Xenografts derived from the neoplastic tissues of children with rhabdomyosarcoma have been used in immune-deprived mice to examine the efficacy of agents known to be active against this disease, and in others that received either limited or no clinical evaluation. Two models were derived; xenografts were established from tumors obtained from either (a) untreated patients or (b) from patients wh...

This work describes the fabrication of a flexible all-solid-state interdigital in-planar microsupercapacitor (μSC) using in situ synthesized ZIF-67 thin films as finger-electrode materials, platinum (Pt) film current collector, laser print technology for patterns, and low-cost commercial polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheet substrates, assembled with NaOH/PVA gel electrolyte. are onto PET sub...

Systemic mastocytosis is characterized by bone marrow involvement, which requires a bone marrow biopsy for diagnostic work-up. We questioned whether bone marrow involvement could be predicted using biochemical markers. We selected patients with various symptoms suggestive of indolent systemic mastocytosis, of whom 63 ultimately had bone marrow involvement. Patients suspected of aggressive masto...
