Horner's Rule-Based Multiplication over Fp and Fp^n: A Survey

International audienceThis paper aims at surveying multipliers based on Horner's rule for finite field arithmetic. We present a generic architecture based on five processing elements and introduce a classification of several algorithms based on our model. We provide the readers with a detailed description of each scheme which should allow them to write a VHDL description or a VHDL code generator

A case of thoracic esophageal cancer undergone esophagectomy after induction chemotherapy in a Jehovah’s Witness

We report the case of a 50-year-old female Jehovah’s Witness with advanced esophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy following induction chemotherapy. She visited our hospital complaining of dysphagia and was diagnosed of advanced esophageal cancer by upper endoscopy. She refused allogeneic transfusion. Induction chemotherapy was performed. Severe anemia occurred as an adverse event. A subtotal esophagectomy was performed after her anemia improved. During the surgery, a large volume of replacement fluid was injected, the blood was diluted, and intraoperative bleeding was relatively reduced. Intraoperative blood salvage was made using Cell Saver. The postoperative course were stable by using autologous blood and albumin infusion. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 27. Jehovah’s Witnesses with gastrointestinal malignancies can be treated safely by performing surgical therapy based on blood replacement therapy and autologous blood transfusion

Photodynamic therapy for submucosal tumor of the central bronchus

A 75-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of the emphysema and tumor of the right intermediate bronchus. Thoracic CT scan and bronchoscopic examination demonstrated a spherical tumor of the right intermediate bronchus covering a normal mucosa. The biopsy specimen obtained from this tumor was histologically diagnosed as“glandular type of adenocarcinoma in the bronchus”. Surgical treatment was not feasible because of poor pulmonary function. Therefore, the patient underwent Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using porfimer sodium (Photofrin) and an excimer dye laser. After 4 months, the tumor disappeared and there has been no recurrence for 3 years 3 months. PDT can affect a submucosal tumor of the central airway, and is safe for patients with poor pulmonary function. Our report recommends that PDT should be applied not only to early lung cancer but also submucosal tumor of the central bronchus

A case of early relapsed multiple lung metastases after esophagectomy successfully treated with S-1/cisplatin therapy after docetaxel/5-fluorouracil/cisplatin therapy

A 55-year-old-male patient underwent subtotal esophagectomy for esophageal cancer (pT1b, N0, M0, stage II) in April 2005. The patient received postoperative chemotherapy (docetaxel 40 mg/body, 5-fluorouracil 750 mg/body, cisplatin 10 mg/body : administered every 4 weeks) for 3 months. Six months postoperatively, routine follow up CT demonstrated multiple metastatic tumors in the bilateral lungs. Under the diagnosis of multiple lung metastases, the patient was hospitalized and received intensive chemotherapy with docetaxel 40 mg/ week (day 1), 5-fluorouracil 500 mg/ day (days 1-5), cisplatin 10 mg/ day (days 1-5). After two weeks administration, the patient eagerly hoped for outpatient treatment. The treatment was changed to outpatient chemotherapy with S-1 100 mg/ day (continuous administration for 3 weeks followed by rest for 1 week) and cisplatin 20 mg/ every week. The treatment enabled the patient to keep working. Follow up CT showed disappearance of all tumors two months after TS-1/cisplatin chemotherapy. There were no obvious signs of recurrence 5 months after chemotherapy. The S-1/cisplatin therapy in the outpatient was thought to be one of the effective treatments in maintaining quality of life for the patient

The patient was 33-year-old woman, who was diagnosed as having left breast cancer at the 12th week of pregnancy and referred to our hospital. In palpation and ultrasonography, we found a tumor but no swelling lymph nodes in the C area of the left breast. Core needle biopsy showed invasive ductul carcinoma with ER(-), PgR(-) and HER2+(3+). At 16th week of pregnancy, partial resection and the sentinel lymph node biopsy of left breast were performed to the patient. After the surgery, she received 4 courses of doxorubicin+cyclophosphamide therapy (AC therapy), and at 35th week of pregnancy, she delivered her baby by cesarean section. During the pregnancy and operation, there had not been any problems with the patient and her baby. After the childbirth, she underwent 4 courses of docetaxel+trastumab therapy (TH therapy) and the remaining tumor was removed. Now, she is undergoing radiotherapy and neither recurrence nor metastasis is observed

The patient was６０years old, man. He is in the hospital with diabetes and spinal cord injury, admitted passing disorder, diagnosed with advanced esophageal cancer, and introduced to our hospital. Start the chemotherapy following systemic examination became operative after completion chemotherapy. Chest operation is carried out under full thoracoscopy, the end without any problems. Abdominal operation is done laparoscopy, towing the thoracic esophagus into the abdominal cavity, who developed ventricular fibrillation in a few minutes after the esophageal hiatus became a release. Immediately start cardiopulmonary resuscitation, underwent defibrillation, it was restored to the normal waveform. It was restarted operation. Reconstruction using a gastric tube, in the chest wall before route, was anastomosis in the neck. The postoperative course good, rather than after-effects and postoperative complications, and it was discharged on day ３４. Esophageal cancer surgery is a highly invasive surgical procedure, there is a high frequency of arrhythmia will develop. We ventricular fibrillation develop in the esophagus resection surgery, and that a reported rare example that was life-saving

Autofluorescence bronchoscopy, a novel modality for the early detection of bronchial premalignant and malignant lesions

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in developed countries. Recently, autofluorescence bronchoscopy has been reported to improve the early detection of lung cancer in high-risk individuals. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of autofluorescence bronchoscopy for the early detection of bronchial premalignant and malignant lesions. From November 2000 through March 2004, 123 high-risk individuals (114 men and 9 women with a mean age of 68 years) were enrolled. Among 282 biopsy specimens, 93 (33.0%) were premalignant or malignant lesions. The sensitivity and negative predictive value for the detection of bronchial premalignant and malignant lesions were significantly higher with the addition of autofluorescence bronchoscopy than white light bronchoscopy alone. Moreover, the sensitivity for the detection of bronchial premalignant lesions was extremely higher with the addition of autofluorescence bronchoscopy than white light bronchoscopy alone, whereas there was no significant difference between autofluorescence bronchoscopy and white light bronchoscopy alone for the detection of non-malignant and malignant lesions. Autofluorescence bronchoscopy is a novel modality for the early detection of bronchial abnormality, especially for bronchial premalignant lesions

Oncologic Emergency Medical（OCM）card is to guarantee medical care to be provided by Tokushima Municipal Hospital to advanced cancer patients who once receive medical care in the institution even after they are referred to other hospitals or when their medical condition is worsened. Forty-seven cancer patients have been issued with the OCM card between April２０１５ and March ２０１６. For those patients, we have retrospectively investigated the actual medical services provided by our hospital and cooperation with other hospitals and clinics. The card was issued for ３８ patients who were under palliative treatment. More than half of all the patients issued with the card were in the department of surgery, and eight of them were colon cancer patients, who consisted the largest portion. Exacerbation of pain was the most common reason for those who used the card at the emergency outpatient visit, but more than half of them could return home within the same day. Although seven of fourteen patients who were determined to be under home care were eventually re-hospitalized, all the fourteen patients were able to spend as long time as possible at their own home due to the card system. During one year after the introduction of the OCM card system, there has been no trouble with the acceptance of emergency outpatient visits and the cooperation of Tokushima Municipal Hospital with other hospitals and clinics
