The spinal dura mater is a dense inelastic membrane which forms a loose sheath around the spinal cord. It is attached to the circumference of the foramen magnum, and the posterior surface of the bodies of the second and third cervical vertebrae. At the level of the second sacral vertebra it invests the filum terminale and descends to the posterior aspect of the coccyx, where it blends with the ...

abstract background: cervical cancer is the most common female genital tract malignancy and is the major cause of death from gynecologic cancer worldwide. the majority of cervical cancers develop through a series of gradual, precancerous lesions. screening asymptomatic women with regular pap smears allows diagnosis of the readily treatable preinvasive phase. we performed this study to determine...

introduction: the secondary genetic changes other than the pml-rara fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. chromosomal alterations and mutation of flt3 tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (aml). however, the prognostic significance of flt3 mutations in acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl) is not firmly established....

In this work, we investigate the transfer of some homological properties from a ring $R$ to its amalgamated duplication along some ideal $I$ of $R$ $Rbowtie I$, and then generate new and original families of rings with these properties.
