<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Psoriasis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory skin disease with several clinical symptoms. has forms that resemble variety of dermatological disorders and may necessitate histological confirmation the diagnosis. The aim study was to assess proportion psoriasis among patients psoriasiform disorders.</p><p class="abstract...

Although the etiology of varicose veins remains unknown, recent studies have focused on endothelial cell integrity and function because the endothelium regulates vessel tone and synthesizes many pro- and anti-inflammatory factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the evidence involving the endothelium in the development of varicose vein disease. In addition, tissue remodeling was invest...

Background: The aim of the present study was to develop a three-dimensional (3D) collagen gel culture system for the in vitro growth and survival of buffalo preantral follicles with or without growth factors. Materials and Methods: Buffalo ovaries were collected from a local abattoir and preantral follicles were isolated through microdissection. Isolated preantral follicles were put either in c...

the geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on tm. the metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. in this paper, the metric associated with the semispray s is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with sode structure. indeed, suff...

this study was conducted on the atrioventricular node (avn) and atrioventricular bundle (avb) of fivefour-month-old ovine fetuses. the histological structure of these components was studied by routinehistological techniques and use of specific staining methods. the avn was caudally located adjacent to theroot of the aorta. it was almost spherical in shape and consisted of twisty cells. the node...

in this paper we introduce the concept of dirac structures on (hermitian) modules and vectorbundles and deduce some of their properties. among other things we prove that there is a one to onecorrespondence between the set of all dirac structures on a (hermitian) module and the group of allautomorphisms of the module. this correspondence enables us to represent dirac structures on (hermitian)mod...

background differentiating ischemic from nonischemic cardiomyopathy is important both prognostically and therapeutically, although it may be difficult clinically. objectives we aimed to determine the diagnostic power of cardiogoniometry (cgm) in the differentiation of the ischemic from the nonischemic etiology of left bundle branch block (lbbb). patients and methods we studied 37 patients with ...

a module is said to be $pi$-extending provided that every projection invariant submodule is essential in a direct summand of the module. in this paper, we focus on direct summands and indecomposable decompositions of $pi$-extending modules. to this end, we provide several counter examples including the tangent bundles of complex spheres of dimensions bigger than or equal to 5 and certain hyper ...

Background & Objectives: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a condition where excessive deposition of dense collagen fibers occurred in the connective tissue of oral mucosa. An alteration of collagen necessitates an in depth understanding of collagen in oral tissues as no breakthrough studies have been reported. Therefore the aim was to correlate the clinical, functional and histopathol...

neurite outgrowth from dorsal root ganglion (drg) explants is a method of evaluating neurotrophic activity of growth factors. when complete medium containing collagen was supplemented with nerve growth factor (ngf) drg outgrowth was observed after 18 h. in the absence of ngf and in the presence of collagen, the drg outgrowth took place after 72 h. in wells not supplemented with collagen gel in ...
