INTRODUCTION The cyst of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a known clinical entity, but its association with knee synovitis and melon or rice bodies is not documented. CASE REPORT We report a rare case of ganglionic cyst of of the knee in association with diffuse synovitis and multiple melon or rice bodies in a 36 year old male. The case was treated arthroscopically with removal ofthe cyst ...

In this paper we introduce MELON, a new communication paradigm tailored to mobile ad hoc networks, based on novel interactions with a distributed shared message store. MELON provides removeonly, read-only, and private messages, as well as bulk message operations. The dynamic nature of MANETs is addressed with persistent messages, completely distributed message storage, and flexible communicatio...

This study aims to examine the potential reasons for the current prevalence of the fusarium wilt in the oriental melon. Twenty-seven Fusarium isolates obtained from oriental melon greenhouses in 2010-2011 were identified morphologically and by analysis of elongation factor-1 alpha gene (EF-1α) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rDNA sequences as 6 Fusarium species (8 isolates of F. oxysporum...

abstract the pythium spp. are known as the principle agents of seedling blight, damping-off and root rot of cucurbits. this study was performed for determination of pythium species involved in this diseases as well study their pathogenecity on different cucurbits. the numerous samples were taken at cultivation seasons 2006- 2007 from the fields of cucumber, tomato, egg plant, muskmelon, cucurbi...

More than 1000 herbal products have been used by diverse cultures of the world to treat hyperglycemia and among them bitter melon (Momordica charantia) is one of the most popular herbal resource. The beneficial effects of bitter melon is not limited to hypoglycaemia only, but it also ameliorates diet induced obesity, insulin resistance and exhibit cardioprotective effects. The present study att...

Arrays of up to six broadband suction cup hydrophones were placed on the forehead of two bottlenose dolphins to determine the location where the beam axis emerges and to examine how signals in the acoustic near-field relate to signals in the far-field. Four different array geometries were used; a linear one with hydrophones arranged along the midline of the forehead, and two around the front of...

A search was performed for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and short insertions-deletions (indels) in 34 melon (Cucumis melo L.) expressed sequence tag (EST) fragments between two distantly related melon genotypes, a group Inodorus 'Piel de sapo' market class breeding line T111 and the Korean accession PI 161375. In total, we studied 15 kb of melon sequence. The average frequency of SNPs ...

this research was carried out in order to investigate on the effects of packaging type and storage temperature on qualitative and quantitative characteristics of dried melon. “thashkandi” and ‘ khatoni” melon varieties؛ osmotic solutions of 0% and 10% sucrose and cabinet dryer were applied for dried melon production. dried fruits were packed with modified atmosphere (pe-pa film, 85 micron thick...
