Molecular confirmation of histologic diagnosis has become mandatory for the diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT).

To validate the diagnosis made by morphology and immunohistochemistry (IHC) by fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) for EWSR1 rearrangement on formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues. Settings and…[Read more]

The number of adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) with atrial fibrillation (AF) is expected to increase. We sought to assess the impact of AF on survival in Korean ACHD.

Records of AF in ACHD were extracted from the records of the Korea National Health Insurance Service from 2006 through 2015. Multiple Cox…[Read more]

Although Bowman layer transplantation is the most studied technique, recent studies have described different options with very promising preliminary results. Mostly all the techniques described improve corneal curvature, visual acuity, pachymetry, contact lens tolerance, and foremost, manage to avoid or postpone corneal transplantation. Very few…[Read more]

Alloying selected layered transitional metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs) with unique chain-like structures offers the opportunities for structural, optical, and electrical engineering thus expands the regime of this class of pseudo-one-dimensional materials. Here, the novel phase transition in anisotropic Nb(1- x ) Tix S3 alloys is demonstrated for…[Read more]
