We included patients from 23 institutions in Japan. We evaluated the objective response, radiographic progression‐free survival...
Introduction
Ureteral stent placement in robot‐assisted intracorporeal ileal conduit formation (RICIC) is more challenging than extracorporeal urinary diversion. We developed a novel dedicated device called the Assistent guide for safe and smooth performance of ureteral stent placement by the patient‐side surgeon (PSS).
Methods
This study reviewed the clinical records of 59 patients underwent RICIC...
The causal relationship between exposure to power‐frequency magnetic fields (MFs) and childhood leukemia has long been controversial. The most common type of childhood leukemia is acute B‐lymphoblastic leukemia caused by abnormal proliferation of B cells in the early differentiation process. Here, we focused on B‐cell early differentiation and aimed to evaluate the effects of exposing cells to power‐frequency...
