Impact of Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection on Early Oncological Outcomes in Intermediate-Risk Prostate Cancer Patients With Node-Negative PSMA PET. [PDF]

open access: yesProstate
ABSTRACT Background PSMA PET/CT has previously shown superior performance in nodal staging of prostate cancer (PCa) and may be used to reduce the number of unnecessary PLND procedures. This study aims to assess the performance of PSMA PET/CT in nodal staging of intermediate‐risk prostate cancer and to evaluate the effect of PLND on oncological outcomes

The Use of Social Network in Daily Pediatric Practice and Education: Turkish Pediatric Atelier

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatrics, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Using social media applications in pediatric education is not outdated, and its effectiveness has not been tested yet. For this reason, we shared the first results of the Pediatric Atelier experience that we realized through telegram application. We make an online survey to investigate the needs, requirements, pleasure, and suggestions of members ...

Biomechanical Evaluation of a Novel Apatite‐Wollastonite Ceramic Cage Design for Lumbar Interbody Fusion: A Finite Element Model Study

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Objectives. Cage design and material properties play a crucial role in the long‐term results, since interbody fusions using intervertebral cages have become one of the basic procedures in spinal surgery. Our aim is to design a novel Apatite‐Wollastonite interbody fusion cage and evaluate its biomechanical behavior in silico in a segmental spinal model.

Effect of Aspect Ratio and Boundary Conditions in Modeling Shape Memory Alloy Nanostructures with 3D Coupled Dynamic Phase‐Field Theories

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The behavior of shape memory alloy (SMA) nanostructures is influenced by strain rate and temperature evolution during dynamic loading. The coupling between temperature, strain, and strain rate is essential to capture inherent thermomechanical behavior in SMAs.

Morphology Controlled Synthesis of α‐GaO(OH) Nanoparticles: Thermal Conversion to Ga2O3 and Photocatalytic Properties

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Morphology controlled α‐GaO(OH) particles have been synthesized via precipitation method which allows the tuning of relative growth rates of crystal facets. The effects of alkali addition rate and the type of alkali on the growth rates of the crystal facets during hydrolysis were also investigated.

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery in Patients Who Previously Underwent Open Renal Stone Surgery

open access: yesMinimally Invasive Surgery, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Purpose. To ascertain whether retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is as effective in patients treated previously with open renal stone surgery (ORSS) on the same kidney as in patients with no previous ORSS. Methods. There were 32 patients with renal stones who had previous ORSS and were treated with RIRS in the study group (Group 1).

Flexible Ureteroscopy Can Be More Efficacious in the Treatment of Proximal Ureteral Stones in Select Patients

open access: yesAdvances in Urology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Purpose. We aimed to compare and evaluate the outcomes and complications of two endoscopic treatment procedures, semirigid ureteroscopy (SR‐URS) and flexible ureteroscopy (F‐URS), in the treatment of proximal ureteral stones (PUS). Methods. SR‐URS (group 1) was done on 68 patients whereas 64 patients underwent F‐URS (group 2) for the treatment of PUS ...
