In 2013, 42 million children under the age of 5 years were overweight or obese. In the context of obesity, we recently showed that (1) peripheral lymphocytes of obese children/adolescents had an 8-fold increase in double strand breaks (DSBs), expressed as g-H2AX foci, than normal weight adolescents,
BACKGROUND
After a successful trabeculectomy, a sudden intraocular pressure decrease may alter the intracranial to intraocular pressure ratio and cause decompression retinopathy. Frequent Valsalva maneuvers may also play a role in its pathogenesis. This condition may manifest as multiple retinal
BACKGROUND
Epidemiological studies indicate that obesity is associated with an increased risk of 20-25% with several types of cancer.
OBJECTIVE
The frequency of chromosome aberrations was evaluated in lymphocytes from postmenopausal obese and non-obese women.
METHODS
Twenty obese and 20 non-obese
J.W. is a 68-year-old white female who noted an "anal growth" 1 year prior to admission. She also complained of bleeding from her rectum when she was constipated. She attributed these symptoms to hemorrhoids. She noted increasing pain and more bleeding 1 month prior to admission. Locally applied
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this retrospective report was to evaluate clinical features associated with profound neutropenia in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis who were treated with heated intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIIC) followed by early postoperative intraperitoneal
OBJECTIVE
To determine the incidence of, visual loss from, and perioperative risk factors for suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH) occurring during or after glaucoma filtering surgery.
METHODS
Contact B-Scan ultrasonography was used to evaluate at a median of 15 days postoperatively, one eye of 158
Growth hormone (GH), which has been extracted from the pituitary gland since early times, has become easily available by the advance of genetic engineering in recent year. Its clinical application to treatment in various fields, involving obesity, wounds, fractures, gastric ulcers and so on, is
Eight-MHz radiofrequency hyperthermia (H) using a Thermotron-RF Model 8, and its combination with irradiation (RH), anticancer drugs (CH) or anticancer drugs plus irradiation (CRH), were carried out for a total of 48 urological malignancies: 10 cases of renal cancer, 1 of renal pelvic cancer, 2 of
Eight-MHz radiofrequency hyperthermia (H) using Thermotron-RF8, and its combination with irradiation (RH), anticancer drugs (CH) or anticancer drugs plus irradiation (CRH), were carried out for a total of 93 urological malignancies: 19 cases of renal cancer, 3 of renal pelvic cancer, 4 of ureteral
BACKGROUND
Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) accounts for <5% of all urothelial cancers. Although the main treatment is radical nephroureterectomy (NU), oncologic outcomes are not comparable to lower tract urothelial cancers. Identifying prognostic factors can help guide management and
