INCIDENTAL PINEAL GLAND CYST IN GIRLS WITH EARLY ONSET OF PUBERTY

Incidental pineal gland cyst in girls with early onset of puberty

Abstract Background The causes of an early onset of puberty are still not clearly defined and may vary from subject to subject.In girls, even if 90% of early puberty is idiopathic, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain is performed to exclude secondary causes of precocious puberty, in particular pathological lesions as hypothalamic tumours

Antimicrobial Hypochlorous Wound Irrigation Solutions Demonstrate Lower Anti-biofilm Efficacy Against Bacterial Biofilm in a Complex in-vitro Human Plasma Biofilm Model (hpBIOM) Than Common Wound Antimicrobials

Biofilms pose a relevant factor for wound healing impairment in chronic wounds.With 78% of all chronic wounds being affected by biofilms, research in this area is of high priority, especially since data for evidence-based selection of appropriate antimicrobials and antiseptics is scarce.Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the ant

Evaluation of early-age shrinkage cracking behavior of partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement using restrained ring test

Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) has Dali 2 Touch Panel deficiencies such as high initial construction cost and irregular crack distribution.To address the shortcomings of CRCP, a rigid pavement structure called partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement (PCRCP) was proposed.Instead of reinforced concrete slabs in the field t
