    tolerability and survival were analyzed and compared between regimens. Survivals were calculated by using the Kaplan–Meier method, and compared by the log-rank test. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 135 of 980.... Conclusions: Carboplatin CCRT provided acceptable efficacy and tolerability profiles in real-world practice. Carboplatin should be considered as an alternative regimen, particularly in cisplatin-ineligible patients with LA-NPC treated with CCRT.

    By contrast with high-income countries, Staphylococcus aureus disease ranks low on the public-health agenda in low-income countries. We undertook a literature review of S aureus disease in resource-limited countries in south and east Asia, and found... that its neglected status as a developing world pathogen does not equate with low rates of disease. The incidence of the disease seems to be highest in neonates, its range of clinical manifestations is as broad as that seen in other settings
