Stage at diagnosis and survival from cancer vary according to where people live, suggesting some may have delays in diagnosis. The aim of this study was determine if time presentation treatment longer for colorectal breast patients living further centres, identify other important factors delay. Data were collected on 1097 with 1223 north northeast Scotland. Women who lived centres treated more quickly than those closer (P=0.011). Multilevel modelling found that largely due them receiving...
Introduction Overuse of CT Pulmonary Angiograms (CTPA) for diagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE), particularly in Emergency Departments (ED), is considered problematic. Marked variations positive CTPA rates are reported, with American 4–10% yields driving most concerns. Higher resolution may increase sub-segmental PE (SSPE) diagnoses, which be up to 40% false positive. Excessive use and positives could harm vs. benefit. These issues have not been systematically examined outside America. Aims To...

Method A literature review was undertaken using Medline (National Library Medicine, Washington DC, USA) searches headings gastrointestinal neoplasms H. for years 1993–1997; further...

Barrett’s oesophagus is a pre-malignant condition of the lower oesophagus. In this study, rates protein synthesis, measured by incorportation amino acids labelled with deuterated phenylalanine, have been used as measure both metabolic and proliferative activity mucosa. Rates mucosal synthesis were determined in antrum, fundus, squamous lined (SLO) columnar (CLO) 6 patients greater than 5 cm CLO. The fractional rate each tissues was follows: Antrum 43.9%/day (SD 14.1), Fundus 47.0%/day 14.3),...
