breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in female, after lung cancer. angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis; therefore, antiangiogenesis strategies for treatment of cancer are currently an issue of interest. the role of vascular endothelial growth factor that assumed to be most potent angiogenesis factor is ambiguous in breast cancer. this study descri...

Dec 2009 were studied. Patients with vascular injuries caused by causes other than tear gas shells were excluded from the study. Results: All patients were treated with reverse saphenous vein graft as segmental loss was less than 2.5 cm. Wound infection was the most common complication, followed by graft occlu-sion. Amputation rate was 16.66%. Associated nerve injury occurred in 44.44% ...

Aim Pleistocene erratic boulders are rocks that were relocated by glaciers during the Ice Ages. When their geology differs from of landscape surrounds them, form habitat islands for regionally rare, edaphically specialised, rock-dwelling cryptogams (bryophytes, ferns and lichens). Such constitute terrestrial model systems exploring island biogeographic predictions effect environmental variables...

Introduction: Percutaneously inserted double-lumen central venous hemodialysis catheters provide the nephrologist with an excellent temporary access for an immediate hemodialysis treatment and preserve the peripheral veins for the future creation of a permanent arteriovenous vascular access. Unfortunately catheterrelated infections are usually common. In this study, the impact of intra luminal ...

anatomical vascular variations are rare causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. an aberrant medial artery is the most common vascular variation, while an aberrant radial artery causing carpal tunnel syndrome is even more rare, with an incidence ranging less than 3%. this article reports a patient with compression of the median nerve at the carpal tunnel by an aberrant superficial branch of the radial...

conclusion the minimum concentration of triolein emulsion required to increase vascular permeability adequately with minimal brain edema in a cat model was 0.5%. results the lesion hemispheres showed mild hyperintensity due to edema on t2-weighted images, and contrast enhancement on post-contrast t1-weighted images in cats of group 1-5. cers showed statistically significant differences between ...

conclusion the involved liver with hht typically shows vascular shunting and biliary diseases. also, arteriovenous shunts may be vulnerable to biliary diseases. results (i) three types of shunting were found in the livers, including arteriovenous (hepatic artery to hepatic vein) in 6 cases, arterioportal (hepatic artery to portal vein) in 2 cases, and portal venous (portal vein to hepatic vein)...

previous studies have demonstrated that vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) can trigger angiogenesis as well as inflammation through binding to its membranous receptor-1 on endothelial and inflammatory cells. we aimed to correlate the circulatory number of cells expressing such receptor as well as the serum level of vegf and the soluble form of its receptor-1 (svegfr1) to the severity of ...

objective(s): progestrone is a prequisite for pre-implantation angiogenesis and induce decidual angiogenesis. it is unknown the effect of progestrone administration on the endometrium of hyperstimulated mice at pre-implantation time. material and methods: adult female nmri mice were divided in three groups [control group, ovarian stimulated group and progestrone treated mice after ovarian stimu...
