The major pathways of human pharmaceuticals into the environment are from their use by individuals either at home or under medical supervision in hospitals, and to a lesser extent by the disposal of unwanted or out of date drugs. The administered pharmaceu ...
The aim of this study was to characterize hospital effluents in investigating the CHUV importance as source of pollutants, the range and amounts of pharmaceuticals that are used in the hospital and the need of source treatment of the hospital sewage. The C ...
Pharmaceuticals constitute an important environmental issue for receiving waters. A holistic approach, taking into consideration the sources of these compounds (hospitals, domestic use), discharges (wastewater effluent, combined sewer overflows) and relate ...
The conventional treatment for the cure of esophageal cancer is surgical resection. Esophageal cancer, when detected at an early stage, has a very good probability of being eradicated by less aggressive procedures, and photodynamic therapy has proven to be ...
The system for marking the surface of tissue, for example in the body of a patient, comprises a delivery means with a head for treating a determined zone and a marking means for delivering a marker, wherein said delivery and marking means are in close prox ...
This study compares six wastewater sludge treatment scenarios applied to a 300,000 equivalent-inhabitant (eq. inh) wastewater treatment plant: agricultural spreading, fluidised bed incineration, wet oxidation, pyrolysis, incineration in cement kilns and la ...
Purpose: To report the lethal course of malignant transformation of retinoma in an adult. Methods: Case report. A 40-year-old patient presented with retinoma in his right eye and retinoblastoma in his left eye. Enucleation was recommended but refused and t ...
Modern material technology relies increasingly on processes for surface modification and coating. Generally, we are lacking a possibility to monitor the progress of such processes. Thus the outcome can only be analyzed after the end of the whole process cy ...
BACKGROUND: High-throughput gene expression profiling technologies generating a wealth of data, are increasingly used for characterization of tumor biopsies for clinical trials. By applying machine learning algorithms to such clinically documented data set ...
Purpose: We investigate a new heat delivery technique for the local treatment of solid tumors. The technique involves injecting a formulation that solidifies to form an implant in situ. This implant entraps superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION ...
