INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Pilomatricoma is the second most common skin tumor in childhood and youth and it has a broad differential diagnosis. The main objective of the present study was to determine the incidence of pilomatricomas in our hospital and to analyze the following variables: patient age and sex, tumor site, symptoms, previous trauma, clinical diagnosis, associated diseases, number...

We describe a method of object-selective quantizer control in a standard coding system based on MC DCT| CCITT Recommendation H.261. The approach is based on two novel algorithms, namely buuer rate modulation and buuer size modulation. By forcing the rate control algorithm to transfer a relatively small fraction|about 10{ 15% on average|of the total available bit rate from the coding of the non-...

The endothelial lectinlike, oxidatively (ox-) modified LDL receptor LOX-1 is a critical player in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and myocardial ischemia. Ox-LDL binding of LOX-1 results in the expression of various adhesion molecules, which attract monocytes to endothelial cells, an initial step in atherogenesis. We wished to examine the role of the ox-LDL/LOX-1 signaling pathway in fibrob...
