Achondroplasia is a disorder of bone growth that causes the most common type of dwarfism. It belongs to a group of disorders called chondrodystrophies or osteochondrodysplasias. It is a congenital genetic disorder resulting in rhizomedic dwarfism and is the most common skeletal dysplasia. This case report highlights the oral manifestation of a 3 year old male patient with achondroplasia.

This article examines the growth in research on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which has expanded dramatically since its introduction in 1980. There are now over 350 articles indexed in Medline each year that refer to PTSD in their title. PTSD accounted for 16% of anxiety disorder research in the early 1980s, growing to one third by 2005.

discussion: establishing the etiology, using the evidence–based strategies to improve hirsutism, and treating the underlying disorder, are essential for proper management of women with hirsutism. case presentation: the case was a 17-year-old female with severe hirsutism, oligomenorrhea, and obesity. she was evaluated to identify the etiology and diagnosed as a case of polycystic ovarian syndrom...

Circle hairs (CHs) represent a body hair growth disorder which is characterized by asymptomatic presence of hairs in typical circular or spiraliform arrangement. It is not associated with follicular or inflammatory abnormalities. CHs are rarely reported, probably underestimated, as medical consultation for CH only is rare in practice. It needs to be differentiated from rolled hairs, which is a ...

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) cloning techniques for Nordmann fir Christmas tree production have been pursued and refined in Denmark, three SE clonal trials with 201 clones from seeds of 27 trees seedlings bulk harvest Georgia, Caucasus, were established 2014 to 2015. This study was the first evaluate genetic performance these different sites. In addition, (zygotic) normal field compared this stud...

Cockayne syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of childhood characterized by cachectic dwarfism with senile-like appearance, mental retardation, photosensitive dermatitis, loss of adipose tissue, pigmentary degeneration of retina, microcephaly, deafness, skeletal and neurologic abnormalities. We describe here an 18 year old boy with Cockayne syndrome who had, in addition to the typica...

We present results from extensive Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of domain growth in ferromagnets and binary mixtures with quenched disorder. These are modeled by the random-bond Ising model and the dilute Ising model with either nonconserved (Glauber) spin-flip kinetics or conserved (Kawasaki) spin-exchange kinetics. In all cases, our MC results are consistent with power-law growth with an expon...

objective: the purpose of the present study was to compare response inhibition and cognitive appraisal in clients with acute stress disorder, clients with posttraumatic stress disorder, and normal individuals . method:  this  was a comparative study. the sample consisted of 40 clients with acute stress disorder, 40 patients with posttraumatic stress disorder, and 40 normal individuals from maza...

Low temperature photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation measurements have been performed in a set of InGaAs/GaAs samples with different indium molar fraction, well width, growth conditions and post-growth treatment. This has allowed to change in a controlled way the degree and source of disorder in the samples, thus resulting in an excitonic absorption linewidth varying between 1 and...

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a form of growth and development disorder that causes brain function not to work normally, affecting development, communication skills, language interaction skills. Parenting styles related the receptive in children with ASD are important considering mother closest caregiver child. This study aims determine relationship between parenting style at Special Needs ...
