Disease relevance of cesium

  • When Cs(+) was applied to an isolated ganglion where the pyloric rhythm had been activated only by DA, the cycle period was consistently increased by 13.5%, with no other strong changes in rhythm parameters [1].
  • Higher total dose (P=0.009), BRT dose (P=0.029), BRT dose rate (P=0.004), EBRT fraction size (P=0.007), the use of Cs BRT (P=0.001) and lower parity (P=0.041) were correlated with increased risk of acute bladder toxicity in univariate test [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of cesium

  • Higher NTD, XRT fraction dose, BRT dose rate, Cs BRT, two-field XRT technique, short overall radiotherapy time, and older age were correlated with increased late-event risk in univariate analysis [5].
