The influence of body mass (M(b)) on the physiology of large, adult fish is poorly understood, in part because of the logistical difficulties of studying large individuals. For the first time, this study quantified the influence of M(b) on the resting heart rate (f(H)), blood properties and organ masses of adults of a large-growing fish species, the Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). Su...

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a potentially fatal condition that presents with shortness of breath and chest pain. Although an electrocardiogram (ECG) may show changes associated PE, ST elevation mimicking myocardial infarction not common in patients acute PE.

Cardiac masses have a broad differential diagnosis, it is critical to differentiate between neoplastic non-neoplastic benign malignant neoplasms. Surgery advised in situations heart failure ...

nowadays brain tumors remain as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality and are often treatment refractory. the grading of brain tumor has an important implication in clinical management. currently, magnetic resonance spectroscopy (mrs) is an important modality in evaluating and grading brain tumors. the aim of this study is  evaluation of metabolites in the differentiation of brain tumo...

abdominal mass is one of the commonest clinical findings in children. the purpose of this study was to evaluate abdominal masses in different age groups in a referral children surgical center. we retrospectively reviewed records of 325 patients (57% boys, mean age 37.7 months) admitted to amir kabir hospital in period of 12 years for abdominal mass surgery. the 4 most common abdominal masses wa...

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Cardiac masses are an heterogeneous group very rare formations, representing a major diagnostic challenge given the difficulty often encountered in assessing their nature through imaging examinations. Magnetic Resonance (CMR) is noninvasive key tool providing anatomical, functional, and tissue characteristic information...
