Based on positive results from the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 85-01 trial, the conventional nonsurgical treatment of esophageal carcinoma is combined-modality therapy. Dose intensification of the RTOG 85-01 regimen, examined in the Intergroup (INT)-0123/RTOG 94-05 trial, did not improve local control or survival. Areas of clinical investigation include the development of combined-m...

‘‘In situ’’ conductivity measurements on Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystals have been combined with synchrotron x-ray-diffraction experiments for studying its behavior during phase transformations. In order to confidently reduce the possible contribution to the conductivity of defects and grain boundaries, single-crystal samples have been annealed in situ under UHV conditions. This combined experiment allo...

Abstract:A combination of mechanical activation and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) together with X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and various microstractural characterization techniques were used to evaluate the starting reaction in the combustion synthesis of TiC-Al2O3 composite in TiO2-Al-C system. The mechanical activation was performed on the mixtures of two components of TiO2/Al, Al/C and ...

Either calorie restriction [CR; consuming 60-65% of ad libitum (AL) intake] or acute exercise can independently improve insulin sensitivity in old age, but their combined effects on muscle insulin signaling and glucose uptake have previously been unknown. Accordingly, we assessed the independent and combined effects of CR (beginning at 14 wk old) and acute exercise (3-4 h postexercise) on insul...

one of the important subjects of comparative literature_ in french school_ is studying common contents between literature of different languages and separating literati’s initiatives and borrowing from other authors in the same or another language by them. with this aspect. using analytic – comparative metod, this study compares poems of abu tayyib al-muttanabbi_ as one of the most impressive a...

OBJECTIVE To study the pattern and incidence of cancer in the Al-Jouf region of Saudi Arabia. METHODS The record of all confirmed cancer cases were retrieved and studied from the files of the Histopathology and Cytology Department, Prince Abdulrahman Al-Sudairy Central Hospital, Al-Jouf, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) during the period 1994 to 2001. The major types of cancer were ranked in ord...
