Anatomical Distribution of Intramuscular Lipomas

Published on: 19th April, 2017

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7286426158

Lipomas are the most common type of soft tissue tumor occurring in the subcutaneous tissue. Rarely, lipomas present in the deep soft tissue such as intermuscular, intramuscular, and parosteal sites. When they occur within a skeletal muscle they are called intramuscular lipomas. Intramuscular lipomas may involve both children and adults. They are benign, nontender, deep located, circumscribed but unencapsulated lesions. Intramuscular lipomas account less than 1% of all lipomas. Most are located within a single muscle (solitary), while cases involving two or more muscles are very rare. They present with typical histological features. They may be divided into the infiltrative, the well-circumscribed and the mixed type. Differential diagnosis of the infiltrative type from liposarcoma is very difficult. Local recurrence may be evident if the surgical margin is not clear. They can occur in almost any anatomical site [1-15].

Synthesis, Radioiodination and Biological distribution of 5-(5-(tributylstannyl) benzofuran-2-yl) pyridin-2-amine as an amyloid imaging agent

Published on: 26th December, 2017

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7317576309

In this work an efficient method developed for the synthesis of 125I-benzofuran-2-yl) pyridin-2-amine (125IBPA), followed by radioiodination with 125I by using Chloramine-T at pH 8. The reaction proceeds within 10 min at room temperature (20-25°C). The radiochemical yield determined by Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) using hexane:ethyl acetate (1:6 v/v) and the purity analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography using a reversed-phase RP18column and acetonitrile:0.1 M ammonium bicarbonate (pH 7.5) (1:1) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 ml×min−1. The radiochemical yield using aH2O2 oxidant found equal to 96.5% with a radiochemical purity of 125I-BPA of over 96.5%. The biodistribution data in normal mice indicated a high initial uptake of 6.54±0.10 (% ID/g±SD) in the brain within 30 min post-injection. These results promote a further the use of 125I-BPA as a novel agent for brain imaging.

Investigation on the occurrence of Hairy Polyp and Choristoma in Oral Cavity: A case study

Published on: 17th August, 2017

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7317627576

Hairy polyp and choristoma are rare benign developmental malformations. Hairy polyp mainly occurs in the nasopharynx whereas choristoma occurs in the dorsum of the tongue. Aetiology and pathogenesis of both hairy polyp and choristoma still remain unknown. Diagnosis is made by histological examination and complete excision is the treatment of choice. We report a case of hairy polyp and choristoma on the palate and the dorsum of the tongue respectively in a seventeen days old baby.

Call to Action! Hypertension and Dyslipidemia in Mexico: Underestimated Deadly Duo

Published on: 11th December, 2024

Background: High blood pressure and dyslipidemia are risk factors that begin silently and share many pathophysiological mechanisms of tissue damage.Aim: Draw attention to this binomial (Hypertension and dyslipidemia) that is highly prevalent in Mexico and is mainly responsible for the leading atherothrombotic process as a cause of death in Mexico and the world.Methods: Reflective analysis of the evidence accumulated in the last 20 years. We launch key messages and support why every hypertensive patient should be treated with a statin.Results: We call for awareness to measure lipid levels and blood pressure twice a year from the age of 20 and to detect these devastating nosological entities as soon as possible. We remove the myth that PCSK9 inhibitors as well as the small interfering RNA of its synthesis are only for familial dyslipidemia. Measurement of serum Lp(a) should be routine, especially if you have a history of your own and family cardiovascular events.Conclusion: We should be aware of the little impact that health strategies have had to stop the main cause of death in Mexico. Every hypertensive patient should receive a statin, even if their serum LDLc levels are apparently normal. The great challenge of optimal control of the population with hypertension and/or dyslipidemia continues. The small interfering RNA synthesis PCSK9 should also be considered when conventional therapies are not sufficient and this situation is not infrequent.

Place of beta-radiation in the etiology and treatment of cataract

Published on: 9th February, 2018

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7355970716

Among eye diseases, cataract is the most commonly encountered lens disease and the leading cause of reduced vision. Cataract caused by radiation develops due to neck & head, central nervous system tumors, eye localized tumors and total body irradiation. Today, the only treatment of cataract is surgery. Beta radiation is seen to have an important place both in the etiology and treatment of cataract. Beta-radiation creates cataract in the lens as an adverse effect. However, beta radiation implementation is used for delay or prevention of cataract in glaucoma surgery. Effects of beta-radiation on the etiology and treatment should be supported by further prospective clinical studies.

Brachial Plexus Schwannoma: Report of 4 cases with Intralesional Enucleation

Published on: 28th December, 2017

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7869137380

Brachial plexus tumours are rare. It comprises of only 5% of all tumours of upper limb [1]. The two most common brachial plexus region tumors are schwannomas and neurofibromas [2-4]. Both are benign and arise from the nerve sheath. XiaotianJia et al., published a large case series of 143 patients with primary brachial plexus tumors in 2016. In his series, there are 119 schwannoma and 12 neurofibromas [3]. Schwannomas are most frequently found in the head and neck region, which comprises 25% of all Schwannomas. There are only about 5% of schwannomas present as brachial plexus tumours [5].

Impedance audiometry: Stapedial reflex eliciting conditions

Published on: 20th September, 2017

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7317656261

The work is an attempt to create a complete system of conditions which influence genesis, existence, and response characteristics of stapedial reflex in impedance audiometry. The author divides the conditions into the internal-reflex arc integrity, temporal acoustic summation, mixed-external auditory meatus and middle ear, and internal-side of stimulation and energy content of the stimulus. The system of conditions that influence stapedial reflex is based on a criterion, that stapedial reflex depends on energy, which is percepted by the inner ear as subjective loudness. The system of conditions stated in this work is based mainly on the author’s own experiments and measurements, which are herein also documented. At the same time, these results are in accordance with data in literature as quoted. This system is not closed-it potentially may be completed using the basic criterion and further knowledge.

Low vision due to persistent Cloquet’s canal

Published on: 26th June, 2018

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7795965841

The Cloquet’s canal (CC) is the remnant of the primary vitreous and it disappears in the intrauterine developmental period of an eye. Rarely it can persist in mature eyes and cause low visual acuity. We detected a persistent CC and low visual acuity in a 36 year-old patient. Fundus fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography examinations were completely normal in our case and low visual acuity was directly associated with opacification of the fibrovascular persistent CC tissue. Persistent CC can cause low visual acuity due to directly media opacity effect of fibrovascular tissue without any complication.

Ion transporters and their molecular regulation mechanism in plants

Published on: 25th May, 2021

OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 9057592313

With the global population predicted to grow by at least 25% by 2050, the need for sustainable production of nutritious foods is important for human and environmental health. Recent progress demonstrate that membrane transporters can be used to improve yields of staple crops, increase nutrient content and resistance to key stresses, including salinity, which in turn could expand available arable land. Exposure to salt stress affects plant water relations and creates ionic stress in the form of the cellular accumulation of Na+ and Cl− ions. However, salt stress also impacts heavily on the homeostasis of other ions such as Ca2+, K+, and NO3- and therefore requires insights into how transport and compartmentation of these nutrients are altered during salinity stress. Since Na+ interferes with K+ homeostasis, maintaining a balanced cytosolic Na+/K+ ratio has become a key salinity tolerance mechanism. Achieving this homeostatic balance requires the activity of Na+ and K+ transporters and/or channels. The aim of this review is to seek answers to this question by examining the role of major ions transporters and channels in ions uptake, translocation and intracellular homeostasis in plants.
