A case of pleomorphic leiomyoma in Bartholin gland's area in a 26-year-old woman is reported. After diagnostic treatment, primary excision was done. A large, solid tumor 10 x 7.5 cm was extirpated. The tumor showed locally invasive behavior, which suggested a malignant tumor of Bartholin gland, because of it's localization and outlook. Pathohistological examination and immunohistochemical react...

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is conducting a research program to investigate the crash compatibility of passenger cars, light trucks and vans (LTV’s) in vehicle-to-vehicle collisions. NHTSA has conducted a series of eight full-scale vehicle-to-vehicle crash tests to evaluate vehicle compatibility issues. Tests were conducted using four bullet vehicles representing ...

PURPOSE To investigate the clinical relevance of the recently characterized human oncoprotein cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) in human breast cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN CIP2A expression (mRNA and protein) was measured in three different sets of human mammary tumors and compared with clinicopathologic variables. The functional role of CIP2A in breast cancer cells was eva...

Baló's concentric sclerosis is a rare atypical form of multiple sclerosis characterized by striking concentric demyelination patterns. We propose a robust mathematical model for Baló's sclerosis, sharing common molecular and cellular mechanisms with multiple sclerosis. A reconsideration of the analogies between Baló's sclerosis and the Liesegang periodic precipitation phenomenon led us to propo...

Recent studies about solid tumors demonstrated that tumor microenvironment has an important role in tumor progression, aggressivity, and metastasis process, in addition to genetic aberrations and molecular alterations of cancer cells. Therefore, the crosstalks between cancerous and noncancerous cells and metabolic changes in tumor microenvironment cause significant detrimental effects. The purp...

Companies facing financial crises tend to manipulate reported earnings in unfavorable markets. Earnings management is an effort manage by managers meet the expected profit level obtain personal gain. The Covid-19 pandemic has caused government issue various tax incentives that individuals and companies can utilize. Under these conditions, as internal party its expectations. This study examines ...

Engagement of cell surface adhesion receptors with extracellular constituents and with cellular counter-receptors is crucial for the extravasation of blood-borne neoplastic cells and their seeding at distant sites; however, the early events of tumor dissemination-ie, the intravasation step(s)-have been largely neglected. A role for the alpha4beta7 integrin was hypothesized to explain the high l...

The influence of Heterodera glycines (soybean cyst nematode) on the interspecific and intraspecific competition associated with Glycine max (soybean) and Chenopodium album (common lambsquarters) was studied in 1988 and 1989 in three de Wit replacement series experiments in growth chambers and microplots. Glycine max was grown alone (1 plant/experimental unit), in intraspecific competition (2 pl...
