkers in asymptomatic women at risk for epithelial ovarian cancer to define median values and trends in a cancer-free cohort. Women were enrolled in the Gilda Radner Ovarian Cancer Detection program at Cedars-Sinai
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the impact on free-breathing CBCT (FBCBCT) image quality to properly visualize the motion range of moving tumors as a function of imaging dose.
METHODS
A multi-purpose body phantom (QUASAR) with a cylindrical cedar wood (density = 0.330g/cc), and an embedded 3-cm diameter
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of dual-energy (DE) vs single-energy (SE) fluoroscopic imaging of lung tumors using a markerless template-based tracking algorithm.
METHODS
Ten representative patient breathing patterns were programmed into a Quasar™ motion phantom. The phantom was modified by
OBJECTIVE
To study the specific cardiac abnormalities associated with pheochromocytoma and to suggest a strategy for evaluating cardiac function in patients with pheochromocytoma.
METHODS
In this case-control study, we reviewed pathology records of patients seen at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
OBJECTIVE
The goal was to determine if there was a relation between the introduction of evidence-based radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment guidelines for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (CSMC) and subsequent RAI use. In addition, we compared RAI treatment rates for
