Development of a superhydrophobic and superoleophilic halloysite nanotube/phenyltriethoxysilane-coated melamine sponge sorbent material with high performance in supercritical CO atmosphere for the selective and effective oil spill cleanup and oil-water separation.

In this study, activated halloysite nanotube (HNT) and phenyltriethoxysilane (PTES) were utilized for the first time to fabricate modified HNT materials and coat them onto melamine sponge (MS) substrate in the supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO) atmosphere. The successful coating of MS substrate was confirmed using SEM, EDS, XPS, and contact angle measurements. The drainage technique applied in the CO medium achieved the uniform coating of both the inner and outer surfaces of the MS.

Concomitant Use of Proton Pump Inhibitors and CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Metastatic Hormone-Positive Breast Cancer: A Real-World Cohort Study.

Introduction: Conflicting evidence exists regarding the concurrent use of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in the treatment of breast cancer. This study aimed to investigate whether PPI use interferes with the efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Methods: This retrospective, multicenter, real-world study included 205 patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.

Comparison of First-Line Chemotherapeutics and Validation of the EORTC Prognostic Index in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma: Retrospective Single-Centre Experience.

Objective: To evaluate the efficiency of pemetrexed cisplatin in comparison with gemcitabine cisplatin and to validate the EORTC (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) prognostic score in combination chemotherapy treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Study Design:  An observational study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Oncology, Dicle University Hospital, Diyarbakir, Turkiye, from October 2000 to November 2017.

The Comparison of FLOT and DCF Regimens as Perioperative Treatment for Gastric Cancer.

Introduction: Locoregional gastric cancer is a still serious problem and perioperative treatments may improve the success of management. Different regimens were examined. The present study purposed to compare the efficacy of fluorouracil-leucovorin-oxaliplatin-docetaxel (FLOT) and docetaxel-cisplatin-fluorouracil (DCF) regimens.

Results of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy With CyberKnife-M6 for Primary and Metastatic Lung Cancer.

Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using the CyberKnife-M6 (CK-M6) with lung optimized treatment (LOT) module in patients with primary lung cancer and lung metastases.

Methods: Forty-two lesions from 35 patients were treated between 2019 and 2022. Four-dimensional computed tomography images were obtained when the patients were in a free breathing modality.
