open-channel junctions have a broad application in civil and environmental engineering. formation of a low-pressure zone with recirculating flow (high sedimentation) accompanied by a high-velocity zone (high erosion) is the most characteristic feature of flow in junctions. a large number of researches have been performed to study the complexity of the flow in junctions in open-channel flows. in...

background: one million people are diagnosed with gastric cancer (gc) annually and the prognosis for patients with advanced gc or gastroesophageal junction (gej) cancer is usually poor with a median survival time of 8 to 10 months. recent reports have identified that anti her2 target therapy improved the median survival rate in patients with her2 positive gc; but a wide range of her2 overexpres...

mast cells are related to certain gastrointestinal complaints. mast cell density has not been studied in cardio-esophageal region to the best of our knowledge. in this study we wanted to obtain an estimate of mast cell density in this region and compare it with mast cell density in antrum. from april 2007 till march 2010, we chose children (<14 years old) who underwent upper endoscopy and from ...

primary colorectal lymphoma (pcl) is a rare condition that accounts for a small percentage of all gastrointestinal (gi) malignancies. there are several reports in the literature regarding the most common features of pcl. however, primary lymphoma in the rectosigmoid junction has been rarely reported. our case was a 67-year-old male who presented with non-specific symptoms of bowel obstruction w...
