Lack of Male-Female Differences in Disposition and Esterase Hydrolysis of Ramipril to Ramiprilat in Healthy Volunteers after a Single Oral Dose by Tom B. Vree, Erik Dammers, Ivan Ulc, Stefan Horkovics-Kovats, Miroslav Ryska, IJsbrand Merkx

“…The groups of female and male volunteers showed similar yields (AUCt = mg.h/L) of the metabolite ramiprilat (p = 0.37); however, females showed a higher AUCt/kg than males (p = 0.046). This difference was solely attributed to the difference in body weight between males and females (p = 0.00049). …”

Prognosis of nodal micrometastasis in resectable pN0 non-small cell lung cancer by Sophon Siwachat, Sophon Siwachat, Sophon Siwachat, Apichat Tantraworasin, Apichat Tantraworasin, Apichat Tantraworasin, Nirush Lertprasertsuke, Somcharoen Saeteng, Somcharoen Saeteng

“…Among pN0 patients, nodal micrometastasis was found in 21 cases (21.43%), distributed as follows: 2 (2.04%) in hilar and interlobar regions (N1), 17 (17.35%) in the mediastinal region (N2), and 2 in both hilar and mediastinal regions (N1+N2) (2.04%).Univariable analysis revealed that male sex and the presence of tumor necrosis increased both the recurrence rate of lung cancer and the mortality rate, whereas larger tumor size, intra-tumoral vascular invasion, and pleural invasion were associated solely with cancer recurrence. However, multivariable analysis showed no statistically significant difference in disease-free survival and overall survival between pN0 patients with and without NMM, with hazard ratios of 0.98 (95% CI: 0.31-3.08, P=0.973) and 1.11 (95% CI: 0.23-5.42, P=0.900), respectively.ConclusionNodal micrometastasis was identified in 21.43% of pN0 resectable NSCLC patients. …”
