background & objectives: tumor diathesis (td) is defined as granular proteinaceous precipitates on slide surface of cytologic smears. it is found in the background of smears of invasive carcinoma but not in all cases. the aim of present study was to determine the prevalence of td in cervicovaginal smears from patients with uterine cervix carcinoma. methods: cytological smears and histologi...

We define the differential operator ∂ ∂z on infinitely differentiable functions (also called smooth or C∞ functions) on some open set in C by ∂ ∂z = 1 2 ( ∂ ∂x + i ∂ ∂y ). A quick calculation shows that ∂ ∂z obeys the product rule. Recall that a function f is holomorphic if and only if ∂ ∂z (f) = 0. A function is biholomorphic, or an analytic isomorphism, if it is holomorphic and has holomorphi...

OBJECTIVE To differentiate the effect of gestation on the mode of delivery by analysing the difference in the mode of induction, length of labour and the difference in parity or Bishop score and their effect on the mode of delivery of postdates women. STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional observational study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY PAEC General Hospital, Islamabad, from July 2006 to July 2008...

Background/Aim: Due to the increasing cesarean rates globally, new methods for supporting vaginal delivery and induction of successful are still being developed. We aimed obtain an easy-to-use method that can predict effectiveness cervical ripening agents before labor induction. So, we presented effects on by measuring thickness cervix length/thickness ratio ultrasonographically. Methods: In th...

We investigate a DNA model that takes into account stacking interactions with neighbors up to three bases away. The model is a generalization of the well-known Peyrard-Bishop (PB) model and is motivated by studies that suggest that nearest-neighbor models for base-pair interaction in a DNA chain might not be enough to capture the mechanism and dynamics of DNA base-pair opening. We study station...

Creation of a scale analogous to the Bishop's (BS) based on transvaginal ultrasound. Assessment reproducibility and repeatability individual parameters correlation with corresponding axes BS. 116 patients in third trimester pregnancy had ultrasound examination assessment five selected BS (vaginal-cervical angle [VCA], dilatation assessed by 3D [DL], progression [AoP], strain elastography softwa...
