Abstract Background and Aims Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMAs) manifest themselves in arteries, arterioles glomeruli. Nephropathologists need to differentiate TMAs from mimickers like hypertensive nephropathy vasculitis which can be problematic due interobserver disagreement poorly defined diagnostic criteria over a wide spectrum of morphological changes with partial overlap. As first step to...

OBJECTIVE To review atypical focus suspicious but not diagnostic of malignancy in needle biopsies of the prostate, also referred to as "atypical small acinar proliferation suspicious for but not diagnostic of malignancy." METHODS A number of descriptive and somewhat confusing terms have been used to refer to a prostate tissue biopsy with small focus of atypical glands. Based on MEDLINE databa...

ABSTRACT The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has recently observed the image and shadow of supermassive compact object Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). According to EHT collaboration, is consistent with expected appearance a Kerr black hole. However, it well-known that some non-Kerr objects may mimic many properties hole, hence, their shadows might be Sgr A*. In this work, we consider two hole mimickers ...

The measurements of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) provide a quite powerful tool to test the nature astrophysical black hole candidates in strong gravitational field regime. In this paper, we use QPOs within relativistic precession model recently proposed family rotating mimickers, which reduce Kerr metric limiting case, and can represent traversable wormholes or regular holes with one two ...

To inform our ongoing efforts to develop defining features to be incorporated into a novel set of classification criteria for discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), we conducted a literature review using the Ovid MEDLINE database. A search was performed to identify studies reporting criteria used to distinguish DLE from other cutaneous lupus erythematosus subtypes. We examined which clinical, histo...

A case of primary adrenal microcystic/reticular schwannoma affecting the right adrenal gland in a 31-year-old female was reported. Histologically, the tumor significantly consisted of strikingly anastomosing strands of spindle cells imparting a microcystic and reticular pattern with a focal transition to epithelioid nests. Immunohistochemically, S-100 and CD56 protein showed a uniform and stron...
