Sepsis is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the intensive care unit, and many studies have been conducted aiming to improve its outcome.
Until now, we have realized that the Nash equilibrium suffers from the lack of farsighted stability, i.e., the relative results can be unsatisfactory; because of this, any player can have incentive to improve its outcome by moving to another strategy.
With the guidelines laid for study-design strategies, use of better primary end points, and identifying biomarkers for personalizing use of chemotherapy to best responders will hopefully change the paradigm of treatment of advanced HCC and improve its outcome.
Although recent advances in chemotherapy have prolonged the survival of patients with advanced disease, the results are still unsatisfactory, and further research is required to understand the disease and improve its outcome (Wolpin et al, 2007; Wolpin and Mayer, 2008).
However, the treatment of stroke remains considerably unsatisfactory as the performance of almost all neuro-protective agents in the clinical treatment of patients with stroke had been disappointing 1, 2, 3. Therefore, new pharmacological strategies for stroke management are needed to improve its outcome and elucidate the physiological mechanism of this disease.
Over the last decade, trastuzumab has revolutionized the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer and improved its outcomes [ 10].
Several developed countries have implemented national pneumococcal vaccination programs for the elderly in order to prevent the disease and improve its outcomes [ 5- 8], although the incidence of the disease varies worldwide [ 9].
This outcome improves its potentiality for applications in large-scale reactors, because the resulting useful optical path length will be significantly large.
It is therefore important to reinforce the antineoplastic activity of the virus in order to improve its clinical outcome in such a scenario.
