Does tumor cell response to synchrotron microbeam radiation therapy differ markedly from cells in normal tissues?
This study provides evidence of a differential response at a cellular level between normal and tumor tissues after synchrotron MRT.
We studied changes in blood pressure during halothane anesthesia in infants and children and found that blood pressure decreased to a greater extent in infants who fasted for longer than 8 h before surgery. This exacerbation of the already significant hemodynamic depression observed in infants during halothane anesthesia underscores the importance of adherence to published fasting guidelines.
