Clinical and Biomarker Characteristic of Lymphoma Patients in Hasan Sadikin Lymphoma Registry.

Background: No specific data have been systematically collected regarding lymphoma patient characteristics, while non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is identified as the 7 most common cancer and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is the 28. Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of lymphoma. Malnutrition is an adverse prognostic factor in lymphoma.

Post-Orthodontic Relapse Prevention through Administration of a Novel Synthetic Carbonated Hydroxyapatite-Chitosan Hydrogel Derived from Blood Cockle Shell ( L.).

Relapse during passive orthodontic treatment is a major issue, with 70-90% frequency. This study examines whether blood cockle shells may be used to extract carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA)-chitosan (CS). This study also aims to analyze the effect of CHA-CS on orthodontic relapse in rats.

Efficacy of modified pressure cuff for thrombolytic treatment on lower extremity deep venous thrombosis.

To compare the effectiveness and patient comfort between two methods that block superficial venous blood flow during the thrombolytic treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) to provide evidence that informs clinical choice.One hundred twenty patients with lower extremity DVT were randomly divided into sphygmomanometer (group A, n = 40), tourniquet (group B, n = 40), and control group (no blocking, n = 40). All the patients were treated with a daily dosage of urokinase using a dial sphygmomanometer cuff and tourniquet to block lower extremity superficial vein blood flow.

Sequencing of the complex CTRB1-CTRB2 locus in chronic pancreatitis.

Background: /Objectives: A recent Genome-wide Association Study (GWAS) in alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (ACP) identified a novel association with the CTRB1-CTRB2 (chymotrypsinogen B1, B2) locus, linked to a 16.6 kb inversion that was confirmed in non-alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (NACP). Moreover, recent findings on the function of CTRB1 and CTRB2 suggest a protective role in pancreatitis development.

Manual aspiration thrombectomy for acute and subacute inferior vena cava thrombosis and lower extremity deep venous thrombosis.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which can lead to pulmonary embolism (PE), is a major contributor to the global disease burden and is the third most common cardiovascular pathology after coronary artery disease and stroke. Venous thromboembolic disease, which encompasses the disease entities of DVT and PE, affects up to 10 million cases every year and represents a serious and potentially life-threatening condition. Standard anticoagulation therapy alone is ineffective at promoting deep venous system thrombus removal.

Prostate Cancer Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging at 1.5 and 3.0 T: A Meta-Analysis.

Objective: We sought to assess the value of 1.5-T and 3-T magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging in the diagnosis of prostate cancer by meta-analysis.

Methods: Prospective studies were selected from MEDLINE, PubMed, Science Direct, OVID, and Springer between January 2004 and June 2014.

Lobular capillary hemangioma of the trachea.

As a polypoid form of capillary hemangioma, lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) most commonly occurs on the cutaneous and mucosal surfaces and is frequently benign in children. Tracheal LCH is a rare benign tumor in adults, with hemoptysis being one of the most serious forms of presentation. A definite diagnosis of LCH depends on its histopathology.

A study of baseline risk factors for coronary heart disease: results of population screening in a developing country.

To contribute information on coronary heart disease and its risk factors (information which is still scarce in developing countries), this report is presented on a population screening study done in urban Jakarta, using the MONICA Protocol. A randomly selected sample of 2073 people (25-64 years) from 3 districts (total population 523,000) of Jakarta were examined. The results were as follows: electrocardiogram (ECG) signs of old myocardial infarction were found in 2.
