The surgical treatment of substernal goiter
(Elsevier, 1994-09)
Substernal goiter remains a common consideration in the differential diagnosis of a mediastinal mass. Given the potential for serious goiter-related complications as well as the inability to rule out associated malignancy, ...

Reversal of Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin Anticoagulation by Synthetic Protamine Analogues
(Elsevier, 1994-06)
Protamine reversal of unfractionated and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) causes hypotension, bradycardia, pulmonary artery hypertension, and declines in oxygen consumption. Furthermore, protamine incompletely reverses ...
Protein profiles and identification of high performance liquid chromatography isolated proteins of cancer cell lines using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1998-12-30)
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) has been used to rapidly profile the protein content of human cell lysates from MCF-10 cell and variant lines. The method was used ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcome of completion thyroidectomy in patients with presumed unilateral well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC). The medical records of all patients having had ...
Oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production during liquid ventilation
(Elsevier, 1993-04)
Liquid ventilation with perfluorocarbon (PFCV) has advantages over conventional gas ventilation (GV) in premature and lung-injured newborn animals. Indirect calorimetric measurement of both oxygen consumption (VO2) and ...
Megacolon: an unusual presentation of malrotation
(Springer-Verlag, 1994-11)
This report describes a 9-year-old boy with a highly unusual variant of malrotation: massive colonic distention secondary to peritoneal bands and a localized volvulus. The presentation and treatment are presented.
