Twenty-six cows died after accidental exposure to boron fertilizer. Cows developed diarrhea, weakness, ataxia, signs of depression, and died, usually within a few hours. Seizure-like behavior was noticed in 2 cows, and 2 were suspected of aborting. High boron concentrations in tissues from affected
The purpose of this study was to clarify the radiation injury in acute or delayed stage after boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) using mixed epithermal- and thermal neutron beams in patients with malignant glioma. Eighteen patients with malignant glioma underwent mixed epithermal- and thermal
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) using a novel protocol for the boronophenylalanine-fructose (BPA-F) infusion.
METHODS
This phase II study included 30 patients, 26-69 years old, with a good performance status of
LD50 values in mice for 4,4,8,8-tetraethyl-3,3a,4,8-tetrahydro-3a,4a,4-diazabora-S-indacene (Myborin) were determined by the ip, po, and sc routes. The LD50 value for ip was 69.5 mg/kg found by the method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon, with upper and lower confidence limits of 77.8 and 62.1 mg/kg. Oral
Following acute accidental death of 26 cows exposed to boron fertilizer, effects of inorganic boron treatment in goats were studied. Goats were orally dosed with toxic but sublethal amounts of the fertilizer. Multiple hematologic and serum chemistry parameters were assessed, as were cerebrospinal
With the advent of boric acid insecticides, accidental ingestion of the compound can be encountered in animals. Toxic levels of boric acid most commonly cause vomiting, depression, and, occasionally, diarrhea. Boric acid is, however, cytotoxic to all cells. If a sufficiently high level is ingested,
Bevacizumab is expected to constitute a new treatment modality for radiation necrosis. In the present cases, we observed a recurrence of radiation necrosis after temporary improvement by bevacizumab treatment. Re-treatment with bevacizumab controlled the necrosis again. A 39-year-old male and a
