Sedimentary Copper mineralization has been observed in Monj and Jolany locations in Bavanat (Sanandaj – Sirjan metamorphic belt). According to current study, the host rocks for copper mineralization in this area are green sandstones, generally in subarkose and arkose groups. Age of these sandstones is middle Jurassic. Copper mineralization is observed in two forms, sulfides form including chalc...

The exact nature of the -cell defect in type 2 diabetic patients is still unclear. -Cell mass reduction has been reported but remains controversial. A preliminary study of a large series of patients has demonstrated that in most, the -cell defect is not related to a decreased -cell mass. Amyloid deposits are observed in the islets of some type 2 diabetic patients but also in normoglycemic subje...

The pattern of amyloid deposits in the femoral head is described in four cases, two of which had deposits of amyloid related to age and two of which had generalised systemic amyloidosis (one of primary amyloidosis, one of multiple myeloma). The deposition of amyloid in the articular cartilage of the femoral head was similar in all four cases. Heavy deposits of synovial amyloid were identified i...

Sir, Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) and immunotactoid glomerulopathy (ITG) are well known glomerular diseases with Congo-red-negative deposits [1–4]. While FGN is characterized by randomly arranged microfibrils around 20 nm in diameter with no underlying systemic disorder, ITG is defined by orderly arranged microtubular deposits, usually >30nm in diameter with a hollow core; patients with ...

PURPOSE To study the clinical correlates of pattern of deposits over the lens in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) or pseudoexfoliation glaucoma. METHODS This retrospective observational study screened 346 patients with PXF seen in glaucoma clinic of a tertiary hospital from 2011-2013. Details like pattern of deposits, location on the lens surface and pupillary abnormalities in s...

Immunocytochemical methods were used to study the nature of the amyloid deposits in the Finnish type-familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) type IV, which is characterized by cranial neuropathy and corneal lattice dystrophy. Commercial antisera to human plasma transthyretin (prealbumin) did not stain the amyloid deposits, but in every case a positive staining was obtained with antibodies raised ...

御坂・巨摩山地に分布する御坂層群，西八代層群および櫛形山層群中の黒鉱鉱床は宝-笹子，万福-富里，茂倉-三里，御座石という4つの鉱床クラスターを形成しており，いずれも15〜13 Maに古伊豆弧上で海底熱水鉱床として生成した．最も調査が進んでいる西八代層群の層序でいえば，下限不明の古関川層の玄武岩溶岩/火砕岩類の直上に胚胎し，常葉層勝坂泥岩部層に整合的に覆われている．4つの鉱床クラスターは，藤野木-愛川構造線，糸魚川-静岡構造線，および一部逆転した褶曲帯が集中して見られる三沢川断層から距離にして1 km以内の場所に，それらとほぼ並行して線状に分布するという特徴を示している．
