In this study, we aimed to assess the prognostic value of metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) measured on <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT in pancreatic cancer patients who underwent resection with curative intent. <b>Methods:</b> Eighty-seven ductal adenocarcinoma subsequent surgical intent (30 patients) or without (57 neoadjuvant therapy were retrospectively enrolled. The maximum standardized uptake (SUVmax), MTV, TLG all patients. significances parameters factors for...
Although several prognostic factors are used to predict recurrence and select adequate candidates for liver transplantation hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), these have some clinical limitations. The purpose of this study was evaluate <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET as a factor optimize its ability tumor in HCC. <b>Methods:</b> included total 59 HCC patients (45 men 15 women; mean age ± SD, 56 8 y) who underwent subsequent orthotopic transplantation. All were followed up more than 1 y (mean, 29 17 mo),...
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) Co was developed using bis(-diisopropylacetamidinato)cobalt(II) as a precursor and reactant, producing pure thin films with excellent conformality nanoscale thickness controllability. In addition to , the were also deposited by gas reactant. Compared ALD showed higher film quality, lower resistivity, density. The thermal process applied area-selective an octadecyltrichlorosilane self-assembled monolayer blocking layer, which produced wide line patterns without...
Background: Classifying PD into tremor dominant (TD) and postural instability gait difficulty (PIGD) subtypes may have several limitations, such as its diagnostic inconsistency inability to reflect disease stage. In this study, we investigated the patterns of progression dopaminergic denervation, by prospective evaluation at regular time intervals. Methods: 325 dopamine replacement drug-naïve patients (age 61.2 ± 9.7, M:F = 215:110) were enrolled. Patients grouped TD, indeterminant, PIGD...
Background/Objectives: This study aimed to investigate whether post-operative changes in the computed tomography (CT)-attenuation of subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral (VAT) adipose tissues were significantly associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS), peritoneal RFS, overall (OS) patients stage II–III gastric cancer. Methods: retrospective analyzed 243 cancer who underwent curative surgery. CT-attenuation values SAT (SAT HU) VAT (VAT measured from non-contrast-enhanced abdominopelvic CT...
Patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) are treated <sup>131</sup>I therapy after total thyroidectomy or surgical resection of recurrent tumor. However, some DTC lesions not iodine-avid, which affects further treatment planning. The aim this study was to evaluate the clinical benefit <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT performed concurrently in patients intermediate high risk. <b>Methods:</b> We retrospectively enrolled 286 at 2 Korean medical centers who comprised different patient...
Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) consists of a heterogeneous group patients with wide range survival times, requiring further prognostic stratification to facilitate treatment allocation. We evaluated the value <sup>18</sup>F-FDG uptake on PET/CT at time presentation in BCLC HCC. <b>Methods:</b> A total 291 HCC who underwent between 2009 and 2010 for staging were retrospectively enrolled from 7 university hospitals. The divided into 2 groups...
To assess the outcomes and prognostic factors associated with palliative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), administered to patients advanced gastric cancer.Forty-two bleeding tumors that received EBRT for palliation were analyzed. The response was assessed by of tumor bleeding. Patients classified as either responders, or non-responders EBRT. utility clinical dosimetric variables examined in a multivariate logistic regression model. optimal dose cutoff classify two groups determined...
This study aimed to assess the prognostic value of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG uptake in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients who had transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) or concurrent intraarterial chemotherapy with external-beam radiotherapy (CCRT) and compare prognosis between treated TACE those CCRT according uptake. <b>Methods:</b> Two hundred fourteen intermediate–to–advanced-stage HCC without extrahepatic metastasis underwent staging PET/CT before (153 patients) (61 were recruited from 7...
Purpose Despite receiving much attention in recent job design literature, crafting research has neglected motivational and multilevel perspectives, limiting the understanding of how to foster employee crafting. Drawing on self-determination theory, purpose this paper is explore individual- team-level predictors mechanisms involved employees’ change behaviors. The authors propose that intrinsic motivation two properties – team knowledge sharing trust have important roles play....
Visceral adiposity is known to be related poor prognosis in patients with cholangiocarcinoma; however, the prognostic significance of qualitative features adipose tissue cholangiocarcinoma has yet well defined. This study investigated impact imaging parameters reflecting quantity and characteristics subcutaneous (SAT) visceral (VAT) on recurrence-free survival (RFS) overall (OS) 94 undergoing resection cholangiocarcinoma. The area, mean computed tomography (CT) attenuation,...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect blood glucose level correction on pancreatic cancer prognosis predictions after curative resection using F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET).We enrolled 43 patients with who underwent preoperative FDG PET. Patient outcomes were categorized according recurrence in clinical period. Maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax) tumors measured PET, and glucose-corrected SUV (SUVgluc) calculated as SUVmax ×...
