Papillomavirus DNA not detected in canine lobular orbital adenoma and normal conjunctival tissue

Detection of lobular structures in normal breast tissue

BACKGROUND Ongoing research into inflammatory conditions raises an increasing need to evaluate immune cells in histological sections in biologically relevant regions of interest (ROIs). Herein, we compare different approaches to automatically detect lobular structures in human normal breast tissue in digitized whole slide images (WSIs). This automation is required to perform objective and consi...

Absence of Human Papillomavirus in Benign and Malignant Breast Tissue

Background & Objective: Malignant breast tumors, which are one of the most important deadly cancers in women, like many other cancers, are proposed to be related to viruses etiologically. Proper management of breast carcinoma necessitates an identification of the etiological factors. Human Papillomavirus is considered to have an etiological role in breast carcinoma. We...

normal conjunctival flora in newborns and infants

purpose: to determine the normal conjunctival flora in neonates and infants. methods: conjunctival specimens were obtained from both eyes of 43 newborns delivered by cesarean section (c/s) and 53 newborns delivered by normal vaginal delivery (nvd) as well as 54 healthy infants in two maternity and pediatric hospitals. the specimens were cultured aerobically, anaerobically and for fungi. results...

Mycobacterium paratuberculosis DNA not detected in Crohn's disease tissue by fluorescent polymerase chain reaction.

The role of mycobacteria in the aetiology of Crohn's disease has been a contentious subject for many years. Mycobacterium paratuberculosis is known to cause a chronic granulomatous enteritis in animals (Johne's disease) and has been implicated as a possible infectious cause of Crohn's disease. However this fastidious organism is only rarely detected by conventional microbiological techniques. T...
