Abstract
The goal of this paper is to explore the potential interest of image fusion in the context of multimodal scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging. In particular, we aim at merging the backscattered electron images that usually have a high spatial resolution but do not provide enough discriminative information to physically classify the nature of the sample, with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) images that have discriminative information but a lower spatial resolution. The produced images are named enhanced EDX. To achieve this goal, we have compared the results obtained with classical pansharpening techniques for image fusion with an original approach tailored for multimodal SEM fusion of information. Quantitative assessment is obtained by means of two SEM images and a simulated dataset produced by a software based on PENELOPE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare various conservative treatment options for high-grade T1 nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is the preferred intravesical treatment for high-grade T1 tumours; however, a number of experts still question the need for maintenance BCG. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively analysed data from 1039 patients with primary and recurrent T1G3 NMIBC. All patients underwent complete transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT), with muscle in the sample and multiple bladder biopsies. The patients were treated with the following: only one initial TURBT (n=108), re-TURBT (n=153), induction with 27mg of BCG (Connaught strain) (n=87), induction with 81mg of BCG (n=489) or induction with 81mg of BCG+maintenance (n=202). The time to first recurrence, progression (to T2 or greater or to metastatic disease) and specific mortality of the disease was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier survival function and were compared using the log-rank test and the Cox multivariate regression model of proportional risks. RESULTS The mean follow-up was 62±39 months. The risk of recurrence was significantly lower for the patients treated with maintenance therapy of 81mg of BCG than in the other treatment groups (P<.001). The risk of tumour progression was also significantly lower for the patients treated with maintenance BCG than for the patients treated only with one TURBT, re-TURBT and with induction therapy with 27mg of BCG (P=.0003). The specific disease mortality was significantly lower with BCG maintenance (9.4%) than with only one TURBT (27.8%; P=.003). CONCLUSIONS In the case of T1G3 NMIBC, a complete dose of BCG with maintenance is associated with better recurrence results than are other conservative treatment modalities. The results of progression and survival specific to the disease were also better with induction BCG, with or without maintenance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary leukotriene (LTE4) is an important marker of airway inflammation presence. A relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism in the glucocorticoid receptor (GCR) gene promoter (Bcl I polymorphism), development of asthma and sensitivity to glucocorticoids has been hypothesised. OBJECTIVE To explore the possible association between the Bcl I polymorphism and baseline levels of urinary LTE4 in preschoolers with recurrent wheezing episodes. We prospectively enrolled and classified 86 preschoolers based on the risk of developing asthma (by the Asthma Predictive Index [API]). METHODS At admission standardised questionnaires for demographics and respiratory illness characteristics were completed. The Bcl I polymorphism of the GCR was determined by a PCR-RFLP assay from blood samples, and urinary leukotriene was assessed from urine samples by an enzyme immunoassay. RESULTS We enrolled 86 preschoolers (46 with positive API and 40 with negative API). There were no statistical differences in demographic, respiratory illnesses and wheezing episodes characteristics between both groups. Also, the prevalence of Bcl I polymorphism was similar between positive vs. negative API groups (34.8% vs. 38.9% for homozygote GG, 56.5% vs. 52.8% for heterozygote GC, 8.7% vs. 8.3% for homozygote CC, respectively, p=0.94). However, urinary LTE4 (median [IQR]) was higher in preschoolers with positive than negative API (7.18 [5.57-8.96pg/ml] vs. 6.42 [3.96-8.07pg/ml], p=0.02, respectively). CONCLUSIONS In our population, wheezing preschoolers with positive API exhibit higher levels of urinary LTE4 than those with negative API; but there were no differences in Bcl I polymorphism of the GCR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE FM19G11 up-regulates mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and PI3K/Akt pathways, which are involved in endothelial function. We evaluated the effects of FM19G11 on defective endothelial vasodilatation in arteries from rats and humans and investigated the mechanisms involved. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Effects of chronic in vivo administration of FM19G11 on aortic endothelial vasodilatation were evaluated together with ex vivo treatment in aortic and mesenteric arteries from control and insulin-resistant rats (IRR). Its effects on vasodilator responses of penile arteries (HPRAs) and corpus cavernosum (HCC) from men with vasculogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) (model of human endothelial dysfunction) were also evaluated. Vascular expression of phosphorylated-endothelial NOS (p-eNOS), phosphorylated-Akt (p-Akt) and HIF-1α was determined by immunodetection and cGMP by elisa. KEY RESULTS Chronic administration of FM19G11 reversed the impaired endothelial vasodilatation in IRR. Ex vivo treatment with FM19G11 also significantly improved endothelium-dependent vasodilatation in aorta and mesenteric arteries from IRR. These effects were accompanied by the restoration of p-eNOS and cGMP levels in IRR aorta and were prevented by either NOS or PI3K inhibition. p-Akt and p-eNOS contents were increased by FM19G11 in aortic endothelium of IRR. FM19G11-induced restoration of endothelial vasodilatation was unaffected by mTOR/HIF-1α inhibitors. FM19G11 also restored endothelial vasodilatation in HPRA and HCC from ED patients. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Stimulation of the PI3K/Akt/eNOS pathway by FM19G11 alleviates impaired NO-mediated endothelial vasodilatation in rat and human arteries independently of mTOR/HIF-1α activation. This pharmacological strategy could be beneficial for managing pathological conditions associated with endothelial dysfunction, such as ED.

