This paper proposes simplified antenna model and a position estimating approximation for a system level simulation of advanced handover protocols with smart antennas. This models have been implemented in our simulation tool MOSIT that is based on the Specification and Description Language SDL (ITU Z.100). One application of our simulation tool is the examination of a new approach for a advanced...

Granular cell tumor is a rare benign neoplasm most commonly appears in the head and neck region, especially in the tongue, cheek mucosa, and palate. Occurrence in limbs is even rarer. These tumors account for approximately 0.5% of all soft tissue tumors. Granular cell tumor can also affect other organs including skin, breast, and lungs. Local recurrence and metastasis is potentially higher in m...

conclusions consumption of ole after tumor transplantation reduced the tumor growth. on the other hand, owing to its highly-packed polyphenols, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities in tumor tissue were increased. results treatment with 150 and 225 mg/kg/day of ole reduced the tumor volume and weight (p < 0.05) compared to the first group significantly. it also increased the cat activity...

littoral cell angioma is a splenic vascular tumor of splenic sinus lining cells that is considered benign in general. this report describes a case of littoral cell angioma with no malignant histological features. the lesion is composed of anastomosing vascular channels resembling splenic sinus; they are lined by endothelial cells which show mitotic activity very rare. immunohistochemically, the...

HE PRINCIPAL SUBJECT MATTER of this paper is the description of a thod of obtaining a calibration curve relating apparent absorbancy 81) and concentration (x). It is frequently observed that the orbancy index decreases with increasing concentration in cases in ich one would expect Beer’s law, A = log(10/I) = KX, to hold. For ample, with our instrument, the absorbancy index at 273.5 m of a lutio...

accumulating evidence suggests that self-renewal and differentiation capabilities reside only in a subpopulation of tumor cells, termed cancer stem cells (cscs), whereas the remaining tumor cell population lacks the ability to initiate tumor development or support continued tumor growth. in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (hnscc), as with other malignancies, cscs have been increasingly sh...

Background: Giant cell tumor is a benign but locally aggressive bone neoplasm which uncommonly involves the skull. Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the sphenoid bone is relatively rare. In this report, we describe a tumor of the greater wing of left sphenoid bone. Case presentation: A 31-year-old female was presented with headache, proptosis and diplopia of her left eye. Cranial magnetic resonance ima...

Background: OCT4B1, a variant of OCT4, is expressed in both cancer cells and tissues. This variant has a main role in the regulation of both apoptotic and stress (heat-shock proteins) pathways. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of OCT4B1 silencing on the expression of small heat-shock proteins (sHSPs)in three human tumor cell lines. Methods:...

Background:  Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath (GCTTS) is often thought of as a volar finger mass. We hypothesized that GCTTS are equally common on the dorsal and volar aspects of the hand. In addition, we hypothesized that there are no factors associated with the location (volar versus dorsal) and largest measured dimension of a GCTTS.  Methods:  A total of 126 patients with a pathological dia...
