Intraosseous clear cell mucoepidermoid carcinoma: A case report and evaluation.

Salivary gland tumours are relatively uncommon, and there exists a considerable diagnostic difficulty owing to their diverse histological features in individual lesions and the presence of a number of types and variants, in addition to overlapping histological patterns similar to those observed in different tumour entities. One such group of variations is clear cell tumours of oral cavity which constitute an assorted group of lesions that may be odontogenic or metastatic or of salivary gland origin. The clear cell variant of mucoepidermoid carcinoma is at times misleading to the clinician because of its atypical location and innocent appearance.

Effect of Structurally Related Compounds on Desupersaturation Kinetics of Indomethacin.

Purpose: The pharmaceutical literature contains examples wherein desupersaturation from high concentrations does not proceed to equilibrium concentration of the thermodynamically most stable form but remains above equilibrium. The purpose of the current research was to investigate the effect of structurally related compounds on desupersaturation kinetics as a possible explanation for a higher than equilibrium solubility after crystal growth of γ-indomethacin (γ-IMC).

Methods: Three structurally related compounds (SRC) - cis-sulindac (c-SUL), trans-sulindac (t-SUL) and indomethacin-related compound-A (IMC-A) -were investigated.

Temporal Evolution of Signal Alterations in the Deep Gray Nuclei in term Neonates With Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Injury: A Comprehensive Review.

The deep gray nuclei are paired interconnected gray nuclei comprising the basal ganglia and thalami. Injury to the deep gray nuclei secondary to hypoxic-ischemic injury is associated with poor short- and long-term clinical outcomes. The signal changes following hypoxic-ischemic injury are dynamic and evolve over a period of time from injury to resolution.

Autoimmune rheumatic diseases in women with coronary microvascular dysfunction: a report from the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation-Coronary Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) project.

Background: While autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) have been linked with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), the relationship between ARD and CMD in women with signs and symptoms of ischemia and no obstructive arteries (INOCA) are not well described. We hypothesized that among women with CMD, those with ARD history have greater angina, functional limitations, and myocardial perfusion compromise compared to those without ARD history.

Methods: Women with INOCA and confirmed CMD by invasive coronary function testing were included from the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation-Coronary Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) project (NCT00832702).
