ASSESSING RISK FACTORS FOR COMPLICATIONS IN COMPUTER TOMOGRAPHY-GUIDED LUNG BIOPSY: QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS FOR PREDICTING PNEUMOTHORAX

Assessing risk factors for complications in computer tomography-guided lung biopsy: quantitative analysis for predicting pneumothorax

BACKGROUND: Computer tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy carries the risk of pneumothorax.A variety of other risk factors affect the occurrence of pneumothorax.OBJECTIVE: Assess the incidence and risk factors associated with pneumothorax complications in CT-guided lung biopsy, and to conduct a quantitative analysis of the variables among the signifi

Nuclear complement C3b promotes paclitaxel resistance by assembling the SIN3A/HDAC1/2 complex in non-small cell lung cancer

Abstract In addition to the classical role as a serum effector system of innate immunity, accumulating evidence suggests Cleaners that intracellular complement components have indispensable functions in immune defense, T cell homeostasis, and tumor cell proliferation and metastasis.Here, we revealed that complement component 3 (C3) is remarkably up

Modified design of microstrip patch antenna for UWB applications

Ultra-wideband (UWB) patch antenna for Ku/K band applications is presented.In this paper, a microstrip line feed has been modified to an Mask elliptical gradient structure, and the conventional radiator patch has been developed through the use of the symmetrically circular slots.These modifications have been used to improve the performance of the a
