Lymphoid hypophysit is is an apparently rare condition whi ch was initially reported as a postmortem finding in six patients [1 -6]. In these patients, death was related to the re latively rapid development of hypopituitarism. It has recently been described in four living patients [7-9]. In the previous case reported by us, visual fi elds were normal and a computed tomography (CT) scan was norm...

The 12C(12C,14O) two-proton pick-up reaction has been measured at 211.4 MeV incident energy to study the structure of states of 10Be up to excitation energies of 12 MeV. The measured partial angular distributions show pronounced oscillatory shapes, which were described by coupled-reaction-channels calculations. Spin-parity assignments could be derived from these characteristic shapes and two de...

In the structure of the title compound, C(21)H(30)BrNOS, an important inter-mediate for the preparation of liquid crystal compounds, the saturated C(12) chain shows a linear conformation while the benzene and thia-zole rings are essentially coplanar [dihedral angle = 4.5 (4)°]. The crystal packing shows no significant inter-molecular inter-actions.

Picture 1. Oral tumor and chest computed tomography of the patient. (A). Oral finding on ad mission shows upper gingival tumor with bleeding and ulceration. (B). Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest revealed multiple tumors in bilateral lung bases. (C). Oral tumor was re duced in size immediately 14 days after methotrexate withdrawal. (D). Chest CT on day 41 after withdrawal of MTX shows ...
