Early detection of small bowel neoplasms is desirable but challenging for both clinicians and radiologists. Conventional double contrast enteroclysis was the method of choice in small bowel imaging but is increasingly being replaced by cross-sectional i...

Testicular germ cell tumors, though rare (1%), represent the most common neoplasm among young men. Gastrointestinal involvement from these malignancies usually presents as bowel obstruction and digestive bleeding, but their frequency is low (5%).

Patients with LAMN can present abdominal pain mimic clinically as appendicitis, intussusception or obstruction, hence high clinical suspicion needed for correct diagnosis management.

In vitro studies on cancer cell lines still constitutes a major part of cancer research. It is very important that the researchers consider the importance of basic conditions of working with different cell lines. To the best of authors knowledge, this study is the first one to report the effect of seeding density on the growth curve of three human cancer cell lines. These cell lines include hum...

In the 1990s numerous winter orographic cloud seeding experiments were conducted over Utah’s Wasatch Plateau. Several previously published case studies successfully documented the physical response in clouds and precipitation to ground-based seeding with silver iodide and liquid propane. A previously unpublished case study that shows additional evidence of positive seeding effects is presented ...
