Objective. The aim of this case report was to document a implant associated central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) and review the literature on intrabony lesions. CGCG is most common in females usually seen mandible from anterior posterior. Based its clinical, radiological, histological findings, it can be classified as aggressive non-aggressive forms. Trauma considered major etiological factor fo...

Abstract Introduction Incisional ventral hernia is one of the most common surgical complications after laparotomy. The aim this retrospective observational study an evaluation clinical outcomes laparoscopic repair incisional hernias with a non-absorbable and transparent composite prosthesis composed macro-porous monofilament polypropylene mesh film. Materials Methods 63 patients, from January 2...

We assess the accuracy of various state-of-the-art statistics and machine learning methods for reconstructing gene and protein regulatory networks in the context of circadian regulation. Our study draws on the increasing availability of gene expression and protein concentration time series for key circadian clock components in Arabidopsis thaliana. In addition, gene expression and protein conce...

BACKGROUND Villous duodenal adenomas are rare, tend to malignant alteration and recurrency if surgical procedures are not sufficiently radical. They are mostly localized in the second portion of the duodenum and close to a papilla and are prone to malignant alteration. CASE REPORT In this paper we presented a 79-year-old female patient already operated on twice elsewhere due to obstructive ja...

BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies about cardiovascular diseases often rely on methods based on time-to-first-event for data analysis. Without taking into account multiple event-types and the recurrency of a specific cardiovascular event, this approach may underestimate the overall cardiovascular burden of some risk factors, if that is the goal of the study. METHODS In this study we compare f...

Let P be a locally finite disk pattern on the complex plane C whose combinatorics is described by the one-skeleton G of a triangulation of the open topological disk and whose dihedral angles are equal to a function Θ : E → [0, π/2] on the set of edges. Let P ∗ be a combinatorially equivalent disk pattern on the plane with the same dihedral angle function. We show that P and P ∗ differ only by a...

A radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the measurement of thyroglobulin in human serum was developed and factors that influence sensitivity were investigated. In a comparison of 3 different labeling procedures (chloramine T, iodogen, lactoperoxidase) iodogen-prepared tracer proved to be slightly superior with respect to sensitivity and stability. The shelf life of the tracer was improved by a protein-enr...

Background: Achieving haemostasis during surgical procedures within the brain is of paramount importance. Bipolar cauterization is most effectively used to occlude identifiable vessels but it has minimal efficacy in controlling the oozing bleeding that characterises most neurological pathologies. In such cases chemical haemostatic agents are often preferable to bipolar cautery. Rarely these che...

In this article, we present a perspective on the role of the hippocampal system in generalization, instantiated in a computational model called REMERGE (recurrency and episodic memory results in generalization). We expose a fundamental, but neglected, tension between prevailing computational theories that emphasize the function of the hippocampus in pattern separation (Marr, 1971; McClelland, M...
