The overall recognition accuracy was 93.13% and the average recognition time was 1.5 s using Matlab. The recognition accuracy and performance were superior to previously associated studies. The results demonstrate the potential of the proposed methods for real-time application to weed recognition. (C) 2011 lAgrE. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.”
“A dentinogenic ghost cell tumour (DGCT) is an extremely rare odontogenic tumour which is considered as a solid, neoplastic variant of GSK2126458 calcifying
odontogenic cyst. Intraosseous DGCTs are more aggressive than extraosseous DGCTs and have a high propensity for local recurrence. This report describes a case of a diagnosis of recurrent DGCT at the primary site and a distant donor site. A 25-year-old female patient visited a dental hospital for a complaint of facial swelling for the previous month. Incisional biopsy was performed and the specimen was diagnosed as DGCT. Partial mandibulectomy for tumour resection and iliac bone graft was performed. 2 years later, the tumour recurred on the mandible and iliac bone. The recurrent lesion on the donor site was diagnosed as metastasized DGCT. This report highlights the possibility of distant metastasis occurring at a graft donor site.”
“Docetaxel lipid microsphere (DT-LM) is a novel formulation of docetaxel without Tween-80. A sensitive, robust and reproducible ultrafiltration
(UF) followed by UPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the quantification of unbound docetaxel in human plasma using paclitaxel as IS. Ultrafiltrate Go 6983 cell line samples were chromatographed on Acquity UPLC BEH C-18 column (50 mm x 2.1
mm, 1.7 mu m). The mobile phase was a mixture of 10 mM ammonium formate in water containing 0.2% formic acid (A) and acetonitrile containing 0.2% formic acid (B). The volume of plasma utilized was only 450 mu l. mTOR target The calibration curve was linear over the range of 0.2-200 ng/mL, with LLOQ of 0.2 ng/mL. The method was shown to be reliable and reproducible with intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy smaller than +/- 15%, and extraction recovery of 98.1-104.8%. Docetaxel was stable during stability studies, e.g., short term, post-preparation and freeze-thaw cycles. The validated method was utilized to support the pharmacological study of DT-LM in patients with advanced cancer. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.”
“OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to compare the normal ligamentous anatomy of the trapeziometacarpal joint in cadavers on conventional MRI and MR arthrography and review the most common diseases and abnormalities that affect this articulation.\n\nMATERIALS AND METHODS. MR images of seven trapeziometacarpal joints of seven fresh cadaveric hands were obtained before and after arthrography. The MR appearances of the ligaments around the trapeziometacarpal joint were analyzed and correlated with corresponding anatomic sections.
