BACKGROUND Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) usually occur in sun-exposed areas. However, they may also occur-albeit infrequently-in unusual locations, such as the nipple-areola complex. METHODS Using the PubMed database, an extensive literature search was performed for the following keywords: areola, basal cell carcinoma, and nipple. Papers and references cited in those papers were reviewed to ac...

Background: Appropriate hydration is fundamental in preventing nipple-areola skin barrier damage and cracking nipples. Methods: Nipple-areola complex skin hydration status with contemporary macro photography (x100) was evaluated at 36 ± 6 postpartum hours in breastfeeding women using non-invasive bioengineering methods. Results: Macro photography was found to be effective in describing both str...

OBJECTIVE To investigate factors associated with discontinuation of exclusive breastfeeding in the first month of lactation, in the city of Feira de Santana, Brazil. METHODS Cohort study with follow-up of 1,309 mother-child pairs selected from all maternities in the municipality. Data were collected in hospital and in home visits during the first month of life. Logistic regression analysis wa...

A finite element analysis was conducted to determine the effect of moisture diffusion and hygroscopic swelling in rice. A parallel simple stochastic modeling was performed to predict the number of grains cracked as a result of moisture absorption and hygroscopic swelling. Rice grains were soaked in thermally (25C) controlled water and then tested for compressive stress. The destructive compress...

Middle-gate is located in Hasankeyf, Batman dating back to 1800 BC and is one of the important historical structures in Turkey. The ancient structure has suffered major structural cracks due to aging as well as lateral pressure of a cracked rock which is predicted to be about 100 tons. The existing support system was found to be inadequate to support the load especially after a recent rock fall...

The work involves develops attended by a numerical execution of the eXtend Finite Element Method premises a measurement by the fracture process cracked so many cracked plates an application will be processed for the calculation of the stress intensity factor SIF. In the first we give in statically part the distribution of stress, displacement field and strain of composite plate in two cases unc...

Using the finite element analyses, this paper discusses the effects of temperature-dependent material properties on the stress and temperature fields in a cracked metal plate under the electric current load. The practical and complicated results are obtained when the temperature-dependent material properties are adopted in the analysis. If the simplified (temperature-independent) material prope...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this systematic review was to present the best available evidence related to the management of nipple pain, post childbirth in breast-feeding women. The specific objective of the review was to determine the effectiveness of interventions used by and for breast-feeding women to prevent and/or reduce nipple pain and trauma. SELECTION CRITERIA The review considered all...
