background: although the imbalance of cytokines in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (hnscc) is well known, there is scarce data regarding its occurrence during dysplasia, before the malignant transformation. objective: to determine whether laryngeal dysplasia patients show a different cytokine profile than patients with cancer and healthy controls. methods: seventeen newly diagnosed, untre...

About 80% of paediatric intractable epilepsy patients have accompanying cortical dysplasia. However, there are no established methods for noninvasive detection of cortical dysplasia. This paper proposes a novel method for automatically detecting cortical dysplasia using paediatric MR images. In order to evaluate cortical dysplasia in MR images, texture features and fractal dimension were extrac...

Ectodermal dysplasia, which affects ectodemal derivatives, currently is an X-linked recessive inheritary hypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Patients with ectodermal dysplasia usually characterized by congenital teeth loss, abnormal teeth and inherited through female carriers. In this case report, we present a 5 years old boy of China ethnicity with mandibular anodontia, a rare dental dysplasia ...

Mongolia has high prevalence of H. pylori infection and gastric cancer. Early detection eradication can prevent the progression atrophy we reduce incidence cancer in our country. A Kyoto classification score 2 or more indicates a Endoscopic 4 might indicate risk. In this study compared consistency between advanced early cancer, grade dysplasia low-grade This is retrospective that included patie...

Current research highlighted the importance to recognize feasible biomarkers for early diagnoses and treatment in oral cancer. Our study analyzed expression spatial distribution of ALDH1A1, FGFR2, caspase-3, CD44 Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) leukoplakia with without mucosal dysplasia. Paraffin-embedded samples OSCC (n=5), (n=5) dysplasia obtained by incisional biopsies were processed usi...

Since the original description by Taylor, the term focal cortical dysplasia has been used to refer to a wide range of alterations of the cortical mantle. More recently, these conditions have been described from neuroimaging, neuropathological and genetic standpoints, generating several classifications. It is widely recognized that these classifications are unsatisfactory. We propose a simplifie...

This study represents a multiplex cytokine analysis of serum from a 10-month randomized, controlled trial of 238 subjects that investigated the effects of selenomethionine and/or celecoxib in subjects with mild or moderate esophageal squamous dysplasia. The original chemoprevention study found that, among those with mild dysplasia, selenomethionine treatment favorably altered dysplasia grade. T...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the justification of Croatian modification of Bethesda classification after thirteen years of its application, answering the question if the subclassification of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) into cervical intraepithelial lesion (CIN) grade 2 (CIN2) and grade 3 (CIN3) is cytologically real and clinically justified. The retrospective study...

Cortical dysplasia accounts for at least 14% of epilepsy cases, and is mostly seen in children. However, the understanding of molecular mechanisms and pathogenesis underlying cortical dysplasia is limited. The aim of this cross-sectional study is to identify potential key molecules in the mechanisms of cortical dysplasia by screening the proteins expressed in brain tissues of childhood cortical...

OBJECTIVES The objectives were to determine the prevalence of laryngeal dysplasia and associated human papilloma virus (HPV) subtypes in adult patients, 18 years or older, suffering from laryngeal papillomatosis at a tertiary care institution. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Patients with biopsy proven laryngeal papillomatosis were identified via chart review. All available...
