Modified radical mastectomy was performed in 142 female patients with operable carcinoma of the breast. One of the two prospectively randomised groups received postoperative radiotherapy with 6000 rad. Survival rates were equal for both groups. Follow-up radiotherapy had a beneficial influence on survival rate and rate of distant metastases in median tumour sites. In lateral tumour localization the course of disease was less favourable with radiotherapy than without. Local relapse rates were slightly, however not significantly, lower after irradiation. The decisive prognostic criterium is T- and N-stage at the time of diagnosis.

As the rubber industry seeks sustainable alternatives to mitigate its environmental impact, this study introduces a biobased approach using polyfarnesene rubber reinforced with plasma-modified cellulose nanocrystals (MCNC) and nanofibers (MCNF). The nanocellulose was modified by plasma-induced polymerization using trans-β-farnesene and was characterized by FTIR, XPS, XRD, TGA, and SEM to confirm the grafting of farnesene-derived polymer chains onto the cellulose surface, demonstrating the successful modification and integration of the nanoparticles. Polyfarnesene bio-based rubbers were synthesized through two different polymerization techniques: solution-based coordination polymerization (PFA1) and emulsion-based free radical polymerization (PFA2).

Although two examples of σ-bonded -bent [RSbSbR] (R = bulky organo- or Ga-groups) that formally contain the Sb radical trianion moiety are known in p-block chemistry, d- or f-element Sb radical trianion complexes, with or without R-substituents, have remained elusive. Here, we report that reduction of a 77:23 mix of [{Th(Tren)}(μ-η:η-Sb)] (, Tren = {N(CHCHNSiPr)}):[{Th(Tren)}(μ-SbH)] () with 1.5 equiv of KC in the presence of 1.

The performance of energetic coordination compounds (ECCs) is influenced by their components and structure. Modifying the chemical structure of the ligands can balance the detonation performance and sensitivity. This study introduced Cu(3-PZCA)(ClO) () and Cu(2-IZCA)(ClO) (), using 3-PZCA and 2-IZCA as ligands.

Background/objectives: Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is an innovative approach for the targeted therapy of cancer. In PIT, photosensitizer dyes are conjugated to tumor-specific antibodies for targeted delivery into cancer cells. Upon irradiation with visible light, the photosensitizer dye is activated and induces cancer-specific cell death.
