Introduction: Acromegaly in the course of a pituitary microadenoma or neuroendocrine GHRH-secreting tumour (GHRH, growth hormone-releasing hormone) invisible on MRI is very rare. Objective: To present the difficulties in determining the cause behind an excessive production of the growth hormone in a patient suffering from long-standing acromegaly, without a pituitary focal lesion that would be visible...
Noble metal nanoparticles exhibit strong absorption bands, which known as the surface plasmon resonances, result in strong absorption and scattering, and create an enhanced local electromagnetic field near-to the surface of the particles. The surface plasmon resonances are highly dependent on the size and the shape of the metal and the dielectric properties of the surrounding medium. These near field...
In recent years, there has been a growing interest among the scientific community in the modification of the fluorescence properties of dyes near metallic surfaces. It has been well established that the brightness of fluorophores significantly increases at close proximity to silvered surfaces (deposited colloids or islands) [1-6]. This effect is accompanied by dramatically decreased lifetimes, indicating...
Fluorescence experiments are typically performed in sample geometries that are large relative to the size of the fluorophores and relative to the absorption and emission wavelengths. In this arrangement the fluorophores radiate into free space. Most of our knowledge and intuition about fluorescence is derived from the spectral properties observed in these free-space conditions. However, the presence...
Wstęp. Objawy uboczne mogą wystąpić po zastosowaniu niemal wszystkich znanych leków. Cel pracy. Ocena częstości reakcji nadwrażliwości na środki farmaceutyczne w wywiadzie w grupie pacjentów leczonych ambulatoryjnie oraz identyfikacja substancji najczęściej je powodujących. Materiał i metody. Przeanalizowano dokumentację leczenia ambulatoryjnego pacjentów pod względem reakcji nadwrażliwości na leki...
The present article is an attempt to analyse House Mother Normal – a littleresearched novel by the British experimental novelist B. S. Johnson. Starting with a general discussion of the author’s literary tenets, the analysis then focuses on the novel at hand, special emphasis being given to the ways in which it maintains continuity with Johnson’s previous works, as well as to the areas in which divergence...
