Cyst of the canal of Nuck in an adult female patient: A case report on surgical management.

Introduction: The cyst of the canal of Nuck is a rare cause of inguino-labial swelling in adult women, arising from an obliteration failure of the processus vaginalis during embryological development. Its rarity often leads to misdiagnosis and improper treatment. This article highlights its diagnosis and surgical management.

Experimental Lung Transplantation Related With HIF-1, VEGF, ROS. Assessment of HIF-1alpha, VEGF, and Reactive Oxygen Species After Competitive Blockade of Chetomin for Lung Transplantation in Rats.

Unlabelled: Primary graft failure occurs 15 to 30 % of the time after transplantation. Although there have been improvements in preserving the lungs in good condition, there have not been studies on the regulation of transcription factors.

Methods: We carried out an experimental study involving lung transplantation to indirectly evaluate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and VEGF expression by competitive blockade of HIF-1alpha with chetomin.

Bean-Syndrome in Maxillofacial District.

Bean syndrome (BS) is a rare congenital angiomatosis affecting multiple organ systems. The exact etiology is still not well-known. About 200 cases with heterogeneous clinical presentations have been reported worldwide.

Depurative capacity toward medium molecules of the dialyzer Toray NV-U Hydrolink™: A new hydrophilic membrane to perform online hemodiafiltration.

Introduction: New dialysis membranes with new properties are being developed to improve efficacy and tolerance. The hemocompatibility of a polymeric biomaterial is influenced by the layer of water at the blood membrane interface. The new dialyzer TORAY NV-U has a membrane Hydrolink™, designed to suppress platelet adhesion and to improve the hemocompatibility.

Assessing the opportunity for selection to impact morphological traits in crosses between two species.

Within biology, there have been long-standing goals to understand how traits impact fitness, determine the degree of adaptation, and predict responses to selection. One key step in answering these questions is to study the mode of gene action or genetic architecture of traits. The genetic architecture underlying a trait will ultimately determine whether selection can lead to a change in the phenotype.
