Correlation of p53 expression with Clinical Presentation and Prognosis of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients: A Pilot Study: AbstractMutations of p53 gene is one of the most common events in human cancers including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, its role in carcinogenesis and association with regard to prognosis is still under investigation and unclear. The aim was to study the expression of p53 in patients of OSCC and correlation with clinical presentation and prognosis. In this...

Palatopharyngoplasty and Palatal Anatomy and Phenotypes for Treatment of Sleep Apnea in the Twenty-first Century: Successful palatopharyngoplasty is critical for successful sleep apnea surgery. Traditional uvulopalatopharyngoplasty was primarily excisional, whereas newer techniques, such as expansion sphincterpharyngoplasty, are more reconstructive. Studies of flow dynamics even demonstrate that the effectiveness of maxillofacial surgery is significantly mediated through stiffening and enlargement...

Implantable Neurostimulation for Treatment of Sleep Apnea: Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) therapy represents a novel approach and a paradigm shift in the evolution of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment as a hybrid surgically implanted, medically titratable device. Unlike traditional sleep apnea surgical procedures, HNS augments the neuromuscular activity of the pharynx, preserves upper airway structure and function, and has the potential to provide multilevel upper airway improvement with...

Sonographic exploration for fascial exploration (SEFE) in necrotizing fasciitis: a case report: AbstractBackgroundNecrotizing skin and soft tissue infections are life-threatening conditions. Reliance on gas in tissue planes leads to worsened outcomes in patients with non-gas forming types of necrotizing fasciitis (NF).Case presentationWe present a case of Group A Strep (GAS) necrotizing fasciitis, which was identified at bedside with point-of-care ultrasound (US) including an area of subfascial fluid....

edoc: No conditions. Results ordered -Date Deposited.Connecting single conductive polymers to a single functional moleculeWe have developed a method using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) probe tip to control the chain polymerization of diacetylene compounds in a self-ordered layer, thereby creating conjugated polydiacetylene nanowires. When a small amount of phthalocyanine was deposited on a molecular layer of diacetylene compound, we found adsorbed and stabilized phthalocyanine single molecules....

The Postoperative Lymphocyte to Monocyte Ratio Change Predicts Poor Clinical Outcome in Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Undergoing Curative Resection: Background. Postoperative lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (post-LMR) change (LMRc) reflects the dynamic change of balance between inflammatory reaction and immune reaction after curative operation. An elevated preoperative LMR (pre-LMR) has been shown to be a prognostic factor in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC),...

Giant Thrombosis at Left Anterior Descending Artery Aneurysm in a 10-Year Old Boy with Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), necrotizing vasculitis of small and medium-sized vessels, is traditionally believed to mainly affect respiratory tract with additional focal kidney involvements as its primary manifestations with a relatively rare annual incidence rate of 20-50 cases per million. Six percent of the affected cases have cardiac involvements; among which, aneurysms...