Abstract
There are few fully automated methods for liver segmentation in magnetic resonance images (MRI) despite the benefits of this type of acquisition in comparison to other radiology techniques such as computed tomography (CT). Motivated by medical requirements, liver segmentation in MRI has been carried out. For this purpose, we present a new method for liver segmentation based on the watershed transform and stochastic partitions. The classical watershed over-segmentation is reduced using a marker-controlled algorithm. To improve accuracy of selected contours, the gradient of the original image is successfully enhanced by applying a new variant of stochastic watershed. Moreover, a final classifier is performed in order to obtain the final liver mask. Optimal parameters of the method are tuned using a training dataset and then they are applied to the rest of studies (17 datasets). The obtained results (a Jaccard coefficient of 0.91 ± 0.02) in comparison to other methods demonstrate that the new variant of stochastic watershed is a robust tool for automatic segmentation of the liver in MRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We have evaluated the influence of calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa ) activation on cGMP-mediated relaxation in human penile tissues from non-diabetic and diabetic patients, and on the effects of PDE5 inhibitors on erectile responses in control and diabetic rats. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Cavernosal tissues were collected from organ donors and from patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Relaxations of corpus cavernosum strips (HCC) and penile resistance arteries (HPRA) obtained from these specimens were evaluated. Intracavernosal pressure (ICP) increases to cavernosal nerve electrical stimulation were determined in anaesthetized diabetic and non-diabetic rats. KEY RESULTS Concentration-dependent vasodilation to the PDE5 inhibitor, sildenafil, in HPRA was sensitive to endothelium removal, NO/cGMP pathway inhibition and KCa blockade. Accordingly, activation of KCa with NS-8 (10 μM) significantly potentiated sildenafil-induced relaxations in HPRA (EC50 0.49 ± 0.22 vs. 5.21 ± 0.63 μM). In HCC, sildenafil-induced relaxation was unaffected by KCa blockade or activation. Potentiating effects in HPRA were reproduced with an alternative PDE5 inhibitor (tadalafil) and KCa activator (NS1619) and prevented by removing the endothelium. Large-conductance KCa (BK) and intermediate-conductance KCa (IK) contribute to NS-8-induced effects and were immunodetected in human and rat penile arteries. NS-8 potentiated sildenafil-induced enhancement of erectile responses in rats. Activation of KCa recovered the impaired relaxation to sildenafil in diabetic HPRA while sildenafil completely reversed diabetes-induced ED in rats only when combined with KCa activation. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Activation of KCa improves vasodilatory capacity of PDE5 inhibitors in diabetic and non-diabetic HPRA, resulting in the recovery of erectile function in diabetic rats. These results suggest a therapeutic potential for KCa activation in diabetic ED.

Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is mainly hepatotropic; however, several reports document the presence of genomic viral RNA in extrahepatic sites including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). In this study, the presence of HCV RNA was initially evaluated in the plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 53 HCV-infected patients who were treated per protocol. PBMC-associated HCV RNA was detectable in 79% of patients. Early virological response to combined pegylated interferon-α (PegIFN) and ribavirin (RBV) therapy in patients with undetectable levels of PBMCs-associated HCV RNA was 100%, while it was 60% (P = 0.003) in those who had detectable levels of PBMC-associated HCV RNA. A sustained virological response was observed in 35% of patients with detectable PBMC-associated HCV RNA, but was 70% in patients with undetectable levels of PBMC-associated HCV RNA (P = 0.07). In a multivariate analysis incorporating parameters such as HCV genotype, viral load, presence of cirrhosis and absence of PBMC-associated HCV RNA, a significant relationship was observed between the detection of PBMC-associated HCV RNA and the sustained virological response (OR 19.4, 95% CI: 2.1-486.2, P = 0.0061). The association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in IL28B, known predictor of antiviral therapy outcome, and the occurrence of HCV RNA in PBMC in 84 chronically infected patients was then evaluated. Results suggest that the presence of a G allele in rs8099917, known to associate to a poor response to PegIFN/RBV therapy, also predicts an increased association of HCV RNA with PBMC (OR: 3.564; 95% CI: 1.114-11.40, P = 0.0437).

Abstract
Benign lymphangioendothelioma is a rare locally infiltrative vascular neoplasm, presenting as a slow-growing, asymptomatic, reddish-violaceous plaque. Histopathologically, it is characterized by irregular and thin-walled vascular spaces, lined by a single and discontinuous layer of flat endothelial cells, dissecting dermal collagen bundles. We present the case of a 75-year-old man with a giant benign lymphangioendothelioma, to our knowledge, the largest example described in the literature. The immunohistochemical expression of Wilms tumor 1 gene is useful in vascular lesions to differentiate malformations from proliferative endothelial lesions. In our case, the positivity for WT1 supports the neoplastic nature of this lesion.

Abstract
The authors present anatomical and functional evidences of dry age-macular degeneration improvement, after intravitreal treatment with dobesilate. Main outcomes measures were normalisation of retinal structure and function, assessed by optical coherence tomography, fundus-monitored microperimetry, electrophysiology and visual acuity. The effect might be related to the normalisation of the outer retinal architecture.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Study the opinion of the Spanish urologists regarding the main points in the diagnosis, prevention, quality of life and treatment of prostate cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS An anonymous questionnaire was administered to 290 specialists who represented the urological professional group involved in the management of prostate cancer in Spain. The following were considered in their definition: grade of professional experience, work setting, contractual relation with patient and academic character of the center. The statistical analysis was based on the study of relative frequencies for qualitative variables. The results were interpreted in 2009-10 and the final report of them was done in 2011. RESULTS Response rate collected and correctly transcribed from the forms was 96.9% (n=281). This accounts for 10-15% of the national group. Median age was 47.7 (29-69) years and 92% were men. Mean years of professional experience were 19.1 (1-43). Responses collected regarding 153 questions were analyzed. These dealt with: a) How the diagnosis of the disease was carried out in the setting of the surveyed; b) The opinions given on the disease prevention; c) Treatment of the localized treatment; d) Treatment of the advanced disease; and e) The definition of the fields of interest for the professional. CONCLUSION This survey showed important variability in some points of clinical practice in regards to the recommendations of the experts. It also shows the principal concerns of the professional, defines opportunities for training improvements and detects needs in the national urological group.

