Breast Cancer Survival in Mongolian Women

D. Angarmurun, B. Batzorig, L. Undram, D. Gantuya, O. Chimedsuren, D. Avirmed

Cancer is becoming an important cause of mortality in developing country year by year. During last 10 years 5% of all cancer cases in Mongolian women were accounted for breast cancer. The aim of our study was to determine survival in women with breast cancer in Mongolia. The data of morbidity and mortality on breast cancer were collected retrospectively and were used to analyze stages of the cancer and survival from the time of di

Alcohol and Breast Cancer Incidence and Outcome: A Minireview of Literature

Rizwan Qamar, Mashhood A. Syed, Jonatahn Yin Amtul R. Carmichael

There is strong epidemiological evidence, based on 15 prospective studies, 10 meta-analyses, and 5 systematic reviews involving more than 2.2 million patients, that alcohol consumption is a contributing factor for the development of breast cancer. The evidence regarding the effect of alcohol consumption on breast cancer outcome needs to be gathered in order to draw firm conclusions regarding alcohol consumption after breast cancer diagnosis. In this article, we aim to revi

A Search for Factors that Predict the Efficacy of Viscosupplementation in Knee Osteoarthritis

R. Michelle Koolaee, H. Ralph Schumacher, Michael Shoemaker, Sarah Mooar, Sally Pullman-Mooar

Objective: Previous research demonstrates inconsistent effects of hyaluronate (HA) viscosupplementation on patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The purpose of this study was to evaluate factors that predict clinical response to a single intra-articular injection of Hylan GF-20. Methods: This was an observational study of 55 patients with knee OA, scheduled to receive intra-articular injections of Hylan GF-20. These patients met the institution’s guide

Behavior of Platinum Group during Their Pyrometallurgical Recovery from Spent Automotive Catalysts

Georgios Kolliopoulos, Efthymios Balomenos, Ioanna Giannopoulou, Iakovos Yakoumis, Dimitrios Panias

The behavior of platinum group metals (PGMs) during their recovery with smelting of spent automotive ceramic catalysts powder in the presence of metallic copper at elevated temperatures is studied in this paper. Two different metal recovery mechanisms proved to be active in this process: 1) Wetting of micro-dispersed particulates of PGMs in the slag by molten copper, formation of copper droplets with attracted microparticles of PGMs and settling of the m

Kinetics of Direct Reduction Titanomagnetite Briquette Produced from Rossetta-Ilmenite via Hydrogen

Naglaa Ahmed El-Hussiny, Atef El-Amir, Saied Thabet Abdel-Rahim, Khaled El hossiny, Mohamed El-Menshawi Hussein Shalabi

Reduction kinetics of titanomagnetite concentrate briquettes produced from Rossetta-llmenite ore via 1.5 liter/min hydrogen flow rate were investigated at different temperatures ranging from 600℃ to 950℃. It was found that the best reduction properties were found at 950℃, so the kinetic models shown by the briquettes at this temperature maybe: Diffusion control or Diffusion through ash layer (crank-cins

Preparation and Fire Test of Intumescent Powder Coatings

Heinrich Horacek

New regulations for hazardous air pollutants drove operations to compliant coatings. Powder coatings were the most popular choice. A screening of intumescent powder coatings was carried out comprising binders like thermoplastics as plasticised polyvinylchloride and polypropylene as well as non-cross linked thermosets as polyurethanes. Intumescence was achieved by addition of the intumescent ingredient bicyclopentaerythritol phosphate, by the intumescent

On the Pre-Exponential Factor Comparing in Thermoluminescence (TL) Theory

Eugenio Chiaravalle, Michele Mangiacotti, Claudio Furetta, Giuliana Marchesani, Michele Tomaiulo

The aim of the work has two folders: the first is to apply numerical and approximated methods to solve the integral comparing in the thermoluminescence theory, i.e. . The second point is to compare the influence of the two different ways of calculation on the values of the pre- exponential factor.

Scalp Reconstruction Using Integra, an Alternative to Free Tissue Transfer—Case Report

Victoria Fung, Richard L. Chalmers, Jenny L. C. Geh
We present a case of scalp reconstruction using Integra® and split skin grafting after extensive excision of melanoma in a previously irradiated field. Radical resection of malignancy and application of Integra®, a dermal substitute, was performed. Following histological confirmation of complete excision, a split-thickness skin graft (SSG) was applied. After 14 months the patient remains fully healed and without recurrence. The 2-stage use of Integra®...
