Resident Perspective: Inflammatory markers of complete blood count in Fuchs uveitis syndromeUnderstanding the underlying etiology and pathophysiology ophthalmological disorders is paramount to achieving early diagnosis improved patient outcomes. Although syndrome (FUS) a well-established recognized disorder characterized by chronic, low-grade anterior uveitis, precise this not yet fully underst...

OBJECTIVES There is a need to replace liver biopsy with non-invasive markers that predict the degree of liver fibrosis in fatty liver disease related to obesity. Therefore, we studied four potential serum markers of liver fibrosis and compared them with histopathological findings in liver biopsy in children with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS We determined fasting serum le...

BACKGROUND The vast majority of uterine cervical malignancies are primary carcinomas, and secondary neoplasms that metastasize to the uterine cervix from a distant organ are uncommon. Although relatively rare, metastases to the uterine cervix from a primary colon cancer have been reported. We report a rare case of metastatic carcinoma originating from a cecal adenocarcinoma with an unusual cyto...

Introduction. Currently, there are limited papers on changes in the pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium of sinonasal tract chronic inflammatory processes, particularly basal cell hyperplasia. The latter is similar to dysplasia varying severity stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium. Studying can clarify histogenesis various epithelial tumors tract, including papillomas. researc...

We show that, in the ideal-cipher model, triple encryption (the cascade of three independently-keyed blockciphers) is more secure than single or double encryption, thereby resolving a long-standing open problem. Our result demonstrates that for DES parameters (56-bit keys and 64-bit plaintexts) an adversary’s maximal advantage against triple encryption is small until it asks about 2 queries. Ou...

There is an enormous inequity in global health as well as research. Less than 10% of research funds are spent on the diseases that account for 90% of the global disease burden. This case study of north-south, south-south collaborations in Sri Lanka is a classic example of the issues faced by mental health researchers in low and middle income countries (LMICs). In this paper, work carried out by...
