The length and structure of the transitional zone in the tunica media in the renal artery of adult male cats were investigated. In addition, the volume of the lumen and different layers in transitional and nontransitional zones in the right and left sides were also determined. Morphometrical, histological and stereological studies were performed on 16 renal arteries of 8 adult male cats. After ...

micropapillary variant of urothelial carcinoma (uc) of the bladder is an aggressive tumour, comprising 0.6-6% of all uc. it generally presents with high-grade and stage, and has been reported as having a worse prognosis when compared to traditional uc. we report the case of a 58-year-old man who presented with macroscopic haematuria. the patient was diagnosed with high-grade urothelial carcinom...

background and aims: immunohistochemical tests are one of the most important tests, which are under study to determine the prognosis of the cancers such as transitional cell carcinoma. by the time, flexible cystoscopy and urine cytology are the routine tests for following up the patients with transitional cell carcinoma, which are both operator dependent. on the other hand, cystoscopy is an inv...

Summary In this study, the seismic performance of hexagrid structures which are composed of horizontal and vertical hexagrid by using a transitional story, has been investigated. To this end, 10 models of 50-story hexagrid structures were designed. 9 models with horizontal hexagrid cells which transited to vertical cells using a transitional story, and a model of completely horizontal hexagrid ...

background: the present study was undertaken to investigate the correlation of epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr) expression with grade of transitional cell carcinoma (tcc). methods: tumor samples of 75 patients from mostafa khomaini hospital with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for expression of egfr. in this context, we assigned the bladde...

introduction: previous studies have indicated a relationship between mptp pore and av nodal rate-dependent properties. the aim of present study was to determine acute direct effects of cyclosporine on extracellular field potential of isolated rabbit av node during experimental atrial fibrillation. methods: in one group of male new zealand rabbits (1.5-2.5 kg) cumulative concentrations of cyclos...

BACKGROUND Great variability exists in the reported frequency of transitional vertebra in the general population as well as in symptomatic lumbar spine patients. OBJECTIVE To determine the occurrence rate of transitional vertebra in consecutive lumbar spine patients in our practice. DESIGN A prospective, observational study METHODS Plain films were viewed and the presence or absence of a ...

A transitional zone in the dog renal artery was documented and its parameters were recorded: length and volumes of the luminal wall, tunica intima, tunica media, and tunica adventitia—as well as these parameters in the nontransitional zone of artery. Twelve normal adult male dogs were studied. Th e specimens were processed in the routine manner for light and electron microscopy. Aft er the dete...

Herein, we address transitional actions class as a class between actions. Transitional actions should be useful for producing short-term action predictions while an action is transitive. However, transitional action recognition is difficult because actions and transitional actions partially overlap each other. To deal with this issue, we propose a subtle motion descriptor (SMD) that identifies ...
