PERIOPERATIVE CANCER CELL DISSEMINATION DETECTED WITH A REAL-TIME RT-PCR ASSAY FOR EPCAM IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH WORSE PROGNOSIS IN PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA

Abstract Background Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) has been used as surrogate marker for the quantification of circulating tumour cells (CTC).Our aim was to prospectively study the value of a real-time RT-PCR assay for EpCAM detection in the peripheral blood and peritoneal cavity of patients undergoing pancreatectomy for pancreatic ducta

Within the de Sitter ambient space framework, the two different bases of the one-particle Hilbert space of the de Sitter group algebra are presented for the scalar case.Using field operator algebra and its Fock space construction in this formalism, we discuss the existence of asymptotic states in de Sitter QFT under an extension of the adiabatic hy

Affection of the nervous system in acute leukemia is characterized by polymorphism of clinical symptoms, in which connection patients can seek medical help from doctors of various specializations.Eventually, this may affect the timeliness of diagnosis, treatment, and disease outcomes.The report provides a clinical observation of incomplete neuroleu

Abstract Emerging evidence has confirmed the inextricable connection between N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) mRNA modification and the clinical characteristics of malignancies.Nonetheless, it swisse high strength magnesium powder berry is uncertain whether and how ac4C mRNA modification patterns affect clinical outcomes in melanoma patients.This research

The channel matrix of the commonly used uniform circular array-based orbital angular momentum (UCA-OAM) system reaches the full-rank state when the degree of freedom (DoF) is limited only by the number of UCA antenna elements.The rank of the channel matrix of the UCA-OAM system is equal to DoF under this condition.However, the practical DoF of the
