BACKGROUND Late hematoma after breast augmentation is a rare phenomenon with unproven etiology. METHODS Five patients presented with a late unilateral hematoma after receiving bilateral, submuscular, smooth, round, silicone gel implants for cosmetic breast augmentation. All patients underwent explantation and capsulectomy. Extensive clinical and histological analysis of all capsules was perfo...

the experiment was carried out in a factorial arrangement with the base of randomized complete block design in three repetitions. the first factor consisted of 11 bed for eating worm and the second factor is the different seasons (spring and autumn) respectively. traits was including number of capsules (coconut), the number of adult worms, the number of immature worms, live worms masses (mg), m...

A four-way, double-blind, prospective trial of treatment of abscesses by incision, curettage, and primary closure with and without antibiotic cover (clindamycin injection before operation or capsules after operation, or both) was conducted. There was no appreciable difference in mean healing time between the patients given both the antibiotic injection and the antibiotic capsules and those give...

To determine the acceptability of oral typhoid vaccine to Thai children, 434 volunteers, aged 4-15 years (average age = 8.2 years), were assigned to take three capsules of oral typhoid vaccine (one capsule every other day). Success was defined as the subjects' being able to swallow all three capsules. Information concerning the subjects' level of education, eating habits, and ability to take me...

Both study designs were randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials qualifying as a level of evidence Ia. In the study by Martinez, Franceschini, Patta, Quintana, Gomes, et al. (2009), half of the women received a single dose of tinidazole (2g) in addition to 2 placebo capsules while half received tinidazole (2g) supplemented with 2 capsules containing L. rhamnosus GR-1 and L. reuteri R...

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) was renowned in the ancient ages for stability of its healthy oil, accessibility extraction, and drought resilience. Consequently, to produce novel varieties, present work entails utilization basic metrics variability genetic variation. The investigation included 60 sesame genotypes 13 quantitative characteristics. analysis variance revealed that were significant all...

In 1946 Hale described a method for demonstrating acid mucopolysaccharides in sections based on the affinity of these compounds for colloidal iron oxide in acid solution. The combined iron was demonstrated by conversion to prussian blue. It has been found that bacterial capsules and slime are very well stained by Hale's method. This is possibly due to their content of acid mucopolysaccharides, ...

The recognition of fungal cells by the host immune system is key during the establishment of a protective anti-fungal response. Even though the immune system has evolved a vast number of processes to control these organisms, they have developed strategies to fight back, avoiding the proper recognition by immune components and thus interfering with the host protective mechanisms. Therefore, the ...

Gold nanoparticle-assembled capsules (GNACs) with controllable size and tunable morphology were fabricated through a simple two-step mixing procedure. Cationic polyelectrolyte was first induced to self-assemble into spherical aggregates in the presence of multivalent anions. Then, the aggregates served as an effective template for the self-assembly of gold nanoparticles to form size-controllabl...
