Abstract:

Whether age is an independent prognostic factor in breast cancer is a matter of debate. This is a retrospective cohort study of 767 breast cancer patients, stages I-III, treated at the Hospital das Clínicas, Minas Gerais Federal University, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, from 2001 to 2008, aiming to study the relationship between age and survival. We included variables related to patients, tumors, and types of treatment. Different sets of Cox models were used for survival analysis. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95%CI were calculated.

Individuals with unilateral trans-femoral amputations due to non-vascular causes were studied in a mailed survey designed to investigate health-related quality of life (HRQL), prosthetic use and problems.

The series consisted of 97 subjects (60 men, 37 women), aged 20 to 69 years with a mean of 22 years since the amputation. Trauma was the cause of amputation in 55%, tumour in 35% and other causes in 10%. Ninety-two (92) subjects (95%) had a prosthesis and 80 (82%) used it daily. Gener

Mouse adoptive transfer experiments show that up-front lymphodepletion improves in vivo lymphocyte expansion by providing lymphoid space, eliminating host anti-donor immune reactivity and by decreasing competition for growth factors that promote lymphocyte expansion. In this clinical trial, lymphodepletion was achieved with IV cyclophos

Abstract Background: Telomeres are conserved tandem repeats at chromosome ends that are vital to maintaining chromosomal stability and preventing degradation. Shorter telomere lengths (TL) are typically associated with older biological age or poor health status and can activate programmed cell death, whereas longer telomere lengths can be indicative of younger age or abnormal replication processes with oncogenic mutations. Previous research has identified a link between telomere length and carcinogenesis, but relatively few studies have investigated TL and primary liver cancer (PLC) risk despi

Background: Depending on the level of care and the availability of pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) facilities, the mortality rate of acutely ill children varies in PICUs. Referral of patients from other medical centers, admission during working or off-work hours, and nosocomial infections are the most important risk factors for the high mortality rates in PICUs. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the characteristics and factors related to the risk of mortality in pediatric patients admitted to the PICU of a pediatric hospital in Qazvin, Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional

Abstract:

This article is concerned with dance as an embodied form of collective remembering in the Andean department of Ayacucho in Peru. Andean dance and fiesta are inextricably linked with notions of identity, cultural heritage and history. Rather than being simply aesthetic —steps to music or a series of movements — dance is readable as being a deeper embodiment of the broader struggles and concerns of a people. As anthropologist Zoila Mendoza writes, in post-colonial countries such as those in Africa and Latin America, dance is and was a means “through which people contested, domesticated and rewor

Abstract Background Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has improved life expectancy in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Between 2.4% and 50% of PLWHA who initiate ART require a regimen switch within the first year. This variable range depends on local treatment guidelines, available ART, and the prevalence of resistance. We aimed to analyze the causes of ART Switch, time to ART switch and its associated factors in a Colombian Cohort. 1. a.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction/Background Pain is a sensory and emotional experience perceived in terms of tissue damage and expressed in terms of altered behaviour. Chronic, medically unexplained pain is complex, disabling and common. It is important to rule out medical or modifiable causes, but most tests will not result in significant changes in management nor prognosis. Attempting rehabilitation before the patient narrative has been fully explained usually leads to a lack of progress. Sleep deprivation is important to acknowledge and restorative sleep has analgesic and fatigue-improving properties.

The problems surrounding abortion pose a threat to patient autonomy and beneficence—ethical principles that are usually upheld in medicine.

Abstract:

### Abstract 1-cell embryo transfer is best performed after allowing injected embryos a little recovery time in culture. This allows better evaluation of the cells' survival - those that have been damaged during the injection process will undergo cytoplasmic condensation, causing the cellular material to become less glossy and darker in color as the cytoplasm shrinks away from the zona pellucida. This should be balanced against the increased survival rate with decreased in vitro exposure. ### The Recipient Careful selection of the recipient is most important as the pups are the end result of a

Abstract:

Introduction: Conceptualizing DisabilityThe two most prominent models for understanding disability are the medical model and the social model (“Disability”). The medical model locates disability in the person and emphasises the possibility of a cure, reinforcing the idea that disability is the fault of the disabled person, their body, their genes, and/or their upbringing. The social model, formulated as a response to the medical model, presents disability as a failure of the surrounding environment to accommodate differently abled bodies and minds.

One of the problems working with and about technology is trying to define what exactly technology actually is. This seemingly straightforward, even banal question -- because, let's face it, we all know what technology is, don't we...? -- has caused philosophers since Aristotle no end of grief, and causes humble graduate students like myself unspeakable dilemmas. Attempting to define what technology is involves diving headlong into such murky problems as the subject/object dichotomy, the ontology of artefacts and the limits of the body -- that is, the very definition of humanity, if I may be so

A relationship far less well-documented though is that between popular novels and the films that have spawned them. With the nota

A little time is given between injection and transfer to allow blastocysts to re-expand. **The Recipient** Careful selection of the recipient is most important as the pups are the end result of a lot of hard work. Two strains of mice are used:RB Swiss and (CBA*C57BL6/J)f1. RB Swiss are quiet and make excellent mothers but they become overweight quickly and do exhibit bad planes of anaesthesia.

Halle states that this categorisation of culture into “high culture” and “popular culture” underlined most of the debate on culture in the last fifty years.
