Localized fibrous tumours of the pleura (or localized benign mesothelioma) are rare, and in most cases, asymptomatic. This report describes a 48 yr old female with a right-sided fibrous pleural tumour, which produced 171 L of transudate before a correct diagnosis was reached. The tumour was surgically removed and the transudation stopped immediately.

Endometriosis is found in 15% of reproductive age women and 1% patients have cutaneous manifestations. The pathogenesis the disease not entirely clear. prevailing theory suggests that endometrial cells are “seeded” into postoperative or, case umbilical endometriosis, physiologic scar. Other theories consider endometriosis a result pluripotent celomic cell proliferation or hematogenous lymphatic...

La présente contribution, croisant des perspectives de la (socio)linguistique et éthiques du care, explore un usage métaphorique verbe « lire » : elle repose sur le postulat que « nos corps sont à lire ». Elle soumet discussion l’hypothèse qu’une lecture « qui prend soin » (caring) peut permett...

INTRODUCTION Endoscopic, transnasal management of pituitary gland neoplasms is a widely accepted alternative to the traditional microscopic approach. This study aimed to determine outcomes and complication rates for the largest UK series of endoscopic, trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomies reported to date. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 136 primary resections and 35 revision ca...

[1] We measured the phonon density of states (DOS) of hexagonal close‐packed iron ("‐Fe) with high statistical quality using nuclear resonant inelastic X‐ray scattering and in situ X‐ray diffraction experiments between pressures of 30 GPa and 171 GPa and at 300 K, with a neon pressure medium up to 69 GPa. The shape of the phonon DOS remained similar at all compression points, while the maximum ...

اگرچه جهش اخلاقی در رمان و نقد ادبی دو دهه‌ی اخیر از سوی شماری منتقدین، فیلسوفان نظریه‌پردازان تصدیق می شود، اما همچنان ماهیت کم‌وکیف آن نامشخص است نیاز به ارزیابی تحلیلی ویژه دارد. این رو، مقاله بر تا چهارچوب جدیدی اخلاق را که حاکی گذر پسا‌مدرنیسم پساپسا‌مدرنیسم است، نماید. بدین منظور، قهرمانان مرزها (2016) اثر دیو اگرز، نویسنده‌‌ی معاصر آمریکایی، بررسی می‌شود. دنیایی به‌تصویر کشیده می‌شود مرد...
