Poria carnegieae was described from Arizona growing on the woody ribs of saguaro cactus, Carnegiea gigantea, and transferred to Ceriporiopsis due morphological evidence. Posterior phylogenetic studies showed a relationship with Bjerkandera. New sequence data morphologic evidence are presented support transfer

Sericographis cordifolia is reinstated and a new combination Justicia proposed when transferred to Justicia. Additionally, detailed morphologic description for this species, field photographs, taxonomic nomenclatural comments, species conservation status assessed according IUCN criteria are provided.

Necrosis refers to a spectrum of morphologic changes that follow cell death in living tissue, largely resulting from the progressive degradative action enzymes on lethally injured (cells placed immediately fixative are dead but not necrotic).

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia-cardiomyopathy (ARVD-C) is a rare heart condition with characteristic thinning and fibroadipose tissue replacement of the myocardium of the right ventricular wall. We have seen 20 autopsy cases with morphologic features fitting the criteria of ARVD-C in our hospital in the past 5 years. The clinical characteristics of these patients were not those desc...

V lesions are of principal importance in the progression of various primary and secondary kidney diseases (1). In the majority of individuals with kidney diseases, vascular component, is involved secondarily in the disease process affecting primarily the glomeruli. Indeed, in IgAN as a common and progressive glomerulopathy, impaired kidney function, hypertension, proteinuria and interstitial fi...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the morphologic and functional features of myocardial bridging (MB) and to investigate the impact of morphologic features on presence of atherosclerosis with multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography. STUDY DESIGN The study population consisted of 191 consecutive patients. Besides coronary lesions, morpholog...

We reviewed 17 cases of primary anorectal malignant melanoma. Morphologic features evaluated included junctional change, pigmentation, morphology, and mitotic rate. Immunohistochemical stains were performed for/with S-100 protein, HMB-45, MelanA, tyrosinase, vimentin, KIT, and pankeratin. Morphologic subtypes were as follows: epithelioid, 12 cases; spindle cell, 7 cases; lymphoma-like, 10 cases...

The purpose of this study was to investigate crown morphologic abnormalities in the permanent dentition of subjects with clefts and unaffected controls. This is a prospective study of 100 patients and 60 control subjects. The study was carried out at the Cleft Lip and Palate Center at the King Abdullah University Hospital and at the Maxillofacial Unit at Jordan University of Science and Technol...

A total of 112 rabies virus-infected skunk brain samples from naturally occurring cases (64 from Missouri, 48 from Kentucky) were code labeled and grouped into two morphologic categories according to the appearance and size of the discrete particles observed by immunofluorescent-antibody staining. The reactivity of the blind-labeled samples was then determined using a panel of 23 antinucleocaps...
