Renal hemangioma is a rare tumor which can be capillary or cavernous. There have been less than 30 renal capillary hemangioma cases reported in the English literature. Herein we will report a case of renal hemangioma which was detected in a 74-year-old man operated with the impression of urothelial carcinoma of hilum.

A capillary plasma z-pinch as an alternative active medium of soft X-Ray lasers was studied experimentally and theoretically. The theoretical analysis was based on the self consistent solution of the so called “snow plow” model. The dynamics of pinched plasma is determined by the capillary parameters and by the time dependence of electrical current passing through it. The current time dependenc...

In 1976, a three-year study was started in Biddeford, Maine, a non-F city, to compare the cariostatic effect of weekly use of a 0.2~ NaF rinse with daily use of a 0.05~ NaF rinse in a public health program. Participants in grades 5-7 (ages 10-12) in public and parochial schools were randomly assigned to the weekly F rinse, daily F rinse or control group that rinsed weekly with a placebo solutio...

INTRODUCTION THE PREVALENCE OF GINGIVITIS IN ADULTS IN THE United States exceeds 50% and approaches 100% in some population groups.1,2 Similar proportions are believed to exist in Canada, although data are lacking. Although the prevalence of periodontitis is decreasing in some populations, it increases with age and may effect as many as 80% of seniors.3 While gingivitis is not a good predictor ...

Objectives This is a protocol for Cochrane Review (diagnostic). The objectives are as follows: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of near‐patient tests G6PD deficiency in people undergoing treatment or prophylaxis with primaquine tafenoquine malaria; at risk susceptible to malaria. Secondary investigate sources heterogeneity, namely following. Age: adults versus children Sex: male female Reporte...

To evaluate the decontamination effect of Inspexx 210, a cold-water disinfectant containing peracetic acid and peroctanoic (0.16%), knives contaminated with E. coli ATCC 25922 S. aureus 29213 as well naturally collected from different slaughtering steps an abattoir were examined. Treatment 210 for 15 s reduced mean counts by 5.95 log CFU/cm2 6.24 CFU/cm2. Contamination first fat thereafter bact...

the purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of glass capillary micropipette (gcm) as a vessel forvitrification of bovine oocytes. cumulus-oocyte complexes (cocs) were obtained from slaughter-house andwashed 5 to 6 times in the washing medium (tcm-199 + 20% fbs) and randomly assigned to treatment andcontrol group. in the first step of vitrification, cocs were exposed to first vitrification...

This paper describes a technique for growing filamentous cells of Escherichia coli with defined shapes, including crescents, zigzags, sinusoids, and spirals. The procedure begins with the fabrication of embossed microchambers in agarose. Cells are trapped in the chambers by placing a flat, flexible "ceiling", either a slab of agarose or poly(dimethylsiloxane), against an agarose mold on which a...

Recent studies have shown that although the different designs applied to the filament arrangement of the bristles of the toothbrushes show an improvement in plaque removal, it may also increase bacterial retention and growth. In fact, this event may create more damage instead of benefit in our regular oral hygiene because it may become a possible source for oral recontamination. The new designs...

Basturma, a spiced beef product intended to be cooked before consumption, was prepared in three trials by dry-curing intact surface-inoculated (6 log cfu per piece with Salmonella serovars, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes) beef eye of round subprimals for 21 days at 6.7C, and then rinsing, pressing and drying for 6–8 days at 21–27C. The finished products had percentage water...
