Androgen secreting adrenocortical tumours.
BACKGROUND Androgen secreting adrenocortical tumours are rare in children and the determination of their malignant potential can be difficult. OBJECTIVES To assess the presentation, histology, and clinical behaviour of these tumours. SETTING Two tertiary referral centres. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective analysis of children diagnosed with an androgen secreting adrenocortical tumour between 197...
متن کاملPolyphenols in foods are more complex than often thought.
Dietary polyphenols show a great diversity of structures, ranging from rather simple molecules (monomers and oligomers) to polymers. Higher-molecular-weight structures (with molecular weights of > 500) are usually designated as tannins, which refers to their ability to interact with proteins. Among them, condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins) are particularly important because of their wide dist...
متن کاملInsight solutions are correct more often than analytic solutions.
How accurate are insights compared to analytical solutions? In four experiments, we investigated how participants' solving strategies influenced their solution accuracies across different types of problems, including one that was linguistic, one that was visual and two that were mixed visual-linguistic. In each experiment, participants' self-judged insight solutions were, on average, more accur...
متن کاملAdditivity dominance: Additives are more potent and more often lexicalized across languages than are “subtractives”
Judgments of naturalness of foods tend to be more influenced by the process history of a food, rather than its actual constituents. Two types of processing of a “natural” food are to add something or to remove something. We report in this study, based on a large random sample of individuals from six countries (France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, UK and USA) that additives are considered defini...
متن کاملDoes Biosynthetic Silver Nanoparticles Are More Stable With Lower Toxicity than Their Synthetic Counterparts?
Control of size and shape is a challenge in nanoparticle synthesis. Synthetic and biosynthetic (both extracellular and intracellular) methods are used to prepare silver nanoparticle (SNP). In this study, the behavior of three strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was investigated in the presence of silver nitrate intra- and extracellularly. S. aureus strains biosynthesized SNPs intracell...
