Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery ¦ Volume 10 ¦ Issue 1 ¦ January‐March 2017 60 Subungual SCC is a low‐grade malignant tumour with >150 cases reported in literature. It may arise from nail bed, matrix, groove or nail folds.[2] It usually affects elderly males with thumb being the most common site of involvement.[3] Early clinical manifestations are paronychia, onychomycosis, onycholysi...

In this study, Nd-doped cobalt oxide (Nd-Co3O4) nanoparticles were prepared by a combustion synthesis procedure using Co(acac)3 complex. The nanoparticles were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Then, the effect of Nd-Co3O4 ...

Tunable subpicosecond pulses are generated by synchronously pumping a dye laser with the pulse-compressed and frequency-doubled output of an acousto-optically mode-locked cw Nd:YAG laser. The pulses are amplified at a repetition rate of 1 kHz, using the frequency-doubled output of a cavity-dumped, acousto-optically mode-locked, Qswitched, cw pumped Nd:YAG laser. Amplified transform-limited puls...

Background: Anabolic-androgenic steroids are used at high doses by athletes for improving athletic ability, physical appearance and muscle mass. Unfortunately, the abuse of these agents has significantly increased. It has been established that exercise and high doses of anabolic-androgenic steroids may influence the hypothalamic- pituitary-testis axis, which can in turn affect testicular apopto...

nipple discharge (nd) can be the earliest presenting symptom of breast cancer. we hereby present two cases of breast cancer with no palpable mass manifesting as isolated nd, which was whitish in color. in both cases, cytology of the discharge revealed highly pleomorphic cells indicating a high grade malignancy. mammography showed diffuse, extensive microcalcifications. simple mastectomy with ax...
