Does ulinastatin alone reduce caspase 3-mediated apoptosis in protease-positive Aeromonas hydrophilia-induced sepsis?
PPAH-induced sepsis has a high mortality that is related to lymphocyte apoptosis. Ulinastatin alone does not significantly reduce caspase 3-mediated lymphocyte apoptosis.
Malignancies presenting as calcifications on mammography are most commonly DCIS. When invasive malignancies presented as calcifications, the calcifications were associated with accompanying high-grade DCIS, and the invasive cancers were often Her2/Neu positive. Mammographic masses with calcifications were associated with lymphatic invasion. Excisional biopsy margins were most commonly positive with architectural distortions. The mammographic appearance of nonpalpable malignancies is related to pathologic characteristics with prognostic value, which varies with patient age and influences clinical management.
