... Abstract Pathology is the science of how a tissue changes during the process of the disease. The pathology is of important knowledge for understanding subsequent treatment concepts of a disease. In the cariology field, pathological features of caries are often presented using tooth sections...

... Abstract Yawning, laughing, and crying are normal physiological behaviors of humans in good health. As with all physiological behaviors, their deregulation can reveal disorders. Pathological yawning occurs in salvos of 10-20 successive yawns, and the number of yawns per day can exceed one...

... distinct pathological characteristics compared to that of extracranial arteries. Intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) had been understudied due to the relative inaccessibility of cerebral artery specimens under current treatment strategies. Acquiring post-mortem cerebral vessel specimens for histology...

.... This review focuses on four pathologic conditions in which remodeling leads to net loss of bone, postmenopausal osteoporosis, arthritis, periodontal disease, and disuse bone loss, which is similar to bone loss associated with microgravity. In most of these there is an acceleration of the resorptive process...

... or indirectly, the growth and migration of endothelial cells, in turn inducing the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting ones. Interestingly, neutrophil-derived cytokines can be involved either in physiological or in pathological angiogenesis, depending on either the functioning or dysregulation...

... through a variety of mechanisms and may contribute to the visual dysfunction experienced by diabetic patients. The fact that the morphological lesions correlate with functional pathology in diabetic patients is important for understanding how the disease leads to visual loss. Conclusions...

... dependsmore on the severity and topography of pathologic changes than on the presence of a qualitativemarker. However, several methodological problems such as selection biases, case-control design,density-based measures, and masking effects of concomitant pathologies should be taken intoaccount when...

... Abstract There is no international consensus for the pathological or clinical classification of IgAnephropathy (IgAN). This has limited international comparisons between outcome studieswhich use different histological classifications, and made it more difficult to identify appropriatepatients...

... Abstract In this paper, pathological aspects of diagnosis, classification, treatment strategy andinterstitial radiotherapy for craniopharyngiomas have been discussed and reviewed. The classificationbased on the location of squamous cell nests is useful for clinical evaluations and/orsurgical...

... Abstract Stereotactic radiosurgery is a controversial treatment modality in the management ofcerebral cavernous malformations (CVMs). Systematic pathological studies of irradiatedspecimens probably could help to resolve the controversy. Light microscopic investigation ofa surgically resected...

... Abstract Histopathological, ultrastructural and polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic examinationswere carried out on biopsy, cyst fluid, surgical pathology and autopsy specimensobtained from 7 cystic craniopharyngioma cases before and after yttrium-90 silicate colloid(90Y) irradiation. Light...

... treatment is a complex process and could be broadly categorizedinto three main pathological events, which at times might overlap: initial cytotoxicevents, inflammatory events and fibroproliferative events. Stress responses and heat shockproteins generated following cisplatin treatment are actively involved...
