Background and Objectives: There are a few studies on histopathologic type of oral lesions especially from Iran. The aim of this study was to survey the oral lesions in Babol, northern Iran. Methods: The histopathology records were retrospectively reviewed for all lesions of oral cavity and jaws, during the years 1990 to 2009. The data were collected from the archive of pathology and analyz...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to compare the histopathologic reaction of four suturing materials: silk, polyvinylidene fluoride (pvdf), polyglycolic acid, and catgut in the oral mucosa of albino rabbits. materials and methods: the twenty-one male mature albino rabbits which were used in this study were randomly divided into three groups of seven each. silk, pvdf, polyglycolic acid...

in order to show the type and severity of gross and histopathologic lesions induce by vaccinal strain (serotype a1) of pateurella mulocida, ten four-week-old spf chickens were inoculated intramuscularly with 75 cfu of ( 0.5 ml of 10-7 dilution) bacterium. all birds died in less than 16 hours. no prominent gross lesions were observed in different organs. in microscopic examination, the most comm...

OBJECTIVE The prostacyclin analog, beraprost sodium (BPS), was examined for its potential to improve the symptoms of obesity-type diabetes (i.e., hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidemia, histopathologic changes, and diabetic complications). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Obese Zucker rats, an experimental model of genetic obesity-induced type 2 diabetes, were repeatedly administered BPS at...

BACKGROUND Historically, female breast carcinoma has been viewed as an etiologically homogeneous disease associated with rapidly increasing incidence rates until age 50 years, followed by a slower rate of increase among older women. More recent studies, however, have shown distinct age incidence patterns for female breast cancer when stratified by estrogen receptor (ER) expression and/or histop...

AIM To investigate the histopathologic changes in native bladder and gastrointestinal segment, the relation between histopathologic changes, type of operation and the period passed over operation in patients with bladder augmentation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty consecutive patients were enrolled in this study. Histopathologic evaluation of the cystoscopic mucosal biopsies from native bladde...

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) has been extensively reported from Japan, Europe, and the United States. Whereas the descriptions of AIP from Japan have predominantly been based on the presence of a distinct clinical phenotype, reports from Europe and the United States describe at least 2 histopathologic patterns in patients' condition currently diagnosed as AIP, viz, lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing...

CONTEXT Tissue microarray (TMA) is an array-based technology allowing the examination of hundreds of tissue samples on a single slide. To handle, exchange, and disseminate TMA data, we need standard representations of the methods used, of the data generated, and of the clinical and histopathologic information related to TMA data analysis. OBJECTIVE To create a comprehensive data model with fl...
