Abstract Purpose Anatomically, the femoral bone shows sagittal and coronal bowing. Pronounced bowing would affect femoral implant surgery accuracy, but factors associated with degrees of three-dimensional (3D) femoral bowing have not yet been identified. This study measured 3D femoral bowing and examined the correlation between 3D femoral bowing and risk factors. Methods ...

Abstract Purpose Patellar calcar corresponds to a greater trabecular bone density area in the patella lateral facet, whose morphometry is uncertain. This study aimed to describe patellar calcar morphometry by knee MRI and develop a 3D reconstruction software-assisted. Materials and methods Consecutive adult patients, submitted to knee MRI, between 2014 and...

Adult-onset periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and cervical adenitis (PFAPA) syndrome is a rare condition, having been reported in only three patients in Japan till date. While almost all pediatric PFAPA patients respond well to tonsillectomy, some European studies have reported that tonsillectomy may be ineffective for adult-onset PFAPA. All the Japanese patients with adult-onset PFAPA had been treated orally so far (cimetidine with or without prednisone), instead of tonsillectomy....

Sayed Ali Almahari, Zainab Harb, Safa AlshaikhCytoJournal 2019 16(1):18-18 Background: Thyroid gland nodules are common and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is the gold standard for screening those nodules. The Bethesda system for reporting thyroid cytolopathology standardized reporting thyroid nodules aspirations, but atypia of undetermined significance or follicular lesion of undetermined significance (Bethesda category III) was the most controversial category. The aim of our study is to review...

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a combination therapy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and airway stent placement using a transparent silicone stent (gold studded stent [GSS]). Laser irradiation (664 nm, continuous wave) was performed through the GSS using a straight and cylindrical fiber 1.0 cm away from a power meter. There are two types of GSS: the TD type for the trachea and the BD type for the bronchus. Laser outputs were set to 150 mW, 180 mW,...

Abstract Finding optimal parameters of endovenous laser coagulation using the radiation with a wavelength of 1910 nm. In vivo experiments have been carried out on the small saphenous veins of three sheep of Edilbay breed and the dependence of venous wall and surrounding tissue damage on the radiation power was analyzed on the basis of morphological study results, as well as ultrasound examination and clinical observation of animals in the postoperative period. As radiation source,...

Abstract Photobiomodulation via a combination of different radiations can produce different effects on biological tissues, such as cell proliferation and differentiation, when compared to those produced via a single radiation. The present study aims to conduct a review of the literature addressing the results and applications of photobiomodulation induced by a combination of two or more radiations as well as their possible effects. PubMed was used to search for studies with restrictions...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. Introduction:Additive manufacturing or 3-dimensional printing has become a widespread technology with many applications in medicine. We have conducted a systematic review of its application in radiation oncology with a particular emphasis on the creation of phantoms for image quality assessment and radiation dosimetry. Traditionally used phantoms for quality assurance in radiotherapy are often constraint by simplified...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. Background:Despite diverse functions in diseases, the prognostic potential of the family of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase genes in acute myeloid leukemia remains unknown.Methods:The messenger RNA expression of the MAP4K family members in 151 patients with acute myeloid leukemia was extracted from the OncoLnc database. Data for gender, age, cytogenetic, leukocyte count, CD34, FAB classification,...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. Variant rs7034162 in NFIB was reported to be associated with metastasis of osteosarcoma in European cases with genome-wide significance. Our purpose was to replicate the association of rs7034162 with the metastasis of osteosarcoma in the Chinese population and to further characterize the expression level of NFIB in osteosarcoma tissues. A total of 321 patients were included in this study. Variant rs7034162 was genotyped...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. Due to the critical role of inflammation in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, we aim to investigate the correlation between nasopharyngeal carcinoma prognosis and the levels of tumor necrosis factor α and macrophages for the development of new prognostic models. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and CD68-positive macrophages were measured in 111 primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma specimens by immunohistochemistry. Kaplan-Meier...

Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. MicroRNA-376c-3p was previous reported to have a crucial role in the progression of human cancer. This study was aimed to investigate the influence of microRNA-376c-3p on the proliferation and migration of human gastric cancer cells and the associated mechanism. We explored the expression of microRNA-376c-3p in gastric cancer cells using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Also, we analyzed the...

miR-744-5p Inhibits Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Proliferation and Invasion by Directly Targeting PAX2
Technology in Cancer Research &Treatment, Volume 18, Issue , January 2019. Non-small cell lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. MicroRNAs have been characterized as critical regulators for cancer progression including non-small cell lung cancer. This work explored microRNA-744-5p expression in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines and normal cell line using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Connection of microRNA-744-5p and paired box 2 was...

Abstract Background Exercise is widely recognised for its health enhancing benefits. Despite this, an overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), outstripping antioxidant defence mechanisms, can lead to a state of (chronic) oxidative stress. DNA is a vulnerable target of RONS attack and, if left unrepaired, DNA damage may cause genetic instability. Objective...

Abstract Background Besides physical activity as a target for dementia prevention, sedentary behaviour is hypothesized to be a potential target in its own right. The rising number of persons with dementia and lack of any effective treatment highlight the urgency to better understand these modifiable risk factors. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether higher levels of sedentary behaviour are associated with reduced global cognitive...
