Comparative study of MMP-2 (matrix metalloproteinase 2) immune expression in normal uterine cervix, intraepithelial neoplasias, and squamous cells cervical carcinoma

Article Abstract:

A study is undertaken to assess the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in the precursors lesions and in the invasive cervical carcinoma and to quantify the immune reactive expression of MMP-2 using MMP-2 immunohostochemistry, in intraepithelial neoplasias and in the invading cervical carcinoma.

Three-dimensional sonographic measurement of normal fetal brain volume during the second half of pregnancy

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to develop a three-dimensional (3D) brain volumemethod of measuring fetal brain volume. It was concluded that sonographic measurement of fetal brain volume demonstrated acceptable intraobserver variability and a nearly 10-fold increase during the second half of gestation.
