Emerging Infectious Diseases • www.cdc.gov/eid • Vol. 13, No. 8, August 2007 1257 ESBLs among Klebsiella spp. ranged between 0.6% and 1.6%. In 2005 and 2006, the rate of ESBL-producing Klebsiella spp. increased to 3.8% (44 isolates) and 4.5% (55 isolates), respectively, and originated mainly from intensive care units (Figure, panel B). In 2005, a single Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate showed redu...

PATIENT Male, 38 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Cavernous hemangioma Symptoms: Headache • parietal mass MEDICATION - Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Neurosurgery. OBJECTIVE A rare disease. BACKGROUND Bone hemangioma is a vascular hemartoma of bone structures. In general, this pathology is detected on incidentally investigated patients' films. Bone hemangioma is most commonly seen in 4(th) decade of li...

INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT HUMIC ACID ON BONE REGENERATION IN PARIETAL DEFECTS FORMED RATS ABSTRACT Objectives: The objective of our study is to research the effect local humic acid on premature new bone amount in autogenous graft applications. Materials and Methods: 12-Week 24 rats Wistar Albino species with a ranging weight 230-250 g were used as subjects. laboratory animals divided into 4 g...

Follicular carcinoma is the second most common histological type of thyroid and has a particular tropism for bone. However, costal metastases remain rare events. We report two cases unique metastases, first which indicative late recurrence follicular carcinoma. performed in both complete removal with parietal reconstruction followed by radioiodine therapy. No recurrences were recorded after 06 ...

The earlier Middle Pleistocene human partial cranium from Hulu Cave, Tangshan, Nanjing (Hulu 1) exhibits an ectocranial lesion which covers most of the anterior neurocranium, largely between the temporal lines and extending from the supratoral sulcus to the anterior parietal bone. The endocranial surfaces and the remainder of the cranium (upper facial skeleton, lateral frontal bone, posterior p...

BACKGROUND The aims of present study were (1) to evaluate new bone formation among the 4-hexylresorcinol (4HR)-incorporated silk fabric membrane (SFM), conventional SFM, and uncovered control groups and (2) to compare the amount of residual membrane between the 4HR-incorporated SFM and conventional SFM in a rabbit parietal defect model. METHODS Nine New Zealand white rabbits were used for thi...

There is currently a gap in the literature that quantitatively describes complex bone microarchitecture within diploë (trabecular bone) and cortical layers of human calvarium. The purpose this study was to determine morphometric properties tables calvarium which key interacting factors sex, location on calvarium, sandwich structure were considered. Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) utilized ...
