Abstract Large explosive volcanic eruptions from island arcs pour pyroclastic currents into marine basins, impacting ecosystems and generating tsunamis that threaten coastal communities infrastructures. Risk assessments require robust records of such highly hazardous events, which is challenging as most the products lie buried under sea. Here we report discovery by IODP Expedition 398 a giant rhyolitic pumice deposit emplaced 520 ± 10 ky ago at water depths 200 to 1000 m during...
Abstract Caldera-forming eruptions of silicic volcanic systems are among the most devastating events on Earth. By contrast, post-collapse activity initiating new caldera cycles is generally considered less hazardous. Formed after Santorini’s latest caldera-forming eruption ~1600 bce , Kameni Volcano in southern Aegean Sea enables eruptive evolution a recharging multi-cyclic to be reconstructed. Kameni’s record has been documented by onshore products and historical descriptions mainly...
Aberrant crypt foci (ACF), putative preneoplastic lesions, are early morphological changes induced by the colon carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM). Although inbred mice differ markedly in their susceptibility to AOM carcinogenesis, we have previously shown that ACF develop both resistant and sensitive mouse strains after treatment. The purpose of this study was examine sequential development identify characteristics distal mice. A/J (highly susceptible), SWR/J (relatively susceptible) AKR/J...
Unintentional parathyroidectomy during thyroidectomy has been evaluated in a few studies. Moreover, the impact of surgeon's experience and operative technique not evaluated. Our aim was to identify incidence unintentional total thyroidectomy, its clinical consequences, factors affecting occurrence.We reviewed all thyroidectomies 2-year period. Patients were categorized into 2 groups: those with (parathyroidectomy group) without (no-parathyroidectomy group).Incidental occurred 100 (19.7%) 508...
A randomized, placebo-controlled, quadruple-blind trial was performed to evaluate the effect of oral administration antioxidant combination Spermotrend® for three months on semen quality in infertile men with at least one abnormal variable analysis. Eighty were randomized between 2019 and 2022, receiving either (n = 40, spermotrend-group) or placebo placebo-group). Although a total 80 patients enrolled study, final data is only from 70 patients. The primary outcome measure sperm motility...
Primary splenic angiosarcoma is a rare neoplasm of vascular origin carrying very poor prognosis, partly due to its high metastatic potential. This disease presents frequently with rupture and hemorrhage. We report the case 17-year-old woman who presented primary angiosarcoma.The patient diffuse abdominal pain distention. Clinical examination revealed severe tenderness in left upper quadrant, palpable mass, hemodynamic instability systolic arterial blood pressure 75 mmHg heart rate 135 beats...
On 30 October 2020, a strong earthquake of magnitude 7.0 occurred north Samos Island at the Eastern Aegean Sea, whose mechanism corresponds to an E-W normal fault dipping north. During aftershock period in December hydrographic survey off northern coastal margin was conducted onboard R/V NAFTILOS. The result detailed bathymetric map with 15 m grid interval and 50 isobaths morphological slope map. morphotectonic analysis showed zone running along 30–50° slope, forming half-graben structure....
Adequate lymph node evaluation is an important determinant of prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer. Current guidelines recommend at least 12 nodes; however, a significant number fail to meet these criteria.To investigate the factors that influence adequate recovery and nodes cancer.We retrospectively analyzed 454 consecutive cases cancer surgically treated from September 2000 2006. Univariate multivariate linear logistic regression analysis was used study effect various recovery.The...
Abstract Hemodialysis patients present with a broad spectrum of specific and nonspecific skin disorders, which rarely coexist. We report an exceptional case hemodialysis patient that developed acquired reactive perforating collagenosis pseudoporphyric bullous dermatosis on the basis common disorders include hyperpigmentation, pruritus, xerosis cutis, Linsday's nails. Interestingly, our presented two unusual but distinctive cutaneous dermopathies background other commonly seen alterations....
Metastases of melanoma to the urinary bladder are infrequent. Even rarer metastases from uveal melanoma, with only 3 cases published in literature so far. Herein we present a case 77-year-old male patient who presented metastatic bladder. The patient’s history included diagnoses treated radiation 25 years ago, as well that cutaneous diagnosed 7 ago. molecular study tumor specimen identified mutation GNAQ gene, which has been suggested be an early event pathogenetic course over 80% melanomas....
Parathyroid carcinoma represents an extremely rare neoplasm with diverse clinical manifestations which vary from asymptomatic patients to severe complications of hypercalcemia or parathyrotoxicosis while skeletal involvement is rather common. Herein we aimed at presenting a unique case young patient aggressive parathyroid cancer that initially were misdiagnosed. Ossification the cervical ligamentum flavum and skull tumor illustrates erosive bonny lesions hyperparathyroidism in association...
The integration of digital media into the curricula design and architecture schools raises important pedagogical questions as to what kind technical skills critical thinking should designers future interactive systems have how these mindsets be cultivated. This paper argues for a model intelligent environments that sees architects engineers, humanists, system thinkers, researchers. presents ideas through case new graduate course introduces design, prototyping, programming evaluation physical...
Chromophobe RCC (ChRCC) carries the best prognosis among all subtypes, yet it lacks a proper grading system. Various systems have been suggested in past, causing much controversy, and Avulova et al. recently proposed promising four-tier system that takes into consideration tumor necrosis. Dysregulation of mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR) pathway plays key role ChRCC pathogenesis, highlighting its molecular complexity. The present retrospective study aimed to evaluate prognostic factors...
Abstract Study question Is sperm quality improved in infertile men after administration for three months of a combination antioxidants as compared to placebo? Summary answer Administration placebo does not improve quality. What is known already In men, limited evidence exists support treatment with improving A recent Cochrane meta-analysis suggested that these patients combinations or no results an increase motility (MD + 12.71 95%CI +11.33 14.08, 7 studies, 684 patients), while beneficial...
