“…This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of vitamin E for prevention of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy.DESIGN AND SETTINGProspective, phase II, randomized pilot study developed at a university hospital in the Greater ABC region.METHODSPatients were randomized five days before starting oxaliplatin treatment, to receive either vitamin E or placebo until the end of the chemotherapy regimen. …”

Dataset for: A novel diffusion-tensor MRI approach for skeletal muscle fascicle length measurements. by Jos Oudeman (3186549)

“…The plantarflexors (SOL and FL) showed significant increase in fascicle length from plantarflexion to dorsiflexion whereas the dorsiflexors (EDL and TA) exhibited a significant decrease. Conclusions: The use of a tract density for semi-automatic segmentation of tendinous structures provides more accurate estimates of the mean fascicle length than traditional fiber tractography methods. …”

Correlation analysis between short-term insulin-like growth factor-I and glucose intolerance status after transsphenoidal adenomectomy in acromegalic patients: a large retrospectiv... by Yi-Lin Li (826287)

“…Results: The follow-up levels for random GH, GH nadir, and the percentage of the upper limit of normal IGF-I (%ULN IGF-I) were decreased significantly. The percentages of normal (39.0%), early carbohydrate metabolism disorders (33.0%) and diabetes mellitus (28.0%) changed to 70.2%, 16.5% and 13.3%, respectively, after TSA. …”

Effect of atorvastatin on HMGB1 and IL-8 levels in HUVEC supernatants. by Alexandre W. S. de Souza (556095)

“…HMGB1 intensity in supernatants increases 8 hours after stimulation and a peak is observed at 24 hours with a decrease at 48 hours. 2B and C – HMGB1 and IL-8 levels are significantly higher at 24 hours in supernatants from HUVEC treated with LPS in comparison to unstimulated HUVEC while pre-incubation with 5 µM atorvastatin followed by LPS stimulation lowered HMGB1 and IL-8 levels significantly at 24 hours in HUVEC's supernatants. …”

Progression of Behavioral and CNS Deficits in a Viable Murine Model of Chronic Neuronopathic Gaucher Disease by Mei Dai (3105909)

“…In the conditional fear test, only the 9V/null males exhibited a significant decrease in response to contextual fear, but both genders showed less response to auditory-cued fear compared to age- and gender-matched WT at 12 months of age. …”
