mucoceles are defi ned as chronic, cystic lesions in the paranasal sinuses. when the mucocele content becomes infected, the lesion is defi ned as mucopyocele. most mucoceles are located in the frontal and anterior ethmoid sinuses and normally they involve the frontal-ethmoid complex, expanding to the superior-medial region of the orbit, leading to ocular disorders; maxillary sinus presentation ...

Analysis of suspended sediment transport data for rivers in Yunnan and Tibet shows that monsoon fl ows control effective discharge. We calculate effective discharge, defi ned as the discharge that transports the most sediment, for 44 stations for which there is at least one complete year of daily suspended sediment concentration and mean daily discharge data, and fi nd that the effective discha...

User-deened aggregates can be the linchpin of sophisticated datamining functions and other advanced database applications , but they nd little support in current database systems including Object-Relational databases. Three serious limitations of current databases are (i) the inability of introducing new aggregates (e.g., by coding them in a procedural language as proposed in SQL3), (ii) the in...

In this contribution, we are concerned with the detection and reened localization of 3D point landmarks. We propose multi-step diierential procedures which are generalizations of an existing two-step procedure for subpixel localization of 2D point landmarks. This two-step procedure combines landmark detection by applying a diierential operator with reened localization through a diierential edge...

Cornell potential is known to represent the quark-antiquark confinement interaction. In addition potential, there have been other interactions in literature that demonstrate confining structure system. Guendelman has proposed a nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) model which results electric form of this study, we propose two NED models whose potentials. We also study coupling gravity one these are...

We show that the spherically symmetric black hole (BH) solution of a charged (linear case) field equation Rastall gravitational theory is not affected by parameter and this consistent with results presented in literature. However, when we apply Rastall’s to special form nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) source, derive novel BH involves parameter. The main source appearance trace part NED which ha...

In this paper we develop valid inference for high-dimensional time series. We extend the desparsified lasso to a series setting under Near-Epoch Dependence (NED) assumptions allowing non-Gaussian, serially correlated and heteroskedastic processes, where number of regressors can possibly grow faster than dimension. first derive an error bound weak sparsity, which, coupled with NED assumption, me...

Neuroendocrine differentiation (NED), which is not uncommon in prostate cancer, is increases in prostate cancer after androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) and generally appears in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Neuroendocrine cells, which are found in normal prostate tissue, are a small subset of cells and have unique function in regulating the growth of prostate cells. Prostate can...

The diagnosis of neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) is made primarily on the basis of ultrastructure and/or immunohistochemistry (IHC). Synaptophysin (Syn) and chromogranin A (CgA) are two important frequently used NED markers in colorectal cancer (CRC). The association between NED and the prognosis of stage II CRC remains controversial. Administration of adjuvant chemotherapy remains challen...

The objective of the current study was to investigate the significance and biologic characteristic of neuroendocrine cell differentiation (NED) in gastric carcinoma by comparing the prognosis and clinicopathologic characteristics between patients with or without NED. Retrospective analyses of neuroendocrine markers, neuron specific enolase (NSE), chromogranin A (CgA), and synaptophysin (Syn) we...