Abstract
Based on the continual medical education, in the first trimester of 2010 an expert in pain meeting has being made at Mexico City. The priority of the research was on educate residents of medical school or at their post graduate years, and the priority was on investigate of how our residents use adequate pain medication. In that first meeting at Mexico City, from different countries, the agreement was on inadequate use of pain treatment caused from inadequate education of the proper indication of drugs and other therapies for muscle skeletal pain. We decided to make a Latin American expert recommendation in chronic muscle pain where we include: epidemiological and socioeconomic pain data, actual classification of NSAIDs, pharmacological and other treatment in pain, and side effects of most popular drugs with actual recommendations. We include Medline guides, reviews, randomized studies and meta-analysis from 2001 to 2010.

Abstract
The propensity of upper tract transitional cell carcinoma towards recurrence and the limitations of upper tract endoscopy have led to nephroureterectomy being the gold standard treatment, even though major open surgery risks outweigh the risks of cancer. Thus, removal of the entire unit may not be warranted when the tumor can be safely controlled endoscopically. Recent advances in technology and techniques have permitted the effective endourologic management of upper transitional cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Radical cystectomy with extended pelvic lymphadenectomy remains the treatment of choice for muscle invasive bladder cancer and non-metastatic chorion-invasive high grade tumors resistant to treatment with intravesical chemotherapy. During the last decade the procedure has been refined and we have acquired the skills necessary to perform it using the laparoscopic approach. In this way, the oncologic and functional outcomes obtained can be compared to those of its open counterpart. This article describes in detail the technique of radical cystoprostatectomy and urinary diversion in the male patient conducted by our group in an attempt to improve the knowledge and spread of this always difficult procedure.

Abstract
Renal cell cancer with tumor thrombus is present in 4-15% of cases. The prognostic significance of this entity has been object of intense debate. Nowadays, it is considered, that the presence of thrombus itself does not have a negative prognostic impact on survival rates if the thrombus could be excised satisfactorily. Complete removal of renal malignant tissue is the only curative strategy for the treatment of this kind of tumors. During the last three decades, there has been steady improvements in surgical technique and preoperative care fields that have favorably modified the surgeons' ability to safely excise these tumors. In this sense, the experience provided by multiorgan, kidney-pancreas and liver procurement and transplantation techniques led the urologists reexamine their approaches to the inferior vena cava and retroperitoneum, thus they could result useful in the always challenging resection of these complex tumors with neoplasic extension into the vena cava.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) is involved in skin tumorigenesis: it promotes cell viability, induces angiogenesis and stimulates invasiveness. Dobesilate is a drug that blocks the activity of FGF. The primary objective was to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of potassium dobesilate 5% cream in the treatment of actinic keratoses. METHODS Potassium dobesilate 5% cream was applied twice daily for 16 weeks to actinic keratosis lesions in 30 patients. The lesions were evaluated clinically at an initial baseline visit, at intermediate visits, and at 16 weeks of treatment. - RESULTS The use of potassium dobesilate 5% cream for 16 weeks induced complete regression in 70% of evaluated actinic keratoses, corresponding to grade I, II and III clinical variants, and a partial response (at least 75% reduction of lesions) in 20% of the cases. CONCLUSION Our preliminary trial shows that potassium dobesilate exerts anti-tumorigenic effects and may play a useful role in the chemoprevention of skin cancers.

