INTRODUCTION Limited information is available regarding patients' indication for seeking labiaplasty of the labia minora. AIM The aim of this article is to investigate a patient's indications for seeking labiaplasty of the labia minora. METHODS This is a retrospective review of the medical records of all patients undergoing labiaplasty at our clinic over a 27-month period. MAIN OUTCOME ME...

We establish upper bounds for the spectral gap of the stochastic Ising model at low temperatures in an l × l box with boundary conditions which are not purely plus or minus; specifically, we assume the magnitude of the sum of the boundary spins over each interval of length l in the boundary is bounded by δl, where δ < 1. We show that for any such boundary condition, when the temperature is suff...

OBJECTIVE To assess clinical characteristics and expectations in well women requesting elective labial reduction surgery. DESIGN Prospective study of women attending an outpatient gynaecology clinic. SETTING General gynaecology clinic at a Central London teaching hospital. SAMPLE Women requesting labial reduction surgery and referred by their general practitioner. METHODS The labia mino...

Labia minora enlargement may constitute a cosmetic or functional problem for a woman, potentially leading to surgery. However, more rarely, the labia majora may also be problematic for women. This case describes the rare situation of a woman presenting with enlargement of both the labia minora and majora and her subsequent simultaneous surgical treatment.

It was proved by Karch and Pilarczyk that Landau solutions are asymptotically stable under any L 2 -perturbation. In our earlier work with L. Li, we have classified all ( − 1 ) -homogeneous axisymmetric no-swirl of incompressible stationary Navier-Stokes equations in three dimension which smooth on the unit sphere minus south north poles. this paper, study asymptotic stability least singular am...

UV irradiation of a mixture of an isolated tobacco mosaic virus (TMV; tomato strain L [TMV-L]) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex and the TMV-L RNA 3'-terminal region (3'-TR) resulted in cross-linking of the TMV-L 126-kDa replication protein to the TMV-L 3'-TR. Using both Escherichia coli-expressed proteins corresponding to parts of the 126-kDa protein and mutants of the 3'-TR, the interactin...
