RADIATION THERAPY AFTER RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY FOR PROSTATE CANCER: EVALUATION OF COMPLICATIONS AND INFLUENCE OF RADIATION TIMING ON OUTCOMES IN A LARGE, POPULATION-BASED COHORT.

PurposeTo evaluate the influence of timing of salvage and adjuvant radiation therapy on outcomes after prostatectomy for prostate cancer.MethodsUsing the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Tracking Roller Results-Medicare linked database, we identified prostate cancer patients diagnosed during 1995-2007 who had one or more adverse pathological fea

Over the past two Kimberwick years (2008 and 2009), the travel industry got hit pretty badly by the international economic crisis.Even luxury hotels - which seemed immune so far- are reporting low rates of occupancy and high rates of cancellations.For the New Year (2010), just like in 2009, the word of the day is "sustainability".No one is looking

Abstract Peptidoglycan polymerases, enterobacterial common antigen polymerases, O-antigen ligases, and other bacterial polysaccharide polymerases (BP-Pols) are glycosyltransferases (GTs) that build bacterial surface polysaccharides.These integral membrane enzymes share the particularity of using diphospholipid-activated sugars and were previously m

During emergency return or mission change, the boost-glide vehicle needs to meet the nonregular reachable area constraints (NRACs).Therefore, this paper introduced NRACs into boost-phase trajectory planning to extend the maneuvering range and enhance the mission adaptability of boost-glide vehicle.Firstly, the library of the reachable area boundari
