An Open-Label Phase II Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Ramucirumab Combined With mFOLFOX-6 as First-Line Therapy for Metastatic Colorecta…
2014
Abstract Author Summary Background. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) are believed to mediate angiogenesis in colorectal cancer (CRC). Ramucirumab (RAM; IMC-1121B) is a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that inhibits VEGF ligand binding to VEGFR-2, inhibiting VEGFR-2 activation and signaling. Methods. Patients with metastatic CRC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0–1, and adequate organ function who had not received chemotherapy for metastatic disease received RAM and the modified FOLFOX-6 regimen every 2 weeks. Endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate, overall survival, and safety. The sample size wa…
VEGF receptor signaling links inflammation and tumorigenesis in colitis-associated cancer.
2010
Inflammation drives expression of VEGFR2, which is expressed on and drives growth of tumor cells in colitis-associated cancer.
Molecular imaging of VEGF in gastrointestinal cancer in vivo using confocal laser endomicroscopy
2010
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a therapeutic target in gastrointestinal cancer (GiC). However, its in vivo visualisation could not be achieved to date with endoscopic techniques. Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) is a novel imaging technique for gastrointestinal endoscopy providing in vivo microscopy at subcellular resolution. The aim of the study was to evaluate CLE for in vivo molecular imaging of VEGF in GiC.Molecular imaging of tumours in APCmin mice, in xenograft models and in surgical specimens of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) was achieved after application of labelled antibodies. The tumour sites were scanned with the probe for the strongest specific fluoresce…
Tyrosine Phosphorylation Modulates the Vascular Responses of Mesenteric Arteries from Human Colorectal Tumors
2013
The aim of this study was to analyze whether tyrosine phosphorylation in tumoral arteries may modulate their vascular response. To do this, mesenteric arteries supplying blood flow to colorectal tumors or to normal intestine were obtained during surgery and prepared for isometric tension recording in an organ bath. Increasing tyrosine phosphorylation with the phosphatase inhibitor, sodium orthovanadate produced arterial contraction which was lower in tumoral than in control arteries, whereas it reduced the contraction to noradrenaline in tumoral but not in control arteries and reduced the relaxation to bradykinin in control but not in tumoral arteries. Protein expression of VEGF-A and of th…
Video Streaming Distribution in VANETs
2011
Streaming applications will rapidly develop and contribute a significant amount of traffic in the near future. A problem, scarcely addressed so far, is how to distribute video streaming traffic from one source to all nodes in an urban vehicular network. This problem significantly differs from previous work on broadcast and multicast in ad hoc networks because of the highly dynamic topology of vehicular networks and the strict delay requirements of streaming applications. We present a solution for intervehicular communications, called Streaming Urban Video (SUV), that 1) is fully distributed and dynamically adapts to topology changes, and 2) leverages the characteristics of streaming applica…
Superior mesenteric vein thrombosis following open right hemicolectomy and cholecystectomy. Case report
2020
INTRODUZIONE: La SMVT è una seria, rara complicanza della chirurgia addominale. I fattori di rischio sono molteplici, ma scarsamente descritti tanto che i dati sono insufficienti per creare gold standard per la diagnosi e trattamento. La SMVT ha un ampio spettro di presentazioni cliniche, così che spesso la sua diagnosi precoce può essere complessa. CASE REPORT: Una donna obesa di 56 anni con un disordine protrombotico ereditario è stata sottoposta ad emicolectomia destra e colecistectomia open; l’immediato decorso post-operatorio è stato regolare e la paziente è stata dimessa in quinta giornata post-operatoria. In ottava giornata post-operatoria la paziente ha presentato dolore addominale …
Color superposition: a new modality for contrast echocardiography.
1987
To improve the estimation of endocardial borders in echocardiography, a technique has been developed to combine images from contrasted and noncontrasted echocardiograms of the same heart-phase using a color superposition mode. This method allows both experienced as well as less experienced examiners to define the endocardial borders more reproducibly and objectively. This is achieved by displaying tissue structures as gray level images while the ventricular cavity is marked selectively by the color display of the contrast material zone. Results of volume estimations of the left ventricle by different examiners using several imaging modes including color superposition display are presented.
Distributed Leader Election and Computation of Local Identifiers for Programmable Matter
2019
International audience; The context of this paper is programmable matter, which consists of a set of computational elements, called particles, in an infinite graph. The considered infinite graphs are the square, triangular and king grids. Each particle occupies one vertex, can communicate with the adjacent particles, has the same clockwise direction and knows the local positions of neighborhood particles. Under these assumptions, we describe a new leader election algorithm affecting a variable to the particles, called the k-local identifier, in such a way that particles at close distance have each a different k-local identifier. For all the presented algorithms, the particles only need a O(…
Chromatic sums for colorings avoiding monochromatic subgraphs
2015
Abstract Given graphs G and H, a vertex coloring c : V ( G ) → N is an H-free coloring of G if no color class contains a subgraph isomorphic to H. The H-free chromatic number of G, χ ( H , G ) , is the minimum number of colors in an H-free coloring of G. The H-free chromatic sum of G , Σ ( H , G ) , is the minimum value achieved by summing the vertex colors of each H-free coloring of G. We provide a general bound for Σ ( H , G ) , discuss the computational complexity of finding this parameter for different choices of H, and prove an exact formulas for some graphs G. For every integer k and for every graph H, we construct families of graphs, G k with the property that k more colors than χ ( …
