Sarcoidosis and Tuberculosis
The material of cell biopsies taken from indolent, nonirritated enlarged lymph nodes in the neck or axilla that have developed with little in the way of clinical symptoms, or from subcutaneous infiltration in various re- gions, can be quite homogeneous.[r]

CHAPTER 4
Cephalometric radiography, introduced by Broadbent and Hofrath in 1931, allows orthodontists, maxillo- facial, craniofacial and plastic surgeons to diagnose the patient’s craniofacial morphology and growth and enables them to plan, monitor and evaluate the appro- priate treatment. T[r]

A sample of capillary blood may be taken when there are no further tests that would require venous access for a larger sample volume. A well- perfused fingertip or an earlobe is ideal; in newborns or young infants, the heel is also a good site. If the circulation is poor, the blood flow can b[r]

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Related Diseases
A chronic lymphadenoma, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia, can some- times be clinically diagnosed with some certainty. An example is the case of a patient (usually older) with clearly enlarged lymph nodes and signifi- cant lymphocytos[r]

Acute hypotension. Failure of or- thostatic regulation. A change from the recumbent to the erect position (ortho- stasis) will cause blood within the low- pressure system to sink towards the feet because the veins in body parts below the heart will be distended, despite a re- f[r]

Androgens, Anabolic Steroids, Antiandrogens
Androgens are masculinizing substanc- es. The endogenous male gonadal hor- mone is the steroid testosterone from the interstitial Leydig cells of the testis. Testosterone secretion is stimulated by hypophyseal luteinizing hormone (LH)[r]

The chlamydia presents a different clinical picture in developed societies where it is benign and affects the genitals as well as the eye and is called TRIC (trachoma inclusion conjunctivitis).
The clinical features vary considerably. At the initial stage, it may be asymptomatic, or may present wi[r]

Griseofulvin originates from molds and has activity only against derma- tophytes. Presumably, it acts as a spin- dle poison to inhibit fungal mitosis. Al- though targeted against local mycoses, griseofulvin must be used systemically. It is incorporated into newly formed keratin. “Imp[r]

4.3.1. Scaling Effects
A general design paradigm in the development of microsystems is “scale-down”. As a characteristic length becomes smaller and approaches the sub-millimeter scales, forces and physical effects that are often insignificant at macroscopic scales become very important, of[r]

Study protocol
In a mock cardiac arrest scenario, the students were evaluated on a manikin (ResusciAnne ® ; Laerdal, Stavanger, Norway). After randomization, 118 students were tested on an AED in automatic mode, and 118 were tested on a semiautomatic AED. The device was kept in its usual standby m[r]
