Development of Histologically Verified Thyroid Diseases in Women Operated for Breast Cancer: A Review of the Literature and a Case Series
Background: The possible relationships between breast and thyroid diseases have been reported in the literature. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the occurrence of histologically verified thyroid pathologies in women who were diagnosed with breast cancer and, after mastectomy/quadrantectomy complemented by oncological treatment, were thyroidectomized based on their periodic thyroid evaluation. Patients and Methods: Our series consist of 31 women with a mean age of 62.9 ± 10.9 years (range, 45–81) treated for breast cancer (18 right-sided, 11 left-sided, and 2 bilateral), of whom 29 were thyroidectomized, since two women who developed Graves’ disease refused thyroi…
Effet de l'orientation des fibres des plis adjacents sur la résistance au délaminage en mode I pur = Effect of the fibre's orientation of adjacent ply on pure mode I fracture toughness
National audience; Ce travail concerne l'étude de l'effet de l'orientation des fibres des plis adjacents à la fissure dans une éprouvette DCB (Double Cantilever Beam) sur la résistance au délaminage en mode I pur. Afin d'isoler l'influence de l'orientation l'étude porte sur des stratifiés particuliers ayant tous les mêmes matrices de comportement global A B D. Les résultats expérimentaux montrent une grande variation de résistance au délaminage GIC et des courbes R selon l'orientation des plis situés de part et d'autre du plan de fissure. Une modélisation par éléments finis permet de mettre en évidence l'importance de l'état de contraintes locales et donc de l'endommagement au voisinage du …
Dominant Tree Species and Soil Type Affect the Fungal Community Structure in a Boreal Peatland Forest
ABSTRACT Boreal peatlands play a crucial role in global carbon cycling, acting as an important carbon reservoir. However, little information is available on how peatland microbial communities are influenced by natural variability or human-induced disturbances. In this study, we have investigated the fungal diversity and community structure of both the organic soil layer and buried wood in boreal forest soils using high-throughput sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. We have also compared the fungal communities during the primary colonization of wood with those of the surrounding soils. A permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) confirmed that the co…
