7509 Background: The FLIPI is potentially useful in predicting clinical outcome and comparing treatment results among clinical studies in FL. We recently reported the results of I-131 tositumomab as frontline treatment in 76 pts with advanced-stage FL (NEJM 325:441, 2005). A single 1-week course resulted in a 95% and a 75% overall and complete response (CR) rate, respectively, and at a median f...

a 38 years old male worker presented with an advanced left side retroperitoneal mass, with metastatic involvement of 11th thoracic vertebra (t11) and resultant paraparesia and paresthesia . the histopathologic examination and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the diagnosis of paraganglioma. decompression laminectomy and fixation of involved vertebra resulted to considerable symptomatic rel...

Background. The most appropriate therapy for papillary microcarcinoma (PMC) is controversial. Methods. We reviewed the therapy and outcome of 407 patients with PMC. Results. Three hundred-eighty patients underwent total thyroidectomy, and 349 patients received I-131 therapy. The median followup was 5.3 years. Forty patients developed recurrent disease. On univariate analysis, development of dis...

Tositumomab and iodine I 131 tositumomab (Bexaar) therapeutic regimen targets monoclonal antibodies against the CD20 antigen expressed in non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This article reviews the mechanism of action and clinical indications for this regimen.

After adopting and extending the “test of truth as effective action” that Newell proposes in “A Theory of Interdisciplinary Studies,” this article proposes “living well” as the goal of knowledge processes. With this in mind, it explores disciplinarity—the unspoken assumption underlying Newell’s argument. Disciplinarity is discovered to be an historical and cultural phenomenon, demonstrating the...

In previous work, we demonstrated an algorithm that treats a group of robots as a 1-dimensional cellular automaton, which is able to establish formations defined by a single mathematical function. We now extend the algorithm to establish grid formations.

AIMS To clarify the clinicopathological profile of osteosarcomas showing an intensely positive immunoreaction for cytokeratin. METHODS Clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features were analysed in 131 patients with non-metastatic, conventional osteosarcoma, treated in Akita University and National Cancer Centre in Tokyo between 1972 and 1999. RESULTS Six patients (4.5%; mean age, 32...
