Trial drug helps children with deadly neuroblastoma

In a study of 226 children, Yu found that combining the antibody with other immune therapies cuts the risk of relapse by 20%.(…) Two years after getting the new therapy, 66% of kids were relapse-free, compared to 46% of kids randomly assigned to receive a standard therapy called retinoic acid, according to a study released Thursday, in advance of the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, which begins in two weeks in Orlando.”

Thoughts on When a Client Refuses or Reduces Payment

d’accordo al 100% :-)

Formaldehyde Tied to Blood, Lymphatic Cancers

Oh, fantastico: “La formaldeide, insieme all’urea, è impiegata come vernice collante di pannelli in legno di truciolato, nobilitato o Medium-density fibreboard, è contenuta nei pannelli fonoassorbenti dei controsoffitti, nelle pareti divisorie degli uffici open space. Tende a distaccarsi negli anni e a volatilizzarsi nell’ambiente circostante.” :-/

Do what you love, the rest comes

"At the time I thought of it as a good way to make money until something better came along. And then I realized that for me there is nothing better. Why look for something better when what I love is reading, researching, deconstructing, learning and writing. Translation has it all. Though some texts can be boring, the translation process is never boring for me."
(Sarah Vilece, Translation has it all)
