During a period of two years (1984 - 1985), three patients with diagnosis of choledocal cyst have gone under operation in department of pediatric surgery (Taleghani Medical Centre). Choledochal cyst is a congenital malformation of the pancreatobiliary system. Its pathogenesis is not yet completely understood.The famale/male predisposition is 4/1. More than 50% of the patients present during the...

We have examined the influence of different sterols and phospholipids on the activities of the cardiac sarcolemmal Na+-Ca2+ exchanger and Na+,K+-ATPase and the sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+-ATPase in reconstituted proteoliposomes. When either the solubilized Na+-Ca2+ exchanger or the Na+,K+-ATPase is reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine (PC):phosphatidylserine (30:50 by weight) vesicles, high c...

Introduction The patient’s demand being aesthetic, our answer must be aesthetic and respect an unhurried and progressive treatment rhythm. The development of reticular veins and telangiectasies being slow, the treatment cannot always be quick. The duration of this treatment does not depend on the wish of the patient, but on the necessities of a good result. The sclerotherapy’s length requires m...

The aim of this study was to investigate the dermoscopic changes in acquired melanocytic naevi in a large paediatric population over an interval of several years. Images of 717 melanocytic naevi were obtained from 160 consecutive patients. Dermoscopic pigment pattern changes were observed in one of two lesions after a follow-up of one year, in 34 of 295 lesions (11.5%) after 2 years, in 40 of 1...

We examined the projection from the basal forebrain to thalamic and cortical regions of the visual system in cats, with particular reference to the visual sector of the thalamic reticular nucleus, the lateral geniculate nucleus, and the striate cortex. First, we made injections of wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) into the visual sector of the thalamic reticul...

Treatment of advanced melanoma with selective BRAF and MEK inhibitors is associated with a series of mucocutaneous side effects, among which morphological changes in preexisting nevi and the development of new melanocytic lesions, both benign and malignant. Objective was to describe the changes observed in melanocytic nevi under vemurafenib therapy, followed by combination therapy with dabrafen...

The combination of porous reticular frameworks and nanocrystals (NCs) offers a rich playground to design materials with functionalities, which are beneficial for large variety applications. Ac...

Sequential thymidine radiograms from rats injected on day El5 and killed thereafter at daily intervals up to day E22 were analyzed t o trace the migratory routes and settling patterns of neurons of the lateral reticular nucleus and the external cuneate nucleus. The neurons of the lateral reticular and external cuneate nuclei originate in the primary precerebellar neuroepithelium at the same sit...

bstract—In the last 15 years a role has been ascribed for the edullary dorsal reticular nucleus as a supraspinal pain modlating area. The medullary dorsal reticular nucleus is reciproally connected with the spinal dorsal horn, is populated mainly y nociceptive neurons and regulates spinal nociceptive proessing. Here we analyze the distribution of brain projections rom the medullary dorsal retic...