Abstract
It has been reported that the addition of serum to embryo culture media alters gene expression and triggers the development of large offspring syndrome. The objectives of this study were to determine gene expression levels in embryos cultured in the absence or presence of 5% calf serum and in vivo-derived (IVD) embryos and to determine the effects of serum on the length of elongated embryos. Abattoir-derived oocytes were obtained from a commercial provider and fertilized at 24 h of maturation with semen from a bull previously used for IVF. At 18 h post-insemination (hpi), embryos were denuded and groups of 15 presumptive zygotes were cultured in 30-μL drops of modified SOF medium with amino acids and 6 mg mL–1 of BSA (mSOFaa). At 72 hpi, cleavage rate was assessed and embryos were randomly allocated into 2 treatments: mSOFaa without and with 5% calf serum. Embryos were then cultured to 168 hpi and blastocyst rates were assessed and recorded. Blastocysts (n = 5 to 10) from each treatment were transferred into synchronized recipients, and Day 14 embryos were recovered 7 days post-transfer. Embryos were photographed, measured, and immediately stored at –80°C in a minimal volume of PBS + 0.1% polyvinyl alcohol. Messenger RNA was isolated using a Dynabeads mRNA Direct Kit™ (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), and reverse transcription was performed using an iScript™ cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., CA). Quantitative PCR was performed to determine the transcript abundance for COX6A, IFNT1a, PLAC8, IGF2R, and GAPDH for each sample. The GAPDH was used as a reference gene, and gene expression was calculated as a ratio of expression levels between each gene of interest and GAPDH. Expression levels for each gene were determined from standard curves generated by serial dilutions of PCR amplicons starting with 0.4 pg/reaction. Blastocyst development rates were higher in embryos cultured with serum compared with the nonserum treatment (14.9 and 7.4% respectively; chi-square, P < 0.001). Lengths of elongated embryos from the serum (3395.3 ± 414.7 μm) and nonserum (2784 ± 741.8 μm) culture treatments differed from the IVD (6297.7 ± 677.2 μm) treatment (mean ± SE; ANOVA, P < 0.0052). There were no differences in the mean expression levels for COX6A, IFNT1a, PLAC8, and IGF2R across treatment groups, but in the serum treatment, 3 out 11 overexpressed IFNT1a, 4 out of 11 overexpressed IGF2R, and 2 out of 11 overexpressed PLAC8, defined as being 2 standard deviations above the mean of the IVD treatment for each respective gene. In the in vitro-produced nonserum and IVD treatments, overexpression by this definition was not observed. Although mean expression levels were not affected by culture with serum under these conditions, very high expression of IFNT1a, IGF2R, and PLAC8 was observed in some embryos cultured with serum, but not in embryos cultured without serum or IVD embryos.

Abstract
Osteoma cutis is a rare lesion that consists of the presence of bone tissue within the dermis and/or hypodermis. It may be classified as primary osteoma cutis, when bone tissue develops in the skin without any pre-existing lesion and secondary osteoma cutis, which is more frequent and occurs when osseous tissue develops on a pre-existing lesion. We present a case of primary plaque-like osteoma cutis involving the scalp, left forehead and left cheek, which appeared in an adult male. Histopathological study showed several islands of mature osseous tissue involving the full thickness of the dermis. In some areas, there was also transepidermal elimination of bone spicules. We review the literature about previously reported similar cases.

Abstract
Apocrine hidradenoma is a benign adnexal neoplasm with apocrine differentiation. The neoplasm is composed of four different types of epithelial cells, including pale or clear cells, polygonal cells, mucinous cells and squamous cells, with variable proportions of them from case to case. In most examples of this neoplasm, clear or the polygonal cells are predominant, whereas the other types of neoplastic cells are less abundant. We report two cases of apocrine hidradenoma mostly composed of squamous cells. Histopathologic examination showed that the neoplasms were composed of both solid and cystic areas. The solid aggregations of neoplastic cells were composed of a peripheral layer of basaloid polygonal cells, whereas squamous cells forming the bulk of the aggregations. These squamous cells showed large eosinophilic cytoplasm and vesicular nuclei with prominent nucleoli. In one case, small foci of mucinous cells could also be seen in some aggregations of neoplastic cells, mostly around ductal structures. In both the cases, some of the tubular structures lined by epithelial cells showed evidence of decapitation secretion in their luminal border. The neoplastic stroma consisted of sclerotic collagen bundles when compared with adjacent normal dermis, and artefactual clefts separated the neoplasms from the surrounding tissue. The rare cases described in this report are exceptional because most of the neoplastic cells showed squamous appearance and for that reason we think that squamous cell apocrine hidradenoma is the most appropriate name for these neoplasms.
