Esophageal injury is a potential complication after intraoperative or percutaneous transcatheter ablation of the posterior aspect left atrium. Understanding spatial relations between esophagus and atrium essential to reduce risks.We examined by gross dissection course in 15 cadavers. We measured minimal distance esophageal wall endocardium with histological studies 12 specimens. To measure transmural thickness atrial wall, we sectioned another 30 human heart specimens sagittal plane at 3...
Research was undertaken on 200 individuals (100 males and 100 females) from the northern districts of Portugal, all Caucasian, between ages 20 59. Height bones were measured directly. Estimation stature is obtained by applying a mathematical method based multivariable linear regression height cadaver lengths humerus femur. Humerus full length; femur both physiological maximum lengths. Regression formulae tables for females are produced application in forensic anthropology when studying human...

Abstract John Cunningham virus (JCV) infects chronically human populations worldwide and probably might confer a higher risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). The prevalence of JCV DNA has been determined in normal colon mucosa compared it with different degrees lesions, as well viral presence the urine individuals study. was detected by nested‐PCR approach targeting small‐t antigen 100 healthy controls, patients undergoing biopsy diagnosis disorders. 40% from controls patients. also similar...
