Abstract Description of the content of simple bone cyst (SBC) has been controversial. This study aimed to evaluate and give a clearer picture of the contents of the SBC cavity. Nineteen patients SBC confirmed by histopathological examination, between 2014 and 2016, were included in this study. The clinical, radiographic, surgical and laboratory findings of SBC cavity content was analyzed. For statistical analysis, paired samples t-test was used to evaluate the difference of components among cavity fluid, blood and serum. All 19 SBC cases radiographically and surgically revealed a fluid-filled cavity. The average age of the patients was 21.3±13.2 years. Any sex predominance was not found. SBCs were more often found in the anterior mandible site (n=12, 63.2%). All lesions were filled with clear straw-colored or low concentrated blood-colored flood. Although the laboratory analysis of the fluid showed components similar to those in blood and serum, the statistical analysis showed that the fluid components were not significantly different only for eosinophils (p = 0.43) and basophils (p = 0.06) counts as blood components, and sodium (p = 0.76), potassium (p = 0.08) and chloride (p = 0.13) concentration as serum components. Within a limitation of this study, the results shows that SBC is fluid-filled cavity and the cavity fluid is more likely similar to the serum rather than the blood regarding the internal components.

ABSTRACT Patients presenting with prolonged ankle pain following trivial trauma should be clinically and radiologically investigated. We present two young adults with incidentally diagnosed lytic lesion of talus. They underwent extended curettage and biopsy. Histopathological examination proved as aneurysmal and simple bone cyst and went for a secondary procedure of bone grafting. We want to emphasize the importance of differential diagnosis in the management of lytic lesions and complete removal of tumor. How to cite this article Senthil V, Pandey V, Acharya K.

Background/Objectives: This study investigated differences in the attitude of users according to type of scarcity message and price discount conditions to compose T-commerce sales messages and search for effective strategic plans. Methods/Statistical analysis: This study empirically verifies the difference in promotion attitude and purchase intention between the type of T-Commerce scarcity message (quantity limit message / time limit message) and the price discount policy (price discount / non-discount) message. For this purpose, 2 (scarcity type: limited quantity, limited time) X 2 (with or without price discount: price discount, no price discount) factor design between subjects was used.

Simple bone cyst (SBC) of the jaws is uncommon, representing approximately 1% of all jaw cysts. It is often accidentally discovered on routine dental examination as it is asymptomatic in most of cases. In this report, we discuss a case of SBC in a 16 years old female who presented in our department for correction of her mal-aligned teeth. On routine x-ray for orthodontic treatment, a well defined, unilocular radiolucent area approximately 3x1cm in size with scalloped borders on the left body of mandible expanding from distal surface of 34 to distal surface of 37 was discovered. Surgical exploration was required for both diagnostic and definitive treatment. The operative finding was hollow cavity without any epithelial lining.

1. A survey and. statistical analysis of the records of litters born in the N.I.R.D. herd of Large White pigs over a period of 16 years are presented.2. The mean length of gestation was 114 days for both gilts and sows.3. The mean numbers of pigs born alive and born dead per litter from gilts, 10·0 and 0·2 respectively, were both significantly smaller than the corresponding figures for sows, 11·8 and O·8. No seasonal differences were found.4. The mean total losses of pigs from birth to weaning at 8 weeks were 29·5% of pigs born alive. The losses in litters from gilts, 23·0%, were significantly smaller than in litters from sows, 31·0%. The losses during the winter months both for gilts, 32·5%, and for sows, 35·9%, were significantly higher than during the summer months, 19·4% and 26·7% for gilts and sows respectively.5. Over 50% of the total losses were due to crushing by the dam, 74·1% of the losses from this cause occurring during the first 48 hr. after birth.6. The mean number of pigs weaned per litter was 8·0. The difference between the number weaned per litter from gilts, 7·7, and per litter from number of pigs was weaned per litter from sows during the summer months, 8·7, than during the winter months, 7·4.7. There was no significant difference between the number of male and of female pigs weaned.8. The mean weight at weaning was 29·9 lb., male pigs, 30·3 lb., being significantly heavier than females, 29·51b. Pigs in litters from gilts, 27·81b., were significantly lighter at weaning than those from sows, 30·0 lb., and for both gilts and sows, pigs reared during the summer months, 29·7 and 31·8 lb. respectively, were significantly heavier than those reared during the winter months, 25·9 and 28·2 lb. respectively.

Objectives. To evaluate the role of angiogenesis tumor marker CD31 in the detection of precancerous and cancerous cervical lesions and to compare its efficacy with colposcopy and histopathology. Materials and Methods. 230 patients with a suspicious looking cervix and an abnormal Pap smear attending the Outpatient Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of GSVM Medical College were subjected to a colposcopic examination. 180 patients with suspected colposcopic findings were subjected to a colposcopic directed biopsy. Biopsy tissues were sent for histopathological examination out of which 50 biopsied samples were sent for immunostaining of CD-31. Statistical analysis was done. Results. Comparison of microvessel density (MVD) count by haematoxylin and eosin staining (HE) and immunostaining of CD31 in preinvasive group were and , respectively, and in invasive group were and , respectively, which showed that MVD was higher by CD31 both in preinvasive and invasive group, and it was statistically significant. Conclusion. Angiogenesis is a marker of tumor progression, and CD31 fixes up vessel better as compared to HE, so aggressiveness of the tumor can be better predicted by MVD-CD31 as compared to MVD-HE.

AbstractPurpose. The aim of the study was to determine differences in anteroposterior spine curvatures between futsal players, soccer players, and non-training students. The results may contribute to the development of present-day knowledge of posturometry, and its implementation in training can help reduce the risk of body posture disorders in athletes. Methods. The examined group consisted of 48 athletes and 38 non-training college students. Body posture parameters were measured with the use of Posturometr-S. The normality of distribution was checked with the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the differences between the groups were measured with ANOVA and the Bonferroni post-hoc test. The level of statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results. The analysis of angle values revealed the widest and most similar measurements in the group of futsal players and soccer players. The analysis of variance proved statistically significant differences between the soccer players and futsal players (p = 0.003). The difference between the soccer players and non-training students was statistically significant. The highest γ angular value was measured in non-training students, followed by futsal players and soccer players. The statistical analysis revealed significant differences between the non-training students and futsal players, as well as non-training students and soccer players (p < 0.001). Conclusions. A complex assessment of athletes’ body posture is crucial in injury prevention. Training overloads may often lead to disorders of the organ of locomotion and affect the correct body posture in athletes. This, in turn, may result in pains and injuries.
