Early-stage clear cell tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma: imaging features and distinction from clear cell and papillary subtypes
(Springer Nature, 2016)Purpose: Clear cell tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma (CCTPRCC) is a recently described, low grade subtype of renal cancer. We determined if imaging features could be used to distinguish early-stage CCTPRCC from ... -
East meets West: ethnic differences in epidemiology and clinical behaviors of lung cancer between East Asians and Caucasians
(Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, 2011)Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, with large variation of the incidence and mortality across regions. Although the mortality of lung cancer has been decreasing, or steady in the US, it has been ... -
Eating Attitudes and Food Intakes of Elite Adolescent Female Figure Skaters: a Cross Sectional Study
(BioMed Central, 2012)Background: Elite adolescent female figure skaters compete in an aesthetic-based sport that values thin builds and lithe figures. To conform to the sport’s physical requirements, skaters may alter their eating patterns in ... -
Eating Disorders and Disordered Eating in Different Cultures
(1995)Clinical experience and research have moved the field toward greater recognition and differentiation of eating disorders as independent categories of mental disorder. Shorter's historical analysis, however, suggests that ... -
The EBNA3 Family of Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Proteins Associates with the USP46/USP12 Deubiquitination Complexes to Regulate Lymphoblastoid Cell Line Growth
(Public Library of Science, 2015)The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear proteins EBNA3A, EBNA3B, and EBNA3C interact with the cell DNA binding protein RBPJ and regulate cell and viral genes. Repression of the CDKN2A tumor suppressor gene products p16INK4A ... -
Ebola Virus Epidemiology and Evolution in Nigeria
(Oxford University Press, 2016)Containment limited the 2014 Nigerian Ebola virus (EBOV) disease outbreak to 20 reported cases and 8 fatalities. We present here clinical data and contact information for at least 19 case patients, and full-length EBOV ... -
Ebp1 Sumoylation, Regulated by TLS/FUS E3 Ligase, Is Required for Its Anti-Proliferative Activity
(Nature Publishing Group, 2010)Ebp1, an ErbB3 receptor-binding protein, inhibits cell proliferation and acts as a putative tumor suppressor. Ebp1 translocates into the nucleus and functions as a transcription co-repressor for E2F-1. Here, we show that ... -
EBV-Positive Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma in a Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Carrier
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-07-06)The development of B-cell lymphomas has been seldom described in HTLV-1 carriers. We present the case of an elderly Peruvian HTLV-1 carrier who was diagnosed with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Despite an ... -

Ecdysone Signaling at Metamorphosis Triggers Apoptosis of Drosophila Abdominal Muscles
(Elsevier BV, 2013-11-15)One of the most dramatic examples of programmed cell death occurs during Drosophila metamorphosis, when most of the larval tissues are destroyed in a process termed histolysis. Much of our understanding of this process ... -
ECG Morphological Variability in Beat Space for Risk Stratification After Acute Coronary Syndrome
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2014)Background: Identification of patients who are at high risk of adverse cardiovascular events after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a major challenge in clinical cardiology. We hypothesized that quantifying variability ... -
Echocardiographic Predictors of Mortality in Patients with Pulmonary Hypertension and Cardiopulmonary Comorbidities
(Public Library of Science, 2015)Objective: We aimed to identify the echocardiographic measures associated with survival in a patient population with a high prevalence of co-morbid cardiovascular and pulmonary disease that have significantly elevated ... -
Echocardiography Practice, Training and Accreditation in the Intensive Care: Document for the World Interactive Network Focused on Critical Ultrasound (WINFOCUS)
(BioMed Central, 2008)Echocardiography is increasingly used in the management of the critically ill patient as a non-invasive diagnostic and monitoring tool. Whilst in few countries specialized national training schemes for intensive care unit ... -
Echocardiography-derived left ventricular end-systolic regional wall stress and matrix remodeling after experimental myocardial infarction
(Elsevier BV, 1999)OBJECTIVES We tested the hypothesis that regional end-systolic left ventricular (ESLV) wall stress is associated with extracellular matrix remodeling activity after myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND Increased ... -
Ecological robustness of the gut microbiota in response to ingestion of transient food-borne microbes
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)Resident gut microbes co-exist with transient bacteria to form the gut microbiota. Despite increasing evidence suggesting a role for transient microbes on gut microbiota function, the interplay between resident and transient ... -
