Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors With and Without Up-Front Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases From and Oncogene-Driven Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (TURBO-NSCLC).

Purpose: Newer-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor () mutations and anaplastic lymphoma kinase () rearrangements have demonstrated high CNS activity. The optimal use of up-front stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain metastases (BM) in patients eligible for CNS-penetrant TKIs is controversial, and data to guide patient management are limited.

Materials And Methods: Data on TKI-naïve patients with EGFR- and ALK-driven NSCLC with BM treated with CNS-penetrant TKIs with and without up-front SRS were retrospectively collected from seven academic centers in the United States.

Making Landscapes Negotiable: Q-methodology as a Boundary-Spanning and Empowering Diagnostic.

Landscapes are conceptually fuzzy and rich, and subject to plural framings. They are places of inquiry and intervention for scientists and practitioners, but also concepts bound to peoples' dynamic identities, knowledge systems, inspiration, and well-being. These varying interpretations change the way landscapes function and evolve.

Learning and memory function preserved by delayed A adenosine receptor agonist treatment following soman intoxication in rats and a humanized esterase mouse model.

Exposure to organophosphorus compounds, such as soman (GD), cause widespread toxic effects, sustained status epilepticus, neuropathology, and death. The A adenosine receptor agonist N-bicyclo-(2.2.
