Возможности сфинктеросохраняющего лечения больных местно-распространенным первично-неоперабельным раком прямой кишки

The aim of this study was to compare results of sphincter-sparing operations (SSO) and abdominoperineal resections (APR) in patients  undergoing combined treatment for unresectable locally-advanced rectal cancer.Methods. During September 2007 – January 2011 59 patients were enrolled. Original treatment scheme (RF patent № 2414936) was developed including radiotherapy 40 Gy in 4 Gy fractions, capecitabine 650 mg/m2 bid per os days 1-22, oxaliplatin 50 mg/m2 iv days 3, 10, 17, local hyperthermia on days 8, 12, 15, 17, 2 applications of metronidazole 10 g/m2 per rectum in a polymeric composition. Surgery was carried out following 6–8 weeks. SSO were carried out in 36 patients, APR in 23 patients. Study endpoints included 2-year OS and DFS, local recurrence and distant metastases rate, postoperative complications rate.Results. No significant differences in survival were observed: 2-year OS was 93.2 and 85.6 % (log- rank test p = 0.157) for SSO and APR groups accordingly, 2-year DFS was 88 and 71.9 % (log-rank test p = 0.064). Four (11.1 %) patients in SSO group and 4 (17.4 %) patients in APR group (р = 0.5511) developed local recurrences, 4 (11.1 %) and 7 (30.4 %) (р = 0.1293) developed distant metastases. Postoperative complications rate was 27.8 % (n = 10) and 39.1 % (n = 9) (р = 0.5181) in SSO and APR groups accordingly.Conclusions. Sphincter-sparting surgery is justified for unresectable locally advanced rectal cancer when technically feasible

One-dimensional hydrogen atom with minimal length uncertainty and maximal momentum

We present exact energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the one-dimensional hydrogen atom in the framework of the Generalized (Gravitational) Uncertainty Principle (GUP). This form of GUP is consistent with various theories of quantum gravity such as string theory, loop quantum gravity, black-hole physics, and doubly special relativity and implies a minimal length uncertainty and a maximal momentum. We show that the quantized energy spectrum exactly agrees with the semiclassical results.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figur

A RARE CASE OF TREATMENT POLICY FOR RECURRENT NEUROENDOCRINE CARCINOMA OF THE ANAL CANAL

A rare case of multicomponental treatment of low-differentiated anal neuroendocrine cancer is presented. By using combined treatment involving chemotherapy, local hyperthermia and radiotherapy a complete response of recurrent neuroendocrine cancer has been achieved.A review of modern methods of diagnostics and treatment of rectal neurtoendocrine tumors is presented and possibilities of modern combined treatment are discussed

Modal Analysis of Fluid Flows: An Overview

Simple aerodynamic configurations under even modest conditions can exhibit complex flows with a wide range of temporal and spatial features. It has become common practice in the analysis of these flows to look for and extract physically important features, or modes, as a first step in the analysis. This step typically starts with a modal decomposition of an experimental or numerical dataset of the flow field, or of an operator relevant to the system. We describe herein some of the dominant techniques for accomplishing these modal decompositions and analyses that have seen a surge of activity in recent decades. For a non-expert, keeping track of recent developments can be daunting, and the intent of this document is to provide an introduction to modal analysis in a presentation that is accessible to the larger fluid dynamics community. In particular, we present a brief overview of several of the well-established techniques and clearly lay the framework of these methods using familiar linear algebra. The modal analysis techniques covered in this paper include the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), balanced proper orthogonal decomposition (Balanced POD), dynamic mode decomposition (DMD), Koopman analysis, global linear stability analysis, and resolvent analysis

Equivalence of Local and Separable Realizations of the Discontinuity-Inducing Contact Interaction and Its Perturbative Renormalizability

We prove that the separable and local approximations of the discontinuity-inducing zero-range interaction in one-dimensional quantum mechanics are equivalent. We further show that the interaction allows the perturbative treatment through the coupling renormalization. Keywords: one-dimensional system, generalized contact interaction, renormalization, perturbative expansion.

Connection Conditions and the Spectral Family under Singular Potentials

To describe a quantum system whose potential is divergent at one point, one must provide proper connection conditions for the wave functions at the singularity. Generalizing the scheme used for point interactions in one dimension, we present a set of connection conditions which are well-defined even if the wave functions and/or their derivatives are divergent at the singularity. Our generalized scheme covers the entire U(2) family of quantizations (self-adjoint Hamiltonians) admitted for the singular system. We use this scheme to examine the spectra of the Coulomb potential $V(x) = - e^2 / | x |$ and the harmonic oscillator with square inverse potential $V(x) = (m \omega^2 / 2) x^2 + g/x^2$, and thereby provide a general perspective for these models which have previously been treated with restrictive connection conditions resulting in conflicting spectra. We further show that, for any parity invariant singular potentials $V(-x) = V(x)$, the spectrum is determined solely by the eigenvalues of the characteristic matrix $U \in U(2)$.Comment: TeX, 18 page
