Objective The mortality of patients with locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is high, and pathological complete response (pCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is associated with improved prognosis. This retrospective study was designed and powered to investigate the ability of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) to predict pat...

background: irreversible electroporation (ire) is a novel tumor ablation technique. ire is associated with high electrical fields and is often reported in conjunction with thermal damage caused by joule heating. for good response to surgery it is crucial to produce minimum thermal damage in both tumoral and healthy tissues named non-thermal irreversible electroporation(ntire). non-thermal irrev...

abstract background: asterocytoma is the most common primary human brain tumor which has the most lethal hazard among tumors in human central nervous system. heat shock proteins play an active role in cancer cells pathways through their effects on tumor cell proliferation, tumor differentiation, malignancy, metastasis, and cell death. hsp 70 is a 70 kd protein that its expression change has bee...

131I-TM-601 is a 36-amino acid peptide, called chlorotoxin (TM-601), derived from scorpion venom labeled with I-131. TM-601 binds a receptor on the surface of tumor cells, and not on normal cells. A single dose of 131I-TM-601 administered intracranially to human xenografted mouse models of glioma has been shown to extend survival up to 269% in multiple studies. 131I-TM-601 is in a multi-center ...

brown tumors may occur secondary to hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure (ckd). they are increasingly rare because hyperparathyroidism in now diagnosed and treated at an early stage. we report 67-year-old man who had been on hemodialysis for crf for over 3 years, who presented with back pain over the thoracolumbar junction from 2 years ago and because of pain he could not ...
