Abstract We describe the most frequent malignant intraocular tumors, conjunctival tumors and some lids and orbital tumors. Primary intraocular malignant tumors are retinoblastoma in children and uveal melanoma in adults. For uveal melanoma, the liver is the most frequent site of metastasis and this is why it is justified to prescribe liver ultrasonography every 6 months to these patients. Metastatic tumors can occur in the uvea and more frequently in the posterior part called the choroid. They are more frequent after breast cancer and lung cancer. Conjunctival tumors can be epithelial (benign papillomas and epidermoid carcinomas) or melanocytic (benign naevi and… More >

Abstract In order to solve the problems of low efficiency and heavy workload of tumor coding in hospitals, we proposed a Drools-based intelligent tumors coding method. At present, most tumor hospitals use manual coding, the trained coders follow the main diagnosis selection rules to select the main diagnosis from the discharge diagnosis of the tumor patients, and then code all the discharge diagnoses according to the coding rules. Owing to different coders have different familiarity with the main diagnosis selection rules and ICD-10 disease coding, it will reduce the efficiency of the artificial coding results and affect the quality of the… More >

Abstract The identification of brain tumors is multifarious work for the separation of the similar intensity pixels from their surrounding neighbours. The detection of tumors is performed with the help of automatic computing technique as presented in the proposed work. The non-active cells in brain region are known to be benign and they will never cause the death of the patient. These non-active cells follow a uniform pattern in brain and have lower density than the surrounding pixels. The Magnetic Resonance (MR) image contrast is improved by the cost map construction technique. The deep learning algorithm for differentiating the normal brain… More >

Abstract Epidemiological studies in human beings and experimental studies in laboratory animals suggest that milk and dairy products can inhibit effects on the development of some kinds of tumors. Cow milk contains sphingomyelin, butyric acid, conjugated linoleic acid, calcium, vitamin A, carotene and vitamin D. All of these components are known to inhibit the process of carcinogenesis. Our objective was to determine the effect of cow milk and water buffalo milk on the development of colon neoplasias in an experimental model of carcinogenesis in rats induced with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Three-month-old Wistar male rats with an average body weight of 180 g… More >

Abstract Wistar male rats, 3 months of age were given ad-libitum a nutritionally adequate diet and demineralized drinking water. The Molybdenum (Mo) and Tungsten (W) were provided in the drinking water at 200 ppm concentration. Intestinal tumors were induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) given subcutaneously as 16 weekly doses at 20 mg/kg body weight. Mo in the form of (NH₄)₆ Mo₇O₂₄ 4H₂O or W in the form of (Na₂ WO₄) were provided in the drinking water two months before the first DMH treatment and were continued during 4 months more until the last DMH treatment. Three months after the last carcinogen injection,… More >
