TL;DR: One‐hundred‐ninety‐four eligible and evaluable patients with histologically confirmed locally unresectable adenocarcinoma of the pancreas were randomly assigned to therapy with high‐dose radiation therapy alone, to moderate‐dose (4000 rads) radiation + 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and to high‐ dose radiation plus 5‐FU.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer of the pancreas: diagnostic accuracy and survival statistics.
TL;DR: This study shows the necessity for standardization of reporting methods and some authors who claim the most effective palliation by pancreatic resection have the highest mortality rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of esophageal epithelial cell proliferation in patients with reflux esophagitis.
TL;DR: There is an increased basal zone uptake of [3H]thymidine in severe esophagitis which suggests increased cell turnover as the mechanism for basal zone hyperplasia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diastatic serosal lacerations: an unrecognized complication of colonoscopy.
TL;DR: A 5-year-old child underwent laparotomy and transabdominal polypectomy immediately after the performance of colonoscopy under general anesthesia, and serosal tears and lacerations were found in a loop of the sigmoid colon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Value of a single forceps biopsy of colonic polyps.
TL;DR: The accuracy of colonoscopic biopsies in predicting the histological diagnosis of colonic polyps removed at colonoscopy or at laparotomy was studied and 13 of the singular fractional biopsy did not demonstrate the significant histological features of the excised polyps.
