Introduction: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been found to be an effective and safe modality with excellent oncological outcome in medically inoperable primary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and oligometastases. There is scarcity of data on the synchronous delivery of SBRT to primary and oligometastatic RCC in patients unfit for nephrectomy. Here, we report the findings of a retrospective study of prospectively collected data on "total ablative SBRT.

This calls for supplementary techniques to effectively anesthetize such patients. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the published literature for determining the success rate of anesthesia induction using post-IANB intraligamentary (IL) injection in the mandibular teeth of patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

The topical covalent BTK inhibitor PRN473 has shown durable, reversible BTK occupancy with rapid on-rate and slow off-rate binding kinetics and long residence time, resulting in prolonged, localized efficacy with low systemic exposure in vivo. Mechanisms of PRN473 include inhibition of IgE (FcεR)-mediated activation of mast cells and basophils, IgG (FcγR)-mediated activation of monocytes, and neutrophil migration.
