Prime numbers play a very vital role in modern cryptography and especially the difficulties involved in factoring numbers composed of product of two large prime numbers have been put to use in many modern cryptographic designs. Thus, the problem of distinguishing prime numbers from the rest is vital and therefore there is a need to have efficient primality testing algorithms. Although there had...

Actinic keratoses (AKs), especially on areas of the face, have a negative impact on a patient's quality of life (QoL). These lesions manifest on sun-damaged skin and have the potential to progress to squamous cell carcinoma. Field-directed therapy alone and in combination with lesion-directed treatment is effective in clearing both visible and nonvisible AK lesions. Topical treatments of AKs th...

Introduction. Actinic keratoses (AKs), a premalignant skin lesion, are a common lesion in fair skin. Although destructive treatment remains the gold standard for AKs, medical therapies may be preferable due to the comfort and reliability .This study aims to compare the effects of topical 1% colchicine gel and 3% diclofenac sodium gel in AKs.

OBJECTIVE To determine the significance of the dermatologic and systemic abnormalities found in 11 patients with Fabry disease (FD) which is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by the partial or complete deficiency of the alpha-galactosidase A enzyme.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an attractive therapy for non-melanoma skin cancers including actinic keratoses (AKs) because it allows treatment of large areas; it has a high response rate and results in an excellent cosmesis. However, conventional PDT for AKs is associated with inconveniently long clinic visits and discomfort during therapy. In this article, we critically review daylight-mediat...

To assess the immunological cross-reactivity of the monobactam antibiotic aztreonam (AZ), rabbits were immunized with protein conjugates of benzylpenicillin, cephalothin (CEPH), and AZ. The resulting antibenzylpenicilloyl (BPO) and anti-CEPH rabbit antibodies showed negligible cross-reactivity with AZ conjugated to human serum albumin (AZ-HSA), whereas anti-AZ showed negligible cross-reactivity...
