The connective tissue states that there is a predominance of type II fibers that increase…

In a Phase II trial with metastatic melanoma patients, 103 patients were randomized to two different doses of pidizilumab, 1.5 mg/kg or 6 mg/kg given every 2 weeks for a duration of 7 months. The objective response rate reported using immune-related response criteria (irRC) was 5.9 % for the entire cohort and 10 % for the cohort receiving 1.5 mg/kg. In addition, the overall survival was 65% at 12 months. The treatment was tolerated by the patients with only 4% affected by adverse events…

These stones also vary in size as in some cases, they are as small as grains or sometimes they are large as the size of a plum. In 80 percent…

Immunocytochemistry (ICC), which this lab is based on, is commonly used as a laboratory technique to anatomically observe the location of a specific protein or antigen in cells by the use of a specific primary antibody that binds to it. A staining reagent or chromagen is used to help detect certain proteins used in this experiment, called 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine (DAB). 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine (DAB) DAB, a derivative of benzene, is an organic compound, which is both chemically and thermodynamically…

My group and I had no clue what the Cyanea Kuhihewa was. We have found out that Cyanea Kuhihewa is critically endangered. It is not really to be found because it is a juvenile plant in 1997. Lowland wet forest with Metrosideros polymorphic, Dicranopteris. That is the problem that the Cyanea faces. Cyanea are extinct now since 2003 they caused a big problem in Hawaii hurricane in 1992.

Platelets and proteins in the plasma work jointly to halt the bleeding through forming a clot on the injury. However, some blood clots may be harmful. During some surgeries, doctors use medications to hinder the formation of blood clots. An example of a drug used is Heparin. Using Heparin poses some Heparin side effects. What are the side effects of heparin? Before thinking about…

Explain how atherosclerotic plaque is formed. Atherosclerosis is a disease of the large and intermediate sized arteries, where fatty lesions called atheromatous plaques develop on the inside surfaces of arterial walls. It is characterised by endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation and an accumulation of lipids, calcium, cholesterol, and cellular debris within the intima wall - making it a multifactorial disease that usually develops many years before manifestation of clinical symptoms.…
