Aim: To investigate the efficacy of immunohistochemical methods to determine molecular subgroups and prognostic predictions of medulloblastomas (MBs).
Material And Methods: β-catenin, GAB1, YAP1, filamin A and p53 were immunohistochemically stained, and MYC and MYCN fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) procedures were applied to 218 cases in our series.
Results: Based on the histomorphological characteristics of the cases, 67.
Introduction: Humoral factors and neural mechanisms play a central role in the pathogenesis of obesity and in weight loss following bariatric surgery. Although various hormones and adipokines, including ghrelin and resistin, are linked to obesity, studies analyzing the changes in fasting ghrelin and resistin levels in patients following one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) are lacking.
Aim: The authors aimed to investigate resistin and ghrelin levels before and after two commonly used bariatric procedures with different mechanisms of action: sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and OAGB.

Various surgical techniques have been proposed to treat gingival recession. Well-designed trials with clinicianand patient-based parameters, evaluating the envelope connective tissue graft (E-CTG) and semilunar coronally advanced flap (SCAF) techniques are still needed.
