Protein therapy has been considered the most direct and safe approach to treat cancer. Targeting delivery of extracellularly active protein without internalization barriers, such as membrane permeation endosome escape, is efficient holds vast promise for anticancer treatment. Herein, we describe a "transformable" core-shell based nanocarrier (designated CS-NG), which can enzymatically assemble into microsized extracellular depots at tumor site with assistance hyaluronidase (HAase), an...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) arises in the context of cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections, diagnosis is often made at advanced stages. Because early-stage improves survival, guidelines recommend screening patients risk for HCC, such as with cirrhosis. However, adherence to programs suboptimal. In this review, we discuss value HCC provide practical guidance on patient selection methods. International concordantly cirrhosis, including HBV C infections or without...
Symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common condition in the aging population that results bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms and decreased quality of life. Patients often are treated with medication offered surgery for persistent symptoms. Transurethral resection prostate considered traditional standard care, but several minimally invasive surgical treatments also offered. Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) emerging as an effective treatment option few reported adverse...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the technical feasibility performing prostatic artery embolization (PAE) with a transradial approach (TRA). Nineteen consecutive PAEs performed using TRA were reviewed determine success procedure, which defined as bilateral embolization. Procedural details, complications, and limitations recorded.Technical achieved in all 19 procedures. associated complications minor included two small (< 5 cm) hematomas one potential case delayed radial arteritis....
Background Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is a safe, minimally invasive angiographic procedure that effectively treats benign prostatic hyperplasia; however, PAE-related patient radiation exposure and associated risks are not completely understood. Purpose To quantify dose assess radiation-related adverse events in patients who underwent PAE at multiple centers. Materials Methods This retrospective study included undergoing for any indication performed by experienced operators 10...
Abstract Purpose Genicular artery embolization (GAE) has been proposed as a novel technique to treat painful synovitis related osteoarthritis. An in-depth understanding of the genicular arterial anatomy is crucial achieve technical success and avoid nontarget-related complications. Given lack previous angiographic description, present study analyzes proposes an classification system. Materials Methods Angiographic findings from 41 GAEs performed during two US clinical trials January 2017...
In order to facilitate metabolic studies in man with certain radioactive isotopes, a special scintiscanner has been designed, constructed, and placed operation. This particularly designed be used isotopes high-energy gamma rays, such as calcium 47, zinc 65, etc., permit scanning of any portion the body conveniently. Some features are reported here. The region scanned is 6 × 2.5 feet horizontal plane. A more limited vertical plane can also accommodated. Two heads were designed: one move above...
