BACKGROUND: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is defined as that negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2. TNBC represents 15% of all invasive cancers, but some studies have suggested its prevalence differs between races. To the authors' knowledge, no previous determined risk factors among Hispanic women. METHODS: The authors identified 2074 women with who attended National Cancer Institute in Mexico City from 1998 to 2008. All...
The unusual mix of morphological traits displayed by extinct South American native ungulates (SANUs) confounded both Charles Darwin, who first discovered them, and Richard Owen, tried to resolve their relationships. Here we report an almost complete mitochondrial genome for the litoptern Macrauchenia. Our dated phylogenetic tree places Macrauchenia as sister Perissodactyla, but close radiation major lineages within Laurasiatheria. This position is consistent with a divergence estimate ∼66 Ma...
Resumen Antecedentes. La sintomatología ansiosa y depresiva es parte de los principales problemas salud mental en pacientes oncológicos, lo cual afecta la calidad vida adhesión al tratamiento, además que se asocia con mayor número síntomas estancia hospitalaria. Mediante instrumentos tamizaje válidos confiables, como Escala hospitalaria ansiedad depresión (HADS), ha sido posible detectar posibles casos hospitalarios. Sin embargo, hasta ahora no habían caracterizado las propiedades...
Germ cell testicular tumors have survival rate that diminishes with high tumor marker levels, such as human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). hCG may regulate vascular neoformation through endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Our purpose was to determine the relationship between serum angiogenesis, and VEGF expression in germ tumors. We conducted a retrospective study of 101 patients. Serum levels hCG, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), lactate dehydrogenase were measured prior surgery. Vascular density (VD)...
Osteoarthritis of the knee is a major cause disability among adults. Electro-acupuncture considered potentially useful treatment for osteoarthritis. The purpose this study to assess efficacy electro-acupuncture on pain control, perception, plasma cortisol and beta-endorphin levels, patient-perceived quality life, medication use in patients with chronic pain. This placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, parallel design trial. One hundred sixty out-patients who are more than 50 years old...
Introduction The goals for the management of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) knee are to control pain and minimise disability. Because number will increase as population ages, alternative approaches alleviate their joint other than conventional treatments necessary. purpose this article is present a refined protocol determine if there long-term improvement in function after ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency treatment genicular nerves (GNs) chronic painful OA. Methods analysis This...
Cetuximab, in combination with platinum chemotherapy plus 5-fluoruracil (5-FU), is approved for the first-line treatment of recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma head and neck (SCCHN). Cetuximab manufactured by ImClone (US commercial cetuximab) potentially results higher systemic exposures than cetuximab Boehringer Ingelheim (BI-manufactured cetuximab). This prospective, randomized, double-blind study compared safety profiles two formulations. Patients previously untreated...
Routine microscopical examination of stool specimens for diagnosis strongyloidiasis is insensitive and serological methods using Strongyloides stercoralis antigen are at present not available field studies. We evaluated 2 techniques, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) gelatin particle indirect agglutination (GPIA), an obtained from the rodent parasite, S. venezuelensis. Fifty-four Peruvian patients with different clinical forms were studied: 12 asymptomatic, 31 symptomatic, 11...
Although mortality rates related with chikungunya (CHIK) outbreaks in Latin America's (LA's) dengue-endemic rural and new urban regions are low, dealing symptoms sequelae can both produce a significant burden of disease diminish quality life-from many months to years-after the acute phase infection, impact on public individual health.The aim this work was establish Pan-American League Associations for Rheumatology-Central American, Caribbean Andean Rheumatology Association (ACCAR)...
Subarachnoid injection of local anesthetics has been related to the appearance transient neurological symptoms (called neurologic syndrome), as reflected by a number clinical reports showing their incidence in practice. However, etiology this syndrome is virtually unknown, factors implicated its development. This review will attempt clarify entity and relationship with spinal anesthesia.Intrathecal administration known increase glutamate concentration cerebrospinal fluid histopathologic...
In patients with aggressive tumors resistant to conventional pain treatment, regional anaesthesia frequently becomes an alternative therapy. Cervical paravertebral nerve block among several access options the brachial plexus is barely ever used. We present a case severe shoulder and upper extremity owing expanding Pancoast tumor exhibiting compression upon plexus. Continuous intrathecal morphine infusion adjuvant treatment was not sufficient render patient pain-free. With addition of...
Existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses indicate that acupuncture has similar clinical effectiveness in the prevention of headache disorders (HDs) as drug therapy, but with fewer side effects. As such, examining acupuncture's use a pragmatic, real-world setting would be valuable. The purpose this study was to compare effects prophylactic treatment (PDT) on frequency patients HDs, under conditions.Retrospective cohort HDs referred pain clinic, using electronic health record data....
