Abstract:
AbstractDisorders of sex development or “DSD” describe a heterogeneous group of abnormalities of sexual determination and differentiation. This may be caused by chromosomal as well as monogenic aberrations, which may lead either primarily or through endocrine mechanisms to abnormal sexual development. Laboratory investigations play an important role in the diagnostic process. However, special analytical methods have to be taken into account and the usual reference intervals do not apply. Therefore, laboratory results should be interpreted in a specialized center in context with clinical and im

In this regard, the issue of increasing the level of formation of physical education knowledge, an integral part of the cognitive component of personal physical education, is currently very relevant in the education system at all its levels.

Abstract:
Deep-sea sediments recovered from six sites visited during the International Arctic Ocean Expedition of 1991 were examined to determine sedimentation rates in the eastern Arctic Ocean basin. The dearth of age-diagnostic biogenic material in these sediments precludes the application of biostratigraphic methods, but ages can be deduced using paleomagnetism, in conjunction with measurements of radiocarbon and carbonate concentration. Although no one of these techniques gives an unambiguous determination of age, the interpretation most consistent with these diverse data implies that sedimentation

Primary mediastinal DLBCL represents a third, distinct entity. This classification was initially defined by gene expression profiling (GEP), which remains the gold standard for such determination. Determination of CoO will likely become the basis for patient selection for clinical trials of targeted therapies. Several algorithms and methods have been developed that use immunohistochemistry
