Therapeutic starvation and autophagy in prostate cancer: a new paradigm for targeting metabolism in cancer therapy.

29 Nov 2008 BACKGROUND: Autophagy is a starvation induced cellular process of self-digestion that allows cells to degrade cytoplasmic contents. The understanding of autophagy, as either a mechanism of resistance to therapies that induce metabolic stress, or as ... Read more...

Minimal interruption of cardiopulmonary resuscitation for a single shock as mandated by automated external defibrillations does not compromise outcomes in a porcine model of cardiac arrest and resuscitation.

30 Oct 2008 OBJECTIVES: Current automated external defibrillations require interruptions in chest compressions to avoid artifacts during electrocardiographic analyses and to minimize the risk of accidental delivery of an electric shock to the rescuer. The ... Read more...

Prediction of clinical outcomes in primary biliary cirrhosis by serum enhanced liver fibrosis assay.

30 Oct 2008 Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is sometimes diagnosed based on a positive antimitochondrial antibody in the appropriate clinical setting without a liver biopsy. Although a liver biopsy can assess the extent of liver fibrosis and provide prognostic ... Read more...
