Bilateral hypothalamotomy plus dominant amygdalotomy with Gamma Knife radiosurgery. A non-invasive alternative when everything has failed in the management of aggressive behavior disorder.

Background: Impulsive aggression is the core symptom of intermittent explosive disorder, which can be a feature of several psychiatric disorders. There is a subset of individuals who do not respond adequately to medical treatment; they are treatment refractory. The objective of this report is to describe a case of a patient with a background of schizophrenia and concomitant refractory aggressiveness disorder, treated with two-stage bilateral hypothalamotomy and unilateral amygdalotomy with Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKR).

DSTYK Inhibition Sensitizes NSCLC to Taxane-Based Chemotherapy.

Introduction: Chemotherapy continues to be the standard treatment for patients noneligible for targeted or immune-based therapies; nevertheless, treatment resistance remains a major clinical challenge. We previously found that expression levels of DSTYK, a poorly explored dual serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase frequently amplified in cancer, identified patients with lung cancer exhibiting poor response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, and found that its inhibition sensitizes to immunotherapy. Seeking to explore the potential of DSTYK targeting in additional indications, we investigated the functional relevance and actionability of DSTYK in lung cancer chemoresistance.

Hydrogen storage with gravel and pipes in lakes and reservoirs.

Climate change is projected to have substantial economic, social, and environmental impacts worldwide. Currently, the leading solutions for hydrogen storage are in salt caverns, and depleted natural gas reservoirs. However, the required geological formations are limited to certain regions.

Significance of Pathologic Response in Patients With Early and Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Treated With Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in a Middle-Income Country. A Real-World Historical Cohort.

Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent neoplasm in women in Colombia and is associated with a higher mortality rate than in other countries and regions. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has become a standard treatment in locally advanced BC and provides an opportunity to improve clinical outcomes in BC. This study aims to describe characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes after NACT in a cohort of Colombian patients with BC.
