Residual tumor cells that drive disease relapse after chemotherapy do not have enhanced tumor initiating capacity. [PDF]
Although chemotherapy is used to treat most advanced solid tumors, recurrent disease is still the major cause of cancer-related mortality. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been the focus of intense research in recent years because they provide a possible ...

Prospective Cohort Study Comparing Varying Doses of Cisatracurium and Atracurium on Intubating Conditions in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy [PDF]
Introduction: Cisatracurium and atracurium are nondepolarising muscle relaxants belonging to benzylisoquinolinium group. Intubating dose of cisatracurium is found to be safer than atracurium owing to the histamine release and resultant respiratory and

An Intubator and Control System for Intratracheal Inoculation of Dust in Chickens
Abstract Transmission of Marek’s disease (MD) a lymphoproliferative disease of chickens is usually achieved in the laboratory by parenteral inoculation of infective material into the abdomen or subcutis. However, work at this laboratory has involved intratracheal inoculation of dry dust material in studies of the airborne transmission of MD.

Intubation-mediated Intratracheal (IMIT) Instillation: A Noninvasive, Lung-specific Delivery System [PDF]
Respiratory disease studies typically involve the use of murine models as surrogate systems. However, there are significant physiologic differences between the murine and human respiratory systems, especially in their upper respiratory tracts (URT). In some models, these differences in the murine nasal cavity can have a significant impact on disease ...

Orotracheal intubation in infants performed with a stylet versus without a stylet [PDF]
Background: Neonatal endotracheal intubation is a common and potentially life-saving intervention. It is a mandatory skill for neonatal trainees, but one that is difficult to master and maintain.
