T-cell rich B-cell lymphoma of the breast: A rare case report with emphasis on the role of immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis

Primary breast lymphoma is one of the rare tumors that commonly presents as a lump with <0.5% incidence rate. It may be misdiagnosed as poorly differentiated carcinoma on routine fine-needle aspiration cytology. With appropriate treatment, this breast malignancy has a relatively better prognosis. Here, we report the case of a mammary T-cell rich B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma in a pre-menopausal woman diagnosed by biopsy and later confirmed by immunohistochemistry

The impact of women's social position on fertility in developing countries

This paper examines ideas about possible ways in which the extent of women's autonomy, women's economic dependency, and other aspects of their position vis-à-vis men influence fertility in Third World populations. Women's position or “status” seems likely to be related to the supply of children because of its links with age at marriage. Women's position may also affect the demand for children and the costs of fertility regulation, though some connections suggested in the literature are implausible. The paper ends with suggestions for future research.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/45660/1/11206_2005_Article_BF01124382.pd

Calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor associated with an odontome – a diverse lesion encountered

Chourasia Radheshyam,1 Bandyopadhyay Alokenath,2 Harish Kumar,2 Panda Abikshyeet2 1Shri Medishine Hospital, Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India; 2Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, Kalinga Institute of Dental Sciences, KIIT University, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India Abstract: The human jaw is an exclusive habitat for odontogenic lesions. Ghost cells associated odontogenic lesions are a diverse group with a variety of presentations in the jaws. Calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor is a benign cystic neoplasm of odontogenic origin which demonstrates ghost cells in the epithelial component. This tumor sometimes mimics the features of a cyst clinically and radiographically, but histopathologically as well as behavior-wise shows the features of a tumor. Many classification systems have been proposed and revised from time to time. Presently a dualistic concept is highlighted to classify this group of lesions. The present case highlights a case of calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor associated with a complex composite odontome, which appeared like a cyst clinically and radiographically. Keywords: calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor, calcifying odontogenic cyst, odontome, ghost cel

Effect of Mn doping on the specific heat of the high T-C superconductor REBa2Cu3Oy (RE = Y, Gd)

We present measurements of specific heat in Mn-doped compounds REBa2(Cu1-xMnx)(3)O-y (RE = Y and Gd) with 0 <= x <= 2%. It is found that the transition temperature of Mn-doped YBa2(Cu1-xMnx)(3)O-y (YBaCuMnO) compounds does not change appreciably. On the other hand, in the case of GdBa2(Cu1-xMnx)(3)O-y (GdBaCuMnO) samples, the transition temperature decreases noticeably with the increase in Mn concentration. In REBaCuMnO, a jump in specific heat at the superconducting transition was observed for a low concentration of Mn; however, only a small change in slope was noticed for Mn concentrations above 1%. Replacing 0.5% Cu by Mn has only a marginal effect on the transition temperature, but a three-fold Suppression of the specific heat jump is observed with such a Substitution. This finding clearly demonstrates that these constituents are being incorporated into the superconductors as a whole and Hot in the form of a local cluster

Impact of Potassium Inoculants and Biotite on Soil Microbial Population and Enzymatic Activity under Maize (Zea mays L.) Cultivation in Gangetic Plains

The study explores the impact of potassium inoculants and black mica on soil microbial populations and enzymatic activity in maize cultivated soils. Microbial communities fueled by root exudates play essential roles in nutrient cycling, plant health, and soil structure. This study investigates the effects of potassium-solubilizing bacteria (KSB) and mineral potassium on microbial populations and enzymatic activity across different growth stages of maize. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with 14 treatments, including combinations of KSB isolates, mineral potassium, and inorganic potassium. Microbial populations (bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and KSB) were quantified using serial dilution and plating techniques. Enzymatic activities (dehydrogenase, phosphatase, and urease) were assessed to understand nutrient interactions and microbial influences. The findings indicate that all treatments exhibited increased microbial populations compared to the control. Notably, treatment 75% recommended potassium dose + 25% potassium from Biotite + OVPS 05 consistently demonstrated the highest microbial growth. The presence of KSB appeared crucial in enhancing bacterial and fungal populations. Additionally, enzymatic activities were significantly influenced by treatments, with 75% recommended potassium dose + 25% potassium from Biotite + OVPS 05 showing the highest dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, and urease activities. These results suggest that the combination of KSB isolates and mineral potassium contributes to enhanced microbial populations and soil enzymatic activities, offering insights into sustainable agriculture practices that balance productivity and soil health. The study sheds light on the intricate relationships between microorganisms, nutrients, and soil biochemical processes, providing valuable guidance for future agricultural strategies

Novel outlook to analyzing a gap between industrial and institutional skills at students in the faculty of engineering and natural sciences

In today’s scenario, Information Technology industries are compromising their expectations to fulfil the requirement of fresher candidates due to non-availability of job ready students. Industry invests huge cost to train the recruited manpower and make them ready for the on-job work. In this research paper, the researcher identified engineering graduate students’ employability skill sets and validated with the support of data provided by the students’ institute. All skills were grouped into four categories on the similarity and characteristics for the research work i.e., Aptitude, Communication, Technical and Personality skills set. Primary data was collected by using pen &amp; paper test and secondary data was collected by using questionnaires method. The analysis of collected samples was carried out by using Software Package of Social Sciences (SPSS10).&nbsp; The researcher compared the expected performance by stakeholders and actual students’ performance in the designed test. Recruiters were unsatisfied on communication and technical skill sets from recruited engineering students in campus placement recruitment process. All technical institutes need to focus on employment skill sets from the first year to raise their employment possibilities
