Does treatment for hyperglycemia promote pancreatic regeneration in rats without CCK-1 receptor gene expression?
We conclude that the control of serum glucose levels plays an important role in preventing pancreatic atrophy and participates in the non-CCK-1-receptor-mediated mechanisms of pancreatic growth in rats.
Primary tumor resection failed to prolong overall survival times in patients with incurable advanced breast cancer that was greater than 5 cm. However, surgery did improve the quality of life in patients who were expected to have a relatively long prognosis.
