Induction chemotherapy plus radiation compared with surgery plus radiation in patients with advanced laryngeal cancer

TL;DR: Preliminary results suggest a new role for chemotherapy in patients with advanced laryngeal cancer and indicate that a treatment strategy involving induction chemotherapy and definitive radiation therapy can be effective in preserving the larynx in a high percentage of patients, without compromising overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma phospholipids identify antecedent memory impairment in older adults

TL;DR: This work discovered and validated a set of ten lipids from peripheral blood that predicted phenoconversion to either amnestic mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease within a 2–3 year timeframe with over 90% accuracy and may be sensitive to early neurodegeneration of preclinical Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased incidence of lymphoproliferative disorder after immunosuppression with the monoclonal antibody OKT3 in cardiac-transplant recipients.

TL;DR: The addition of OKT3 to the immunosuppressive regimen increases the incidence of post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder after cardiac transplantation, and the risk increases sharply after cumulative doses greater than 75 mg.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous Conversion and Maintenance of Sinus Rhythm by Amiodarone in Patients With Heart Failure and Atrial Fibrillation Observations from the Veterans Affairs Congestive Heart Failure Survival Trial of Antiarrhythmic Therapy (CHF-STAT)

TL;DR: In patients with CHF, amiodarone has a significant potential to spontaneously convert patients in AF to sinus rhythm, with patients who convert having a lower mortality rate than those who do not, and the drug prevented the development of new-onset AF and significantly reduced the VR in those with persistent AF.
Journal ArticleDOI

American Society of Clinical Oncology Clinical Practice Guideline for the Use of Larynx-Preservation Strategies in the Treatment of Laryngeal Cancer

TL;DR: Evidence supports the use of larynx-preservation approaches for appropriately selected patients without a compromise in survival; however, no larynic cancer treatment approach offers a survival advantage compared with total laryngectomy and adjuvant therapy with rehabilitation as indicated.
