Abstract Crizotinib (PF02341066) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of anaplastic lymphoma (ALK) that has been shown to selectively inhibit growth cancer cells harbor the EML4-ALK fusion found in subset patients with non–small cell lung (NSCLC). While clinical trials, PF02341066 significant therapeutic benefit as single agent; effectiveness combining it other modalities including ionizing radiation remains unknown. To further elucidate role tumor inhibition, we examined its effects alone and...

Normal aging triggers deterioration in cognitive functions. Evidence has shown that these age-related changes concern also executive functions (EF) as well temporal information processing (TIP) a millisecond range. A considerable amount of literature data indicated each two sets frame for our mental activity and may be considered terms embodied cognition due to advanced age. The present study addresses the question whether elderly subjects efficiency TIP is related individual differences EF....

The present study investigates age-related changes in duration discrimination millisecond time domain. We tested young (N = 20, mean age 24.5, SD 2.97) and elderly 65.2, 2.94) subjects using the Mismatch Negativity (MMN) paradigm. White-noise bursts of two different durations (50 ms 10 ms) were presented 2 oddball blocks. In one block (Increment Condition), repetitive sequence standards was interspersed by occasional 50 deviants. Decrement Condition, roles stimuli reversed. analyzed P1-N1...

Introduction. Working shifts has a negative impact on employee health and cognitive efficiency. The purpose of this study was to investigate the shift work functions – attention working memory using both behavioural electrophysiological measures. Methods. carried out group 34 employees (18 paramedics, 16 firefighters) 17 day workers. Participants performed network test N-back task with two conditions (1-back, 2-back) while electroencephalography signal recorded. Results. Observations...

Shift work can be associated with health and sleep problems, which may lead to cognitive impairment. This study investigated the effects of shift on sleep, behaviours functions Polish rescue service workers. We tested 18 paramedics working 12-h shifts, 15 firefighters 24-h shifts 17 daytime measured general sleepiness, workload during occurrence behaviours. Additionally, we attention, executive function subjective alertness. Paramedics showed lower average duration quality, fewer than...

Speech comprehension deficits constitute a major issue for an increasingly aged population, as they may lead older individuals to social isolation. Since conversation requires constant monitoring, updating and selecting information, auditory working memory decline, rather than impoverished hearing acuity, has been suggested core factor. However, in stark contrast the visual domain, neurophysiological mechanisms underlying healthy aging remain poorly understood, especially those related...

The brain's ability to recognize acoustic changes occurring in rapid temporal succession is important for speech and successful language development. Children with specific impairment (SLI) are characterized by deficient dynamics of information processing (TIP) the millisecond time range accompanied disordered Furthermore, previous studies have found that intervention based on amelioration TIP resulted improvement both other cognitive functions.

Background The COVID-19 pandemic challenges our ability to safely treat breast cancer patients and requires revisiting current techniques evaluate optimal strategies. Potential long-term sequelae of radiation have been addressed by deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH), prone positioning, four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) average intensity projection (AveIP)-based planning techniques. Dosimetric comparisons determine the technique minimize normal tissue dose for left-sided cancers...
