Is receipt of Care Discordant with Practice Guidelines Associated with Compromised Overall Survival in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma?
Many patients with stages I and IVC nasopharyngeal carcinoma do not receive care in accordance with practice guidelines. Receiving guidelines-discordant care is associated with compromised overall survival in the USA.
Ethanol does not distribute uniformly into the TBW. The precision of measuring Vss by ethanol dilution was comparable to estimates of TBW by isotope dilution. Results of noninvasive breath ethanol analysis compared well with use of venous blood for estimating Vss. The sophisticated two-compartment model was much superior to the classical one-compartment model in explaining the total concentration-time course of intravenously given ethanol.
