Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a disorder characterized by a sudden attack of severe anterograde amnesia, where patients are unable to learn and recall novel information during the event. Although fi rst described at least 60 years ago, the etiology and pathophysiology of TGA remain unclear and have been a matter of debate among clinicians and researchers. In this paper, we present a case of...

TOPIC: Chest Infections TYPE: Medical Student/Resident Case Reports INTRODUCTION: Subacute invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is a locally subacute form of chronic (CPA) which typically involves the upper lobes individuals with pre-existing lung disease or immunodeficiency. Patients fibrocystic sarcoidosis are prone to CPA. We described case complicated CPA was diagnosed concomitantly. CASE PRESE...

This paper deals with a numerical and experimental study of ultrasound induced cavitation. On the basis of a computational analysis of Gilmore’s equation for the individual bubble dynamics, a slight decrease in the pressure radiated by a single bubble immediately before reaching the transient cavitation regime is predicted. Experiments presented in this paper confirm this observation. Therefore...

BACKGROUND Jawbone cavitations (JC) are hollow dead spaces in jawbones with dying or dead bone marrow. These areas are defined as fatty degenerative osteonecrosis of the jawbone or neuralgia-inducing cavitational osteonecrosis and may produce facial pain. These afflictions have been linked to the immune system and chronic illnesses. Surgical debridement of JC is reported to lead to an improveme...

Background: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common types, frequently metastasizing into lungs. Treatment options have been vastly improved over last years. With increasing use targeted therapies, novel and rare adverse effects can be seen. Case Presentation: A 43-year-old woman presented in our oncology department with chest pain dyspnea. The patient was diagnosed colorectal seven years ea...

Background: The transient tachypnea is a common respiratory problem in the neonate. One of the significant issues in pathophysiology of this disorder is the delayed reabsorption of the fluid by the neonate’s lungs and the effusion of fluid in the lungs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of restrictive fluid management in transient tachypnea of the neonate. Methods: The presen...

In the conversion of fuel in the Tehran Research Reactor core from Highly- Enriched Uraniutn to Low-Enriched Uranium fuel neutronics analysis, thermal hydraulic calculations and kinetic performance of the core have to be studied. In this study, static and dynamic core performance for HEU and LEU fuels were investigated. In static conditions, two groups of neutron flux distributions in axia...

this paper presents a method for diagnosis of eccentricity fault in a switched-reluctance motor (srm) during offline and standstill modes. in this method, the fault signature is differential induced voltage (div) achieved by injecting diagnostic pulses to the motor windings. it will be demonstrated by means of results that there is a correlation between differential induced voltage and eccentri...

conclusions the pattern of longitudinally increased liver stiffness measurements efficiently supported clinical decisions for individualized management strategies. repeated transient elastography in real-life clinical practice appears to have a practical role in monitoring liver transplanted patients. background liver transplanted patients need close surveillance for early signs of graft diseas...

introduction: the main purpose of this study was to compare transient ischemic dilation (tid) ratios in spect-low dose ct and spect myocardial perfusion imaging (mpi) by application of different quantitative programs and quantify the possible shift in the upper normal limits of tid ratio in the spect-ct mpi. methods: 149 patients with low pre-test probability for coronary artery disease (cad),...
