Methods for a new Quantitative Assessment involving Gravitropism and Position Treating an array of Herbaceous and also Woody Species.
77, 95% CI 1.30-2.42, P = 0.0003; the rate of acute leukemia transformation OR = 2.06, 95% CI 1.50-2.83, P  less then  0.00001). Furthermore, ASXL1 mutations were correlated with patients older than 65 years old, male, a lower level of platelet counts, and a higher risk of the international prognostic score system. These findings indicate that ASXL1 mutations have a significant adverse impact on the prognosis of PMF patients and may contribute to risk stratification and prognostic assessment for PMF patients.
Typical branching pattern of the left-sided aortic arch consists of the brachiocephalic trunk (BCT), the left common carotid artery (LCCA) and the left subclavian artery (LSA). Variant patterns have been associated with a broad spectrum of pathologies. The meticulous knowledge of potential aortic arch variants is of utmost importance to radiologists, interventional cardiologists, vascular and thoracic surgeons. The current systematic review collects all aortic arch branching patterns and their frequency as published by various cadaveric studies, calculates prevalence taking into account the gender and the different people background, as well. All extracted variant patterns are classified into types and subtypes according to the number of emerging (major and minor) branches (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) and to the prevalence they appear. In cases of similar prevalence, total cases were taken into consideration; otherwise the variants were classified under the title "other rare variants".

A systematic online search ofagnosis and treatment of aortic arch pathology. It could be also useful in anatomical education,as well.
No significant gender or ethnic differences exist among the 5 branching types. The proposed classification scheme aims to become a valuable and easy to use tool in the hands of all physicians involved in diagnosis and treatment of aortic arch pathology. It could be also useful in anatomical education, as well.The superficial temporal artery (STA) is a terminal branch of the external carotid artery. It is commonly described as coursing posterior to the mandibular condyle and over the posterior zygomatic root (PZR) and then dividing terminally into parietal and frontal branches. However, possible variations of the main trunk of the STA have seemingly been overlooked. This study retrospectively examined the archived head tomography angiograms of 43 patients to determine the morphology and topography of the STA prior to its terminal bifurcation. In 79% of patients, the STA topography related to the mandibular condyle was bilaterally symmetrical, either retrocondylar (65.1%) or laterocondylar (13.6%). The parietal branch was sometimes absent unilaterally (16.3%) or bilaterally (9.3%). In 2/43 cases, the frontal branch of the STA was unilaterally absent. When both terminal branches were present, the bifurcation was retrocondylar or immediately above the PZR when on the PZR, or the terminal division of the STA was high above the PZR. In 88.4% of the STAs, different patterns of kinking and coiling were documented, including retrocondylar kinks (27.9%), laterocondylar kinks (20.9%), kinks placed on the PZR (81.4%) and variably oriented suprazygomatic kinks (32.6%). Five of the 86 STAs were coiled, one retrocondylar, one laterocondylar, and three other placed on the PZR. Two cases showed unilateral pseudoaneurysms of the STA, one above the PZR and the other on the temporomandibular joint. The STA is surgically important; therefore, the number of anatomical studies of the STA should increase.
This study aimed to evaluate the relationships between chronic otitis media (COM) and the characteristics of Auditory tube (Eustachian) angle (ATa), tubotympanic angle (TTa), and Körner's septum (KS).

A retrospective research was conducted between January 2019 and October 2019. The computed tomography (CT) results and medical files of 210 patients were evaluated. According to CT results and medical files, the patients were evaluated regarding the presence of COM, KS, ATa, and TTa.

There were 113 (53.81%) males and 97 (46.19%) females in the study group, and the mean age of the patients was 42.05 ± 10.77years. The frequency of the KS was significantly higher in patients who were diagnosed with COM (35.66% vs. 7.41%, p < 0.001). The patients diagnosed with COM were found to have a narrower ATa and a wider TTa than the patients who were not diagnosed with COM. ATa was narrower and TTa was wider in patients with KS. The presence of KS and higher TTa value were considered as risk factors for COM (p < 0increased TTa and the presence of KS were associated with increased risk for COM.
The purpose of this study was to determine the palatal bone and soft tissue thicknesses using a miniscrew-supported maxillary skeletal expander (MSE) in Class III malocclusion.

The thicknesses of the palatal bone and soft tissue were measured in cone-beam computed tomography images obtained from 58 patients. All 20 points were crossing points between five levels, which were defined at 3mm intervals relative to the line connecting the central fossae of the first molar (Level 0), and 2mm and 4mm lateral to the anteroposterior reference line (AP line).

The palatal bone was significantly thicker in males than females in the anterior palate up to Level 0, while there was no significant sex-related difference in the posterior palate. There was a tendency for the thickness to decrease in the posterior direction, except in females at 2mm lateral to the AP line. see more The palatal soft tissue was significantly thicker in males than females in all positions. At 2mm lateral to the AP line, the palatal soft tissue thickness decreased in the posterior direction. A 4mm lateral to the AP line, it initially decreased in the posterior direction, and then increasing again at Level - 6 (6mm posterior of Level 0). As the lateral distance from the AP line increased, the palatal bone thickness decreased while the palatal soft tissue thickness increased.

These findings provide quantitative data on the palatal bone and soft tissue thicknesses for the miniscrew-supported MSE in the posterior palate.
