Background: The role of endothelin receptor type B (EDNRB) isoform 3 involved in Temozolomide (TMZ)-induced melanoma cell death has not yet been elucidated.
Methods: The subcellular localization of EDNRB isoform 3 was determined by confocal and immunoblotting assays. Silencing EDNRB isoform 3 was performed by CRISPR/Cas9.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) affects coagulation function and blood flow in patients after rectal cancer surgery.
- A total of 120 patients were split into two groups: one receiving standard treatment and the other receiving IPC in addition to standard care, with DVT incidence significantly lower in the IPC group.
- Results showed that while some coagulation parameters changed, IPC improved blood flow and significantly reduced the likelihood of deep venous thrombosis post-surgery, confirming its effectiveness as a safe and convenient therapy.
Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of liver transplantation for patients with cholangiocarcinoma.
Methods: According to the requirements of Cochrane systematic review, a thorough literature search was performed in Pubmed/Medline, Embase and Cochrane Central Register electronic databases ranged between 1995 and 2009 in terms of the key words "liver transplantation", and "cholangiocarcinoma" or "cholangiocellular carcinoma" or "bile duct cancer". And restricted the articles published in the English language.
Effect of preoperative biliary drainage on malignant obstructive jaundice: a meta-analysis.
World J Gastroenterol
January 2011
Aim: To evaluate the effect of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) on obstructive jaundice resulting from malignant tumors.
Methods: According to the requirements of Cochrane systematic review, studies in the English language were retrieved from MEDLINE and Embase databases from 1995 to 2009 with the key word "preoperative biliary drainage". Two reviewers independently screened the eligible studies, evaluated their academic level and extracted the data from the eligible studies confirmed by cross-checking.
