Alterations of Hematologic and Hematopoietic Parameters in Mice Exposed to Pulsed Electromagnetic Field.

Effects of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on hematology and hematopoiesis might vary with different PEMF parameters. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possible effects of PEMF exposure at different pulses on hematologic and hematopoietic parameters in mice. Groups of male BALB/c mice were whole body exposed or were sham exposed (control) to PEMF at 100, 1000, and 10000 pulses.

Gorham disease of the mandible: a report of two cases and a literature review.

Gorham disease, a rare disorder of unknown etiology, is characterized by the clinical and radiologic disappearance of bone. Because the etiology is unknown, diagnosis is difficult. Therefore, radiographic manifestations play a vital role in the diagnosis of this disease.

Functional neovascularization in tissue engineering with porcine acellular dermal matrix and human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

Endothelial cells-matrix interactions play an important role in promoting and controlling network formation. In this study, porcine acellular dermal matrix (PADM) was used to guide human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) adhesion and proliferation as a potential system for vascularization of engineered tissues. We fabricated PADM using a modified protocol and assessed their composition and ultrastructures.

[Nonlinear analysis on the EEG information of rat epileptic model].

The aim of this study was to develop a new method of epileptic prediction using nonlinear dynamic theory. When rat was falling sickness, its EEG was researched by using approximate entropy and correlation dimension. The results showed the approximate entropy and correlation dimension during epileptic seizure are obviously lower than those before seizure and after seizure.
