“Giants in a Microcosm”
On examination of a breast mass surgically excised in a 69-years-old woman, a pure invasive micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) was diagnosed (Figure 1). At close examination, intensely eosinophilic syncytial-multinucleated giant cells (CD68+) percolating the stromal bands were identified (Figure 1). The breast carcinoma illustrated here shows therefore a combination of 2 rarities, namely, an invasi...
متن کاملMagnetic nanobeads: Synthesis and application in biomedicine
Nanobiotechnology appears to be an emerging science which leads to new developments in the field of medicine. Importance of the magnetic nanomaterials in biomedical science cannot be overlooked. The most commonly used chemical methods to synthesize drugable magnetic nanobeads are co-precipitation, thermal decomposition and microemulsion. However monodispersion, selection of an appropriate coati...
متن کاملMicrocosm Study
Abbott (1966) described microcosms as miniaturized ecosystems. Among the oldest and most specialized examples of the microcosm technique were bioassay systems, such as that found in the standard BOD determination. Abbott also noted that, due to the unpredictability and complexity of natural systems, in situ experiment results were often vague and inconclusive, and many researchers had successfu...
متن کاملSemantic Integration in Biomedicine
In 1986, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) initiated a terminology integration project – the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) – as “an effort to overcome two significant barriers to effective retrieval of machine-readable information”: the variety of names used to express the same concept and the absence of a standard format for distributing terminologies. By integrating more than 60...
متن کاملQuestion answering in biomedicine
The recent developments in Question Answering have kept with open-domain questions and collections, sometimes argued as being more difficult than narrow domain-focused questions and corpora. The biomedical field is indeed a specialized domain; however, its scope is fairly broad, so that considering a biomedical QA task is not necessarily such a simplification over open-domain QA as represented ...
