Granular cell tumor (GCT) also known as Abrikossoff's tumor is a benign neoplasm that is usually seen in the fourth to sixth decades of life with slight female preponderance. It is most frequently seen in the oral cavity, skin, and subcutaneous tissue. Gastrointestinal tract involvement is uncommon, in which esophagus is the most commonly affected site. There are case reports of GCT in stomach,...

BACKGROUND Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a benign soft tissue tumor of neural origin and is characterized by eosinophilic granular cells showing positivity for neuronal markers. Herein, we report the first case of primary intraosseous GCT arising in the maxilla of an adolescent girl. METHODS AND RESULTS A 16-year-old female patient presented with palatal swelling. Radiographic findings reveale...

Gait Asymmetry during Running Was Proven to Be Inefficient, Uneconomical and a Possible Risk Factor for injury. Research has either been conducted in laboratory settings or only discontinuous data were collected. Hence, the present study evaluated gait asymmetries in elite runners by quantifying the differences between ground contact times (GCT) of the right and left foot and their continuous c...

Granulosa cell tumors (GCT) of the ovary appear spontaneously at 4-6 weeks of age in SWR/J and in SWR/Bm inbred strain mice, with a maximum incidence reached by 10 weeks. Cancer was confirmed by metastasis to abdominal organs and by transplantability of primary tumors to histocompatible hosts. Results of genetic crosses showed that GCT appear in SWR X SJL F1 but not in SJL X SWR F1 nor in other...

Granulosa cell tumors (GCT) of the ovary appear sponta neously at 4-6 weeks of age in SWR/J and in SWR/Bm inbred strain mice, with a maximum incidence reached by 10 weeks. Cancer was confirmed by metastasis to abdominal organs and by transplantability of primary tumors to histocompatible hosts. Results of genetic crosses snowed that GCT appear in SWR x SJL F, but not in SJL x SWR F, nor in othe...

The initial aim of this study was to identify novel serum diagnostic markers for the human ovarian granulosa cell tumor (GCT), a tumor that represents up to 5% of all ovarian cancers. To circumvent the paucity of human tissues available for analyses, we used the Ctnnb1(tm1Mmt/+);Pten(tm1Hwu/tmiHwu);Amhr2(tm3(cre)Bhr/+) transgenic mouse model, which features the constitutive activation of CTNNB1...

BACKGROUND This study was intended to simplify the diagnostic procedure for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) through using a single plasma glucose level, after a 100 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), as the most appropriate indicator for diagnosing GDM in pregnant women with a positive 50 g, 1-hour oral glucose challenge test (GCT) in Northern Taiwan. METHODS A total of 973 native Taip...

Objective(s):miR-125b has been identified as a tumor suppressor in many tumors, but its role in giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone remains poorly understood. The current study aimed to investigate the potential role and mechanism of miR-125b in GCT. Materials and Methods:Expression levels of miR-125b in GCT tissues were determined using RT-PCR. The cell proliferation was surveyed by direct cell coun...

Aim: Results of the surgical and medical treatments giant cell tumor bone (GCT) in terms local recurrence prognostic factors associated with are evaluated this study. Material Method: Patients treated either or methods for GCT between 2011 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Gender age patients, localization tumors, existence pathological fractures, grade tumor, soft tissue expansion, resectio...

gestational diabetes mellitus (gdm) is the most common metabolic disorder during pregnancy which is associated with 3 to 4 folds of increase in the risk of maternal and fetal morbidity, if it is not diagnosed early (1). gestational diabetes occurs from 1% to 14%, and 90% of pregnancy-related diabetes has been related to gestational diabetes (2). glucose challenge test (gct) and glucose toleranc...
