Chemotherapy should not be withheld from patients with an indwelling pleural catheter for malignant pleural effusion.

A 1e12% rate of pleural infection has been observed in patients with an indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) to manage malignant pleural effusion (MPE), leading to concern that systemic chemotherapy may increase infection risk. This study aimed to determine whether chemotherapy increases the infection rate in patients with an IPC. Data were collected from a prospectively maintained database, hospi...

MRS Shimming: An Important Point Which Should not be Ignored

Introduction: Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a well-known device for analyzing the biological fluids metabolically. Obtaining accurate and reliable information via MRS needs a homogeneous magnetic field in order to provide well-defined peaks and uniform water suppression. There are lots of reasons which can disturb the magnetic field homogeneity which can be corrected by a proc...

Let Should Not Be Generalised

From the dawn of time, all derivatives of the classic Hindley-Milner type system have supported implicit generalisation of local letbindings. Yet, as we will show, for more sophisticated type systems implicit let-generalisation imposes a disproportionate complexity burden. Moreover, it turns out that the feature is very seldom used, so we propose to eliminate it. The payoff is a substantial sim...
