Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate long-term damage in the internal structures of the knee joints of recreational long-distance runners.
Materials And Methods: Ten years after their participation in a baseline study concerning their knee joints, seven long-distance runners and one who had given up long-distance running were invited to participate in a repeat magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) investigation. The same evaluation criteria and the same technical equipment were used, and the results of the two investigations were compared.

Objective: Although histologically benign, Grade I meningiomas can sometimes behave aggressively. The clinically-aggressive subset of Grade I meningiomas is typically indistinguishable from clinically-benign Grade I meningiomas in vivo. We compared molecular genetic and biochemical findings to clinical, pathological, and immunohistochemical information in a series of clinically-aggressive Grade I meningiomas with a series of clinically-benign meningiomas to identify characteristics that may be used to distinguish between these two groups.
