Long-term efficacy of arthrocentesis was investigated in patients with degenerative temporomandibular disorder (TMD) in this clinical study.
In this clinical study we investigated the use and results of the LigaSure Vessel Sealıng Sytem (LVSS) (Valleylab, Boulder, CO) compared with conventional surgery in esophageal cancer resection.
Different strategies in vitamin D supplementation used in this clinical study elicited varying degrees of improvement in serum 25(OH D level.
In this clinical study, we evaluated the patients' clinical scores and MRI findings before and after tissue-engineered cartilage implantation, and compared the data obtained at 1 year and approximately 6 years post-implantation.
The ideal dosing found in this clinical study matched earlier preclinical studies in animal models.
However, only 1 partial response was observed in this clinical study when assessed with the conventional RECIST 1.1 criteria.
Yet, in this clinical study the sealing of the cuff was not significantly altered by the suctioning maneuver.
To improve quantification of pancreatic 111In-exendin uptake in this clinical study, a phantom mimicking the human situation was required.
The superior performance of the digital CZT SPECT system demonstrated in this clinical study was consistent with results previously reported in phantom studies [15, 16].
First, we could not obtain a planar image in this clinical study because of the patients' inability to tolerate acquisition times over 60 min, as previously discussed.
Several factors may explain why fluid leakage in the trachea under the cuff was constant after a suctioning maneuver in vitro but occurred rarely in this clinical study.
