Among the most sensitive investors would be institutional investors who are constantly seeking to maximize their portfolio's rankings. This study examines changes in institutional investments on the basis of firm size, price/earnings ratios and Timeliness rankings. Instituti...

Transvaginal sonohysterography was performed on 40 consecutive patients with infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss and uterine abnormalities on hysterosalpingography. The findings were correlated with the hysterosalpingogram and subsequent diagnostic and/or operative hysteroscopy. Hysterosalpingography was incorrect in nine cases. Sonohysterography was more accurate than hysterosalpingography...

The discovery of extraordinary transmission through periodic aperture arrays has generated significant interest. Most studies have used circular apertures and attributed enhanced transmission to surface plasmon polariton (SPP) resonances and/or Rayleigh-Wood anomalies (RWA). Bowtie apertures concentrate light and have much longer cutoff wavelengths than circular apertures and can be designed to...

Temporal correlation between atmospheric anomalies and earthquakes has recently been verified statistically through measuring VHF FM radio waves transmitted beyond the line-of-sight. In order to locate the sources of such atmospheric anomalies, we developed a VHF interferometer system (bistatic-radar type) capable of finding the arrival direction of FM radio waves scattered possibly by earthqua...

undescended ovary is a rare entity and usually presentedas a case report. it is associated with urinary and uterine anomalies. symptomatic patients are diagnosed during surgery. most of the patients are asymptomatic and treatment is unnecessary. they are incidentally diagnosed during infertility evaluation and treatment such as ovarian hyperstimulation studies. a 15-year-old female patient pres...

BACKGROUND The unicornuate uterine anomaly is often difficult to diagnose and usually low on the list of differential diagnoses for pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea. The authors present a case of a rudimentary uterine horn as a cause for continued pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea in a previously hysterectomized woman. CASE REPORT A 43-year-old woman, gravida 1, para 1, presented for evaluation of rig...
