In the light of the increasing burden of pollutants in major rivers and stringent environmental legislation, adaptation to eco-friendly treatment approaches is desperately required to decontaminate industrial effluents before its discharge to rivers and other fresh water-bodies. In present study, we have designed a simple and efficient method for removal of phenols from effluent wastewater usin...

In the present work, impact of Lewis acid (LA) catalysts BF3, BCl3, and BBr3 on the kinetics andregioselectivity of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC) reaction between azidobenzene and acroleinwas theoretically studied using B3LYP/6-31G* level. Our results indicate while the uncatalyzed 1,3-DC reaction under investigation takes place via a non-polar, non-regioselective, and lowasynchronous proc...

Material Between years 2001 and 2012, a group of 26361 patients had thyroid lesions diagnosed by USG-FNAB. At least one carcinoma was diagnosed (including two metastases) in 343 patients. Surgical specimens (SS) revealed 419 malignancies, with 335 PTCs. A diameter of histologically measured PTCs ranged from 0.5 mm to 170mm, where those correctly diagnosed in USG-FNAB was between 3 and 170 mm. N...

Objectives The presence of thyroglobulin (Tg) in needle washouts of fine needle aspiration biopsy (Tg-FNAB) in neck lymph nodes (LNs) suspected of metastasis has become a cornerstone in the follow-up of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). However, there are limited data regarding the measurement of anti-Tg antibodies in these washouts (TgAb-FNAB), and it is not clear whether these ...

AIM To assess the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNAB) in patients with solid pancreatic masses. METHODS Ninety nine consecutive patients with pancreatic masses were studied. Histological findings obtained by EUS-FNAB were compared with the final diagnosis assessed by surgery, biopsy of other tumour site or at postmortem examination...

Material Since year 2000 all FNABs, including thyroid gland, were performed and evaluated according to the accepted diagnostic algorithm. Between 2001 and 2012 FNAB was performed for 26361 patients, in 28079 biopsy sessions with 40815 ultrasonographically selected and biopsied thyroid lesions. Since year 2001, all data about subsequently surgically treated patients along with pathology reports ...

INTRODUCTION The majority of thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) today are performed in the office freehand by palpation. Not infrequently, patients are sent to radiology for an ultrasound-guided FNAB (USG-FNB). Real-time ultrasound (US) allows for continuous visualization of the needle during insertion and sampling. Historically, USG-FNAB has been a procedure performed by a radiolog...

A 68-year-old woman with a history of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) resected curatively 12 years previously was admitted to our department for scrutiny of pancreatic tumors. Various imaging studies demonstrated heterogeneously well-enhanced masses in the head and tail of the pancreas. The well-enhanced mass in the head of the pancreas was connected with the tumor thrombus in the portal vein. To di...

Aim—To assess the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNAB) in patients with solid pancreatic masses. Methods—Ninety nine consecutive patients with pancreatic masses were studied. Histological findings obtained by EUS-FNAB were compared with the final diagnosis assessed by surgery, biopsy of other tumour site or at postmortem examination, ...
