OBJECTIVES: To determine the systemic response to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL)
and mini-PCNL (MPCNL) and evaluate whether MPCNL is less invasive than PCNL, as …

A new perspective of physical understanding is presented in this paper for the propagation
and attenuation behaviours of the beam coupled with periodic resonators. Wavenumber …

Current predictive tools and imaging modalities are not accurate enough for preoperative
diagnosis of lymph node metastatic prostate cancer (LNM PCa). Proteomic analysis is …

The aim of this study was to identify a urine extracellular vesicle circular RNA (circRNA)
classifier that could detect high-grade prostate cancer (PCa) of Grade Group (GG) 2 or greater. …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been increasingly linked to cancer progression. However,
the detailed biological functions of circRNAs in prostate cancer (PCa) remain unclear. Using …

This paper deals with one-dimensional beam-type flexural wave behaviours of the
orthogonally stiffened plate. A truncated model with one stringer and multiple stiffeners is …

A molecular-design strategy to retain the large triplet energy of carbazole for application in
high efficient organic blue electrophorescent devices based on 3, 6-bis (triphenylsilyl) …

Passive rehabilitation training in the early poststroke period can promote the reshaping of the
nervous system. The trajectory should integrate the physicians’ experience and the patient’…

OBJECTIVE: To explore whether the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) participates in regulation
of the anti-myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) effect of electroacupuncture (EA) …

Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed non-cutaneous cancer and one of the leading
causes of cancer death for North American men. Whereas localized prostate cancer can …
