Question: Question: Do an update in the palliative management of malignant dysphagia?
Answer: Palliative treatment for oesophageal cancer should be individualized and relate to tumour stage, size and location, the patient's medical condition and his/her personal wishes. The palliative treatment largely includes self-expanding metal stents (SEMS), laser (including photodynamic therapy (PDT)) or a combination of the two to relieve symptoms, this may be employed with or without other treatments such as radiotherapy/chemotherapy (RT/CT) with the aim of reducing tumour bulk and possibly prolonging survival. A multi-disciplinary approach is vital in patients with advanced oesophageal cancer.

Answer: yes


Question: Question: Does patellar taping change the amplitude of electromyographic activity of the vasti in a stair stepping task?
Answer: The results of this study indicate that the positive clinical effects of medially directed therapeutic tape are not due to changes in EMG amplitude of the vasti muscle. Thus other effects such as changes in timing of contraction of the vasti are more likely candidates for the mechanism of efficacy.

Answer: no


Question: Question: Does hypothermic circulatory arrest cause multisystem vascular endothelial dysfunction and apoptosis?
Answer: DHCA is associated with endothelial dysfunction in cerebral microvessels but not in the in vivo transcranial vasculature; in addition, endothelial dysfunction was noted in large-caliber renal arteries and pulmonary veins. DHCA is also associated with duodenal apoptosis. Vascular endothelial dysfunction and apoptosis may be involved in the pathophysiology of multisystem organ failure after DHCA.

Answer:
yes
