Background Prognostic factors in malignant melanoma are currently based on clinical data
and morphologic examination. Other prognostic features, however, which are not yet used in …

Introduction: Fractality is omnipresent in medicine and life sciences. In particular, the fractal
principle is found simultaneously at different organization levels of the cell nucleus. The aim …

Haemaphysalis longicornis, the Asian longhorned tick (ALT), is native to eastern Asia, but it
has become invasive in several countries, including Australia, New Zealand and recently in …

The fractal nature of the DNA arrangement has been postulated to be a common feature of
all cell nuclei. We investigated the prognostic importance of the fractal dimension (FD) of …

Background The use of computerized image analysis for the study of nuclear texture features
has provided important prognostic information for several neoplasias. Recently fractal …

A concentric-cylinder flow-birefringence instrument is used to generate sufficient shear
fields to break T2 DNA (M = 1.2 × 10 8 ) and E. coli DNA (M = 2.5 × 10 9 ) in dilute solution. …

The present work reports the synthesis, characterization and properties of magnetic iron oxide
nanoparticles for biomedical applications, correlating the nanoscale tunabilities in terms …

Objective: There is no consensus for grading when more than one grade is present in bladder
carcinoma. We propose a grading system that considers the primary (most common) and …

White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are an abundant mammal with a wide geographic
distribution in the United States, which make them good sentinels for monitoring arboviral …

Nuclear characteristics are important for the differential diagnosis between benign or malignant
neoplasias. Subjective interpretation by an observer, however, may cause diagnostic …
