Objective: To evaluate the long-term oncological, functional and toxicity outcomes of low-dose-rate brachytherapy (LDR-BT) in relation to risk factors and radiation dose in a prospective multicentre cohort.
Patients And Methods: Data of patients from 12 Swiss centres undergoing LDR-BT from September 2004 to March 2018 were prospectively collected. Patients with a follow-up of ≥3 months were analysed.

This article explores the enormous challenges to reproductive decision making that could result from two emerging technologies: the potential capacity to create vast numbers of embryos for preimplantation genetic diagnosis and the ability to obtain ever more predictive information about the embryo. Together these technologies could change our reproductive experience, exacerbate existing inequities, and profoundly affect reproductive decision making. Simply comprehending the dizzying amounts of predictive information about the health and traits of future children will overwhelm future parents.

Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) is an important component of the human innate immune system that recognizes single stranded RNA (ssRNA). Recent X-ray crystal structures of TLR8 bound to ssRNA revealed a previously unrecognized binding site for a 5'-UpG-3' dinucleotide. Here we use an atomic mutagenesis strategy coupled with a cellular TLR8 activation assay to probe the importance of specific functional groups present on the guanine base in RNA-mediated receptor agonism and antagonism.

Background: The Neuromuscular Recovery Scale (NRS) was developed by researchers and clinicians to functionally classify people with spinal cord injury (SCI) by measuring functionally relevant motor tasks without compensation. Previous studies established strong interrater and test-retest reliability and validity of the scale.
Objective: To determine responsiveness of the NRS, a version including newly added upper-extremity items, in an outpatient rehabilitation setting.
