AbstractInterrogatives from the base *’ayy- are common throughout Semitic. Two of the reflexes of this base in Biblical Hebrew, ’ē ‘where?’ and ’ayyē ‘where?’, exhibit atypical...
BACKGROUND: SPRED1 and 2 are key negative regulators of MAPK signalling in mammalian cells. Here, we investigate the expression and functional role of SPREDs in prostate cancer. METHODS: A transcriptome bank of microdissected...
Introduction The aim of this study was to explore the impact of increasing proportions of high risk referrals on surgical margin outcomes of a surgeon's learning curve in robotic prostatectomy. Methods All patients in this study...
BACKGROUND: Identification of men harbouring insignificant prostate cancer (PC) is important in selecting patients for active surveillance. Tools have been developed in PSA-screened populations to identify such men based on...
For hydrogen to play a meaningful role in a sustainable energy system, all elements of the value chain must scale coherently. Advocates support electrolytic (green) hydrogen or (blue) hydrogen that relies on methane reformation...
INTRODUCTION: A massive increase of soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) due to variants in the thrombomodulin gene (THBD) has recently been identified as a novel bleeding disorder. AIM: To investigate sTM levels and underlying genetic...
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) continues to pose a significant clinical challenge with new generation second-line hormonal therapies affording limited improvement in disease outcome. As the androgen receptor (AR)...
AIM: To evaluate the effect of pre-biopsy magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on cancer diagnostic times, and to report MRI-directed pathology outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In total, 1483 patients were referred with prostate...
AIMS: Moderately hypofractionated breast irradiation has been evaluated in several prospective studies, resulting in wide acceptance of shorter treatment protocols for postoperative breast irradiation. Reimbursement for...
Classic lesion experiments from the 1940s have established the hypothalamus as playing an essential role in controlling energy homeostasis. Gold-thioglucose (GTG) induces lesions in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus...
AbstractAs a frequent and energetic particle accelerator, our Sun provides us with an excellent astrophysical laboratory for understanding the fundamental process of particle acceleration. The...
