ET-1 Plasma Levels, Aqueous Flare, and Choroidal Thickness in Patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa by Ernesto Strobbe, Mauro Cellini, Michela Fresina, Emilio C. Campos

“…Higher aqueous flare values were also demonstrated in RP compared to controls: in detail, 10.51±3.97 versus 5.66±1.29 photon counts/ms, P<0.0001. Spearman’s correlation test highlighted that the increase of ET-1 plasma levels was related with the decrease of choroidal thickness (r=-0.702; P<0.023) and the increase of aqueous flare (r=0.580; P<0.007). …”

The average relative dose intensity of R‐CHOP is an independent factor determining favorable overall survival in diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma patients by Monika Długosz‐Danecka, Sebastian Szmit, Tomasz Ogórka, Aleksander B. Skotnicki, Wojciech Jurczak

“…Prolonged intervals between cycles of immunochemotherapy—the most common cause of decreased ARDI (49.3%, 110/223)—were due to neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count <1.0 × 109/L) and infections. Reductions in cytostatic doses were observed in 19.7% (44/223) of patients, mainly as the consequence of cardiotoxicity (23/223, 10.3%). …”
