Invasive cribriform carcinoma (ICC) is a rare type of invasive breast cancer. We aim to investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotypes, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ICC. Thus, clinicopathological data of 12 ICC patients were collected. All 12 cases were female, aged 38 to 75 years, with a median age of 53 years old. The maximum diameter of the tumor was 2 cm to 10 cm,...

We examined the basic conservation laws for diffeomorphism symmetry in context of spontaneous and local Lorentz-symmetry breaking. The were used as constraints on a generic series terms an expansion around flat background. found all such two-tensor coupling to cubic order metric tensor field fluctuations. results are presented form that can be phenomenological calculations. One key result is if...

The healthy ‘special case’ in neuropsychology! Synaesthesia (Galton, 1883) is a condition in which a particular stimulus (e.g., seeing the letter R) evokes a particular additional sensation (e.g., a deep purple colour). Synaesthesia is automatic in the sense that the cross-sensations are fast and seemingly effortless, and highly consistent as the same associations persist from early childhood. ...

We consider the random graph induced by the random key predistribution scheme of Eschenauer and Gligor under the assumption of full visibility. We report on recent results concerning a conjectured zero-one law for graph connectivity, and provide simple proofs for some special cases.

BACKGROUND Lesions in perineal area are common. The usual treatment is coverage by skin graft and flaps which may be local, pedicled or free types. In this paper V-Y flaps were used to cover the defects. METHODS V-Y flaps were used in the gluteal area in 15 patients. Lesions were due to different causes. RESULTS Of 15 patients, 11 were males and 4 were females. Their ages ranged from 3...

Hepatocellular adenoma is a rare benign tumor that was increasingly diagnosed in the 1980s and 1990s. This increase has been attributed to the widespread use of oral hormonal contraceptives and the broader availability and advances of radiological tests. We report two cases of patients with large hepatic adenomas who were subjected to minimally invasive treatment using arterial embolization. On...

Every closed, oriented, real analytic Riemannian 3-manifold can be isometrically embedded as a special Lagrangian submanifold of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, even as the real locus of an antiholomorphic, isometric involution. Every closed, oriented, real analytic Riemannian 4-manifold whose bundle of self-dual 2-forms is trivial can be isometrically embedded as a coassociative submanifold in a G2-manif...

OBJECTIVE: To examine the loss of earning capacity and permanent impairment of a cohort of male patients who had experienced finger amputation due to occupational injury. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: University teaching hospital, Hong Kong. PATIENTS: Twenty-eight male patients aged 26 to 55 years who presented with work-related finger amputations in their dominant right hand from ...
