Besides collecting legitimate wastewater, municipal sanitary sewer systems, even when separated from storm also receive unwanted inflow and infiltration (I/I) that adversely impact their sizing, economics, operation. Although several statistical models have been proposed to quantify I/I, advanced methods intricate data requirements may be unrealistic for practitioners who need investigate I/I i...

I have read with great interest the article contributed by Major J. N. Duggan, d.o. (Oxon.), of Bombay, describing in detail the method of deep infiltration anaesthesia of the orbit. Since then I had occasion *to use this form of anaesthesia in 11 cataract operations and in 2 cases of sclero-corneal trephining operations for sub-acute glaucoma. Though this is not in itself a big record to go up...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is associated with an immunosuppressive tumor-microenvironment (TME) that supports the growth of tumors and mediates tumors enabling evasion of the immune system. Expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and loss of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I on tumor cells are methods by which tumors escape immunosurveillance. We examined immune cel...

Many different equations have been proposed to describe quantitatively one-dimensional soil water infiltration. The unknown coefficients of these characterize hydraulic properties and may be estimated from a n record, { t ∼ i , I } = 1 $\{ {\tilde t_i},{\tilde I_i}\} _{i 1}^n$ cumulative infiltration measurements using curve fitting techniques. two-term equation, ( ) S + c K s $I(t) S\sqrt c{K_...

The fatal outcome in the case described was unfortunate but was undoubtedly largely attributable to the patient's respiratory condition. The great difficulty which may be encountered in closing the duodenal stump in the presence of massive infiltration must, however, be stressed. We are indebted to Dr. A. A. Miller for valuable assistance with the pathological studies and for helpful advice. RE...

I N CHRONIC GRANULOCYTIC LEUKEMIA neurologic manifestations due to leukemic infiltration of the central nervous system occur uncommonly.’ In acute lymphoblastic leukemia, on the other hand, diffuse leukemic infiltration of the lepto-meninges is frequent and must be differentiated from neurologic involvement due to infection, hemorrhage, or drug toxicity.2 \Vhen acute myeloblastic transformation...

Background. The ocular adnexal region is the primary localization of extranodal lymphoma in 5% to 15% of all NonHodgkin lymphoma. Intraocular lymphoma of T-cell origin is extremely rare and such sites of infiltration have been rarely observed in clinical examination. Case report. We presented a 56-year-old man with iris infiltration by primary intraocular peripheral T-cell lymphoma. The patient...
