Vol. 13, April-June, 2014 Annals of African Medicine with the wall of a hollow viscous, the mounting pressure exerted by the surrounding inflammatory reaction may force it to penetrate the wall of the hollow viscous and into its lumen. The standard investigation for confirmation of diagnosis is CECT of the abdomen. The presence of a spongiform mass in the peritoneal cavity on CECT imaging is ch...

These investigations were undertaken to determine if there was any corelation between the degree of granulation of the renal juxtaglomerular apparatus ( ]GA ) cells and changes in systematic blood pressure induced by hypotensive drugs. The hypotensive agents studied included dibenamine, chlorisondamine, alkavervir and hydralazine. Each dose was studied on a group of six albino rats or rabbits a...

Arrested pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus is a normal anatomical variant. The aim of this report is to define cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) characteristics of arrested pneumatization of sphenoid sinus in an effort to help differentiate it from invasive or lytic skull base lesions. Two cases are presented with incidental findings. Both studies, acquired for other diagnostic purposes, ...

We report a patient aged 29 with no history notables. The disease onset was in two months made by symptoms of epigastric pain, constipation and abdominal bloating. Clinical examination found a distended abdomen with dullness in the blanks. An ultrasound was done has objectified the presence of ascites associated with peritoneal granulations. Laparoscopy showed a massive infiltration of the peri...

In this paper, the concept of a granulation order is proposed in an information system. The converse approximation of a target concept under a granulation order is defined and some of its important properties are obtained, which can be used to characterize the structure of a set approximation. For a subset of the universe in an information system, its converge degree is monotonously increasing ...

In this talk we introduce our recent results of global 1D MHD simulations for the acceleration of solar and stellar winds. We impose transverse photospheric motions corresponding to the granulations, which generate outgoing Alfvén waves. The Alfvén waves effectively dissipate by 3-wave coupling and direct mode conversion to compressive waves in density-stratified atmosphere. We show that the co...

Set approximation is a kernel concept in rough set theory. In this paper, by introducing a notion of granulation order, positive approximation of a target set under a granulation order is defined in an incomplete information system and its some useful properties are investigated. Unlike classical rough set theory, this approximation deals with how to describe the structure of a rough set in inc...

Expression of substance-P in human neurons of trigeminal ganglia has been investigated by immunohistochemistry and morphometry. These neurons constituted 12.8% to 32.6% of the total neuronal population in the trigeminal ganglia. Substance-P positive granulations were concentrated around the nucleus, distributed focally in neuroplasm or dispersed over the neuroplasm. Morphometric analysis has in...

Résumé Nous rapportons le cas d’une primigeste de 25ans dont la grossesse a été compliquée, dès le premier trimestre, d’une hypertension intracrânienne (HTIC) idiopathique avec retentissement visuel, ayant bénéficiée d’un shunt lombo-péritonéal sans conséquences obstétricales. L’objectif de ce travail est de préciser les caractéristiques de cette entité pathologique rare dont le mécanisme physi...

Congenital cholesteatoma(CC) accounts for 25% of all cholesteatomas[1] most common site being middle ear. We report an extremely rare case of congenital cholesteatoma isolated to the mastoid process, with no middle ear involvement. An 18 year old male presented with ear ache and minimal discharge for 4 months. On examination, external auditory canal was found narrowed with granulations and bony...
