What we do not know, hardly know, and really know about traffic safety by Leonard Evans (19773000)

“…Likewise, we have no direct experimental investigation of how a driver’s crash risk increases with increasing speed. Our estimate of the effectiveness of safety belts (4) in preventing fatalities rests on an assumption that we know is not true. …”

Effectiveness of Positron Emission Tomography for Predicting Chemotherapy Response in Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases by Glazer, Evan

“…For example, a few years ago an extrahepatic metastasis effectively eliminated surgical resection, but a combination of chemotherapeutic options and surgical techniques has expanded the indications for resection and increased the population of patients who may benefit.1,2 Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has increased the resectability rate by 11% to 37%.1 Unfortunately, greater than 80% of patients undergoing hepatic resection will have recurrences, mostly within the first 2 years.2 Nonetheless, the only hope for cure is resection, and prior surgical dogma based on the number of lesions, size of the tumor-free resection margin, and presence of resectable extrahepatic disease must be questioned.3- 5 The current standard approach to surgical planning is contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for specific tumor characteristics or contraindications to CT.6 Several series showed that focal extrahepatic disease, an isolated pulmonary lesion, can be safely resected, with 5-year survival rates of 29% to 58%.7,8 In 1 series,7 17 of 30 patients required 3 or more resections. …”

Effect of theophylline on l-alanine absorption in the rat jejunum by Daher, Costantine F.

“…Further inhibition (57–65%) is observed when the jejunal strips are incubated in a Na+-free medium containing 10 mM theophylline. Single-pass perfusion of the rat jejunum shows that the presence of 0.5 mM TH in the perfusate, simulating therapeutic doses, did not affect Ala absorption. …”
