Elevated risk for gastric adenocarcinoma can be predicted from histomorphology

Can allosteric regulation be predicted from structure?

D the last decade, the classical view of a protein existing in equilibrium between discrete conformational states has undergone a radical transformation. Experimental observations, particularly those obtained from NMRdetected hydrogenydeuterium exchange, indicate that even under native conditions proteins need to be considered as complex statistical ensembles (see for example refs. 1–13). In th...

Can Cascades be Predicted?

A famous instance is a picture of a receipt taken by a customer at a hunting and fishing chain store called Cabela. The receipt listed a 2.3%“medical excise tax,” which was supposedly levied as part of the Affordable Care Act. This was seen as evidence that there is a hidden tax that consumers are paying for the ACA. The store later cleared this up as being a “software glitch” on their part. Th...

Can ICU admission be predicted?

IN TRAOPERATIVE RADIATION THERAPY FOR GASTRIC ADENOCARCINOMA

Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) is a multidisciplinary approach in which residual tumors or tumor beds are directly irradiated during a surgical procedure. To evaluate its efficacy, from 1985, we conducted a prospective study including non-metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma treated by surgery, IORT (15 Grays) and postoperative external beam radiotherapy (44 Grays). Up to 1993, 51 ca...

Motion thresholds can be predicted from contrast discrimination.

The detection thresholds for oscillatory motion and flicker were compared across a wide range of pedestal contrasts, spatial frequencies, and temporal frequencies in both foveal and peripheral vision. Motion and flicker stimuli were both generated by summation of a counterphase test grating with a static pedestal grating. For the oscillatory motion task the test and the pedestal were presented ...
