RFA can achieve acceptable outcomes for HCC patients as a first-line treatment, especially for patients with Child-Pugh class A, patients with a single tumor and patients without portal vein hypertension.
The results of this study showed that RFA is a safe and locally effective method for the treatment of BCLM, especially in patients with lesions measuring less than 3 cm in diameter, a single liver metastasis, positive estrogen receptor status and no extrahepatic metastases. Also, patients with margin size >10 mm had no local tumor progression.
Software process tailoring (SPT) is a team-based and learning-intensive activity that addresses the particular dynamic characteristics of a development project. Because SPT critically influences how projects are conducted, its performance should be investigated. However, the extant literature lacks empirical evidence on how the underlying effects of SPT performance and its team-supportive factors operate and influence software project performance. From
There was no significant difference in long-term overall survival between the two groups even though the local progression rate was higher in the difficult group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
