Intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET) for low back pain in worker's compensation patients: can it provide a potential answer?
IDET procedure can be a useful, safe, and cost-effective option in the management of carefully selected workers compensation claimants with chronic LBP of discogenic etiology.
Our findings implicate survivin in the maintenance of beta-cell mass through both replication and antiapoptotic mechanisms. Given the widespread involvement of survivin in cancer, a novel role for survivin may well be exploited in beta-cell regulation in diseased states, such as diabetes.
