PICTORIALLY SPEAKING: ON VISUAL AND VERBAL PLAY ON THE COVERS OF POLISH WEEKLIES


IGF-1, IGFBP-1, and IGFBP-3 polymorphisms predict circulating IGF levels but not breast cancer risk: findings from the Breast and Prostate Cancer Cohort Consortium (BPC3).

IGF-1 has been shown to promote proliferation of normal epithelial breast cells, and the IGF pathway has also been linked to mammary carcinogenesis in animal models.We comprehensively examined the association between common genetic variation in the IGF1, IGFBP1, and IGFBP3 genes in relation to circulating IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels and breast cancer

Quantification of Residual Perfume by Py-GC-MS in Fragrance Encapsulate Polymeric Materials Intended for Biodegradation Tests

Perfume encapsulates are widely used in commercial products to control the kinetic release of odorant molecules, increase storage stability and/or improve deposition on different substrates.In most of the cases, they consist of core-shell polymeric microcapsules that contain fragrance molecules.A current challenge is to design and produce polymeric

One in five patients require conversion to arthroplasty after non-vascularized bone grafts in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a systematic review

Abstract Background Non-vascularized bone grafting (NVBG) has demonstrated to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).There are a number of articles updating the use of NVBG to treat the ONFH, but the percentage of patients subsequently undergoing a total hip arthroplasty (THA) is controversial.Methods Several electronic databases, including
