Are peritoneal carcinomatosis and lymph node metastasis prognostic indicators in patients with Borrmann type IV gastric carcinoma?
Peritoneal carcinomatosis and lymph node metastases are prognostic indicators in patients with Borrmann type IV gastric cancer. Optimal surgical strategy for Borrmann type IV gastric cancer remains unclear.
Our finding of delayed ERD onset in patients with more severe measures of brain damage, independently from clinical disability, suggests that functional cortico-cortical and cortico-subcortical connections underlying the expression of ERD during programming of voluntary movement are disrupted by the MS related pathological process. Further, studies are needed to evaluate the role of specific anatomical cortico-subcortical circuits in determining this abnormality.
