259 Dailey, Andrew T.Guideline update for the performance of fusion procedures for degenerative disease of the lumbar spine. Part 7: Lumbar fusion for intractable low-back pain without stenosis or spondylolisthesisEstablishing an appropriate treatment strategy for patients presenting with low-back pain, in the absence of stenosis or spondylolisthesis, remains a controversial subject. Inherent to this situation is often an inability to adequately identify the source of low-back pain to justify various treatmen...2014-01-01

263 Couldwell, William T.Fenestration of the oculomotor nerve by a duplicated posterior cerebral artery and aneurysmThe authors report a case of a posterior cerebral artery aneurysm arising from an aberrant arterial branch that was found to be splitting the oculomotor nerve. This 63-year-old man presented with headaches, and CT imaging revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage primarily within the basilar cisterns. Formal...2009-01-01
264 Capecchi, Mario R.Gene targeting. How efficient can you get?With targeting in Leishmania and Trypanosoma, there are now greater incentives to develop the technology in organisms of intermediate complexity such as Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila. The ratio of homologous to nonhomologus recombination in these organisms might prove to be greater than in m...Animals; DNA Mutational Analysis; Recombination, Genetic1990-11-08
265 Couldwell, William T.Giant pituitary tumor combined approachNishioka et al. have provided a review of 29 patients with large pituitary adenomas who underwent surgery through a simultaneous transsphenoidal and transcranial approach at their institution during a 7-year period. Large adenomas with hourglass constriction, complex lobulations, and asymmetric exte...2012-01-01
266 Dwan, JohnIgnored medical problemA physician who doesn't recommend that a patient stop smoking is hard to find. Few, however, try to help patients lose weight, even though a recent National Institutes of Health (NIH) study showed that at least 300,000 deaths each year can be attributed to being overweight, obese or severely overwei...Diet; Life Style; Therapeutic Aspects; Science of nutrition2000-03
