In 43 patients with Graves' disease, 5 patients with painless thyroiditis and 30 patients with Hashimoto-thyroiditis ultrasonographical observations and histological examinations by needle biopsy of the thyroid were carried out simultaneously. In all cases the level of echo-amplitude was well correlated with the rate of lymphocytic infiltrations and fibrosis. In cases which exhibited marked lym...

Background: Androgenic hair loss (AGA) and alopecia areata (AA) are common conditions which sometimes are histologically difficult to differentiate. This study was conducted to detect differentiating features of these two disorders with IHC analysis of T-cell subsets in the inflammatory infiltrates of alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia. Methods: This cr...

IL-2 mediates the regression of certain malignancies, but clinical use is limited because of associated toxicities, including parenchymal lymphocytic infiltration with multiple organ failure. Secondarily induced cytokines are important mediators of IL-2 toxicity and IL-2-induced lymphocyte-endothelial adherence and trafficking. The recently discovered C-C chemokines, RANTES (regulated on activa...

Postmortem examination of a 5.5-year-old Holstein cow with history of sudden death showed a veryhuge spleen (120 × 45 × 10 cm) associated with severe haemoperitoneum. Histopathological findingsincluded extensive infiltration of medium to large sized lymphocytic and lymphoblastic cells with smallamounts of cytoplasm, round nuclei with coarsely granular chromatin in the spleen, and limited foci o...

postsurgical hypothyroidism and its incidence has not been fully investigated. in this study, the incidence of hypothyroidism and its possible risk factors at shariati hospital was assessed. one hundred and two patients with benign thyroid diseases, who had undergone thyroidectomy, were investigated with regards to thyroid function profile during period of one year after the operation every thr...

Lymphocytic infiltration was assessed semiquantitatively in 447 specimens of rectal cancer. Corrected five year survivals for pronounced, moderate, and little lymphocytic infiltration were 92%, 65% and 36%, respectively. Grading was shown to be reproducible in an intraobserver study (observed agreement 81%, expected agreement 34%, kappa coefficient 0.72). In the multivariate survival analysis o...
