Hydroxyapatite coatings have been used on metallic substrates in a variety of applications, including modifying the surface of human implants, bone osseointegration and biological fixation. In this paper, the effects of various kinds of metallic substrate on clinical and pathological results of in vivo tests are presented. Four kinds of endodontic implants i.e, stainless steel, cobalt base all...

OBJECTIVES Since parametrial involvement is believed to be a crucial factor in the management of cervical cancer, our study was designed to investigate the clinical and pathological features which predicted parametrial involvement in patients with clinical early-stage cervical cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included patients with clinical early-stage cervical cancer who underwent radi...

Objective: The most important predictive parameter for the biological behavior of urothelial carcinomas except depth of invasion is the histological grade of the tumor. However, crucial discordances arise between pathologists because of subjectivity in histological grading schemes and these discordances cause difficulties especially in lowgrade tumors. The number of studies aiming to predict th...

The association between Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) and clinical pathological characteristics, as well as the clinical outcomes of both neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapies in breast cancer, remain largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the biological role and clinical significance of GOLPH3 in breast cancer. We found that GOLPH3 expression in tumor tissue was higher than that i...

sulfur mustard has been employed in chemical warfare in certain regions including iran. the short and long term biological effects of sulfur mustard contamination have been studied in both basic and clinical aspects. sulfur mustard has been shown to induce a vast array of pathological effects in affected persons. in addition to skin, lung, eyes and gastrointestinal disturbances, sulfur mustard ...

splendid atchievement, than he who invents a dazzling theory." But we are, at the same time, to bear in mind, that the greatest theorists have, generally speaking, been the most accurate observers. We have only to take Cullen and Darwin, in our own country, for an exemplification of this remark. Chemistry has advanced more rapidly than medicine; and the reason of this, Dr. B. thinks, is because...

Background: Pancreatic tumor disease often has clinical symptoms ambiguously which is leading to late detection and poor prognosis. Currently, there are many imaging methods use for the early detection, diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with strength a high-frequency probe, approaching directly pancreas improving tumor, especially small lesions < 2 cm. This study wa...
