Tumor-targeted Dual-modality Imaging to Improve Intraoperative Visualization of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: A First in Man Study.

TL;DR: This first in man study shows that tumor-targeted dual-modality imaging using 111In-DOTA-girentuximab-IRDye800CW is safe and can be used for intraoperative guidance of ccRCC resection.

Chronic kidney disease and the risks of death, cardiovascular events, and hospitalization

TL;DR: The longitudinal glomerular filtration rate was estimated among 1,120,295 adults within a large, integrated system of health care delivery in whom serum creatinine had been measured between 1996 and 2000 and who had not undergone dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Estimating the mean and variance from the median, range, and the size of a sample.

TL;DR: Two simple formulas are found that estimate the mean using the values of the median, low and high end of the range, and n (the sample size) and these hope to help meta-analysts use clinical trials in their analysis even when not all of the information is available and/or reported.
