Proactive Symptom Monitoring by Pharmacists Using a Cancer Patient Support App in Out-patient Oral Multi-kinase Inhibitor Therapy: Feasibility Study of a Small Patient Population.

Background/aim: Measures to control adverse events (AEs) in the use of oral multi-kinase inhibitors (OMI) are important for the continuation of treatment.

Patients And Methods: In this study, oncology pharmacists monitored symptoms of patients receiving outpatient therapy with OMIs in real-time using a smartphone Web app for the early detection/early treatment of AEs. This feasibility study evaluated the effects of using the app in 10 patients compared with data from 10 patients who did not use the app.

Initial Experience With Senhance-Assisted Laparoscopic Partial Cystectomy Using the Double Bipolar Method With 3 mm Bipolar Instruments.

The Senhance robotic system (Asensus Surgical, Durham, NC, USA) is an innovative platform for minimally invasive surgery. It enables surgeons to perform precise and cost-effective procedures using reusable instruments and has advanced features such as haptic feedback and eye-tracking camera control. Herein, we present the first application of the "double bipolar method" (DBM) in a Senhance-assisted laparoscopic partial cystectomy utilizing 3 mm Maryland bipolar instruments.

Effects of dietary Hericium erinaceus extract on growth, nutrient utilization, hematology, expression of genes related immunity response, and disease resistance of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).

In recent years, there has been a growing focus on using herbal extracts as immune enhancers for aquatic species, replacing antibiotics. In the present study, the effects of dietary supplementation of Hericium erinaceus extract (HE) on growth, feed utilization, hematology, expression of immunity-related genes, and immune responses in Nile tilapia infected by Streptococcus agalactiae were examined. A total of 240 Nile tilapia with an average body weight of 17.

Utility of a 3 mm Bipolar Instrument in Laparoscopic Renal Surgery Using the Senhance Robotic System.

We report our initial experience and the utility of 3 mm bipolar forceps in laparoscopic renal surgery using the Senhance robotic system. We performed laparoscopic nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma in two patients: an 80-year-old female with a left renal pelvic tumor and an 80-year-old male with a right ureteral tumor. Both surgeries were successfully completed without conversion to conventional laparoscopic surgery or laparotomy.

Histopathological Alterations in (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) after Exposure to .

The brown planthopper (BPH), (Stål, 1854) is a pest of rice plants worldwide. is a destructive entomopathogenic fungus known to attack leafhoppers or BPHs specifically. Live adult BPH samples were inoculated with isolated PSUC002, and their interaction was morpho-histologically examined from 0 to 120 h post-inoculation (pi).
