To perform a double-blind, randomized study comparing efficacy and safety of daily weekend prednisone in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).A total 64 DMD who were between 4 10 years age at 1 12 centers the Cooperative International Neuromuscular Research Group. Efficacy 2 schedules (daily 0.75 mg/kg/day mg/kg/wk) evaluated over months.Equivalence was met for dosing primary outcomes quantitative muscle testing (QMT) arm score QMT leg score. Secondary strength scores elbow flexors...
To determine whether pentoxifylline (PTX) slows the decline of muscle strength and function in ambulatory boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial comparing 12 months daily treatment PTX or placebo corticosteroid-treated DMD using slow-release formulation (~20 mg/kg/day). The primary outcome change mean total quantitative testing (QMT) score. Secondary outcomes included changes QMT subscales, manual strength, pulmonary...
A light source project named very compact inverse Compton scattering gamma-ray (VIGAS) is under development at Tsinghua University. VIGAS aims to generate monochromatic high-energy gamma rays by colliding 350-MeV electron beams with 400-nm laser photons within a 12-m beamline. To produce beam in such space, the system consists of an S-band high-brightness injector and six X-band high-gradient accelerating structures. The goal structure operate high gradient <a:math...
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of bronchial thermoplasty (BT) in severe asthma patients with first second forced expiratory volume (FEV(1)) as a percentage predicted value (FEV(1)%pred) <60%. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 75 who were treated BT at Shenzhen University Hospital Chinese Academy Sciences from January 2016 to 2018. The divided into two groups based FEV(1)%pred before treatment: <60% group (39 cases) ≥60% (36 cases). Comparative...
This paper proposed an X-band phase shifter for the very compact inverse Compton scattering gamma-ray source program at Tsinghua University and conducted its structure design, numerical simulation, fabrication, cold test, high-power testing. is composed of a polarizer, circular waveguide, piston with choke structure. The simulation results show that reflection coefficient under −40 dB insertion exceeds −0.06 operating frequency 11.424 GHz. variation 20°/mm, linear change from 0° to 360° can...
