The constant increase in the level of traumatic brain injuries in recent years, the frequent cases of disability and mortality associated with them require in-depth comprehensive research to study the problem on the ground, its medical, social, and economic aspects, which is very important for improving organizational measures to reduce traumatization among all age groups of the population. Objectives - to determine the presence and nature of structural damage associated with traumatic brain injury. The presence and nature of structural damage associated with traumatic brain injury.

Article Synopsis
  • Development of nutrient-efficient cultivars relies on identifying and using genetic variation, as shown by characterizing 276 pre-breeding lines (PBLs) in response to different nitrogen applications.
  • Significant variation was observed in various traits like biological yield and harvest index, with changes ranging from 4-18% due to nitrogen levels.
  • A genome-wide association study (GWAS) found 182 marker-trait associations, with 40 related to nitrogen response, suggesting potential for selecting PBLs that can enhance plant nitrogen use efficiency.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of patient positioning based on either bone or soft-tissue matching for PT in oesophageal cancer and its impact on plan adaptation.

Materials And Methods: Two retrospective patient cohorts treated with radiotherapy were included in the study. Cohort A consisted of 26 consecutive patients with a planning 4DCT scan (CT1) and a surveillance 4DCT scan (CT2) at fraction ten.

Purpose: To compare dose distributions and robustness in treatment plans from eight European centres in preparation for the European randomized phase-III PROTECT-trial investigating the effect of proton therapy (PT) versus photon therapy (XT) for oesophageal cancer.

Materials And Methods: All centres optimized one PT and one XT nominal plan using delineated 4DCT scans for four patients receiving 50.4 Gy (RBE) in 28 fractions.
