While implanted port catheters ("PORTs") have historically been the standard device for intravenous systemic anticancer therapy, the use of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) has increased continuously and reliable catheter selection guidelines are lacking. We compare complication rates of PORTs and PICCs in cancer treatment in a retrospective study of 3365 patients with both solid organ (n = 2612) and hematologic (n = 753) malignancies, between 2001 and 2021. 26.

- The Edmonston-Zagreb measles vaccine is produced on chick-embryo fibroblasts or human diploid cells and has been safely administered to over 20 million people since its licensure in 1967.
- Studies show the vaccine maintains strong immunogenicity, with over 95% seroconversion in children aged 13-17 months and 100% response in infants aged 6-12 months after vaccination.
- The human diploid cell vaccine yields a significantly higher antibody response compared to chick-embryo fibroblast vaccine, regardless of age or administration route.
