Symptomatic neoplastic brachial plexopathy (NBP) is estimated to occur in about 0.4% of all patients with cancer. The aim of this review was to determine the incidence of NBP occurring in patients referred for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A retrospective review over a 5 year period revealed that a total of sixty-six MRls of brachial plexus were performed. Twenty-nine were performed for ass...

Raw buffalo milk samples from the agroindustrial zone in upper Egypt were analyzed for the presence of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. Five organochlorine pesticides namely, alachlor, dieldrin, hexachlorobenzene, lindane and methoxychlor and three organophosphorus pesticides chlorpyrifos, malathion, and parathion-methyl were detected in...

You base your MRLs for copper of 0.02 mg/kg/d for acute and intermediate exposures on a study by Pizarro et al. (1999a) who found that gastrointestinal symptoms occurred when adults were exposed to a concentration of copper ≥ 3 mg/L but that there were no increases in symptom incidence at 1 mg/L. This study, however, as were other studies by this group, was designed to address issues of safe wa...

EUROMIX organised the first of a series of workshops on the international harmonisation of the risk assessment of combined exposures to chemicals from 20‐21 October, 2016 at Imperial College London, UK. The aim of these workshops is to explore options and potential limitations in the international acceptance of approaches to the assessment of combined exposures to chemicals. This has obvious im...

The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) utilizes chemical-specific minimal risk levels (MRLs) to assist in evaluating public health risks associated with exposure to hazardous substances. During MRL derivation, uncertainty factors (UF) are used. Under current ATSDR methodology, default UFs of 10 are applied to extrapolate from a lowest-observed-adverse-effect level (LOAEL) ...

A multiresidue gas chromatographic method for the determination of six fungicides (captan, chlorthalonil, folpet, iprodione, procymidone and vinclozolin) and one acaricide (dicofol) in still and fortified wines was developed. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was chosen for the extraction of the compounds from the studied matrices and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detection was used. The ex...

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a fundamental NLP task, commonly formulated as classification over sequence of tokens. Morphologically-Rich Languages (MRLs) pose challenge to this basic formulation, the boundaries Entities do not necessarily coincide with token boundaries, rather, they respect morphological boundaries. To address NER in MRLs we then need answer two questions, namely, what are...

Drugs used in animal farms can affect the public health because of their trace in edible animal tissues. Antibiotics are an integral part of treatment in many infectious diseases. They are widely used therapeutically, as growth promoters and to prevent infection in animals (1). After systemic or intrammamry administration of antibiotics in animal , antibiotic residues (ARs) in milk can be detec...
