Diagnosis and treatment of ectopic cesarean scar pregnancy has become a challenge for contemporary obstetrics. With an increase in the number of pregnancies concluded with a cesarean section and with the development of transvaginal ultrasonography, the frequency of cesarean scar pregnancy diagnoses has increased as well. The aim of the study is to evaluate various diagnostic methods (ultrasonography in particular) and analyze effective treatment methods for cesarean scar pregnancy. An

Cesarean sections account for approximately 20% of all deliveries worldwide. In Poland, the percentage of women delivering by cesarean section amounts to over 43%. According to studies, the prevalence of cesarean scar defects ranges from 24–70%. Due to the overall cesarean section rate, this is a medical problem affecting a large population of women. In such cases, ultrasonographic evaluation of a cesarean scar reveals a hypoechoic space filled with postmenstrual blood, representing a

junctions. Finally, the regenerated fiber contains a small amount of well-organized scar tissue. At 10 days after injury, scar maturation is complete; however, it takes weeks to months to return to pre-injury muscle strength(2,6). The physiological process of muscle healing is enhanced by short-time immobilization at first, which allows the granulation tissue to become strong enough, and later by gradual physical activity, which intensifies the regeneration phase by inducing angiogenesis and correct

Introduction
The presence of ectopic functional endometrial glands and struma anywhere except in the lining of the uterine cavity is considered as endometriosis. The most common sites of endometriosis inside the pelvic cavity include the myometrium (adenomyosis), the ovaries, the uterine ligaments, and the pouch of Douglas. Extrapelvic endometriosis is seen involving the abdominal wall cesarean section (CS) scar, and rarely affects the perineum, umbilicus, pleura, kidneys, lungs, and liver(1

We found a severe infestation of M. enterolobii in guava in Coimbatore district of Tamil Nadu, India (located at N11°1′6″ and E76°58′21″); and the identity of the species was confirmed by detailed morphology and morphometrics supplemented with biochemical and molecular

to reinstate plasticity in order to allow axonal sprouting and compensation of damaged function (Carmichael et al., 2017). On the other hand, injuries to the central nervous system (CNS) result in upregulation of CSPGs in glial scar, which potently hinders neural plasticity and regeneration (McKeon et al., 1999; Beggah et al., 2005; Harris et al., 2009). For a comprehensive review of CS and CSPGs role in CNS plasticity see Bartus et al. (2012). CSPGs and PNNs have been also suggested to have

Spinal cord injury leads to a robust inflammatory response that is an unfavorable environment for stem cell implantation. In this study, we evaluated the effect of combined therapy of curcumin and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) on behavioral recovery and tissue sparing, glial scar formation, axonal sprouting and inflammatory responses in a rat experimental model of spinal cord injury (SCI). Balloon-induced compression lesion was performed at thoracic (Th8-9) spinal level. Out of the four groups

-inoculated control plants were irrigated with an equal volume of water. The experiment was terminated on 60th post-inoculation day. Isolation of DNA was conducted on 2 to 3 larvae based on the protocol. The larvae were collected into Eppendorf tubes and WLB (+) was added, and the samples were incubated at 65°C for 1 hr and at 95°C for 10 min to obtain the genomic DNA (Waeyenberge et al., 2000). The species-specific SCAR markers (JMV1, JMV2, and JMVhapla) were used for M. hapla (Wishart et al., 2002). The

Characterization of the recovered populations
In total, 41 populations of RKNs were recovered including 34 populations from vegetable fields and nine populations from greenhouses in southern Iran. Two nematodes populations were obtained from weeds growing in vegetable fields. All the recovered populations in this study were tested with the species-specific molecular marker type Sequence Characterized Amplified Region (SCAR) for the four major species (Zijlstra, 2000; Zijlstra et al., 2000).

atrophic acne scars: ice pick, rolling and boxcar. Ice pick scars are deep and narrow (<2 mm).
This type of scar is characterized by steep sides that narrow down to one point, which resembles a wound made with a skewer. Rolling scars are wide (4–5 mm) and shallow. Boxcar scars are oval or round, with a diameter of 1.5 to 4 mm. They have well-defined, sharp edges. These scars are usually shallow (0.1 mm to 0.5 mm). It should be noted, however, that deeper boxcar scars (>0.5 mm) may be also encountered(8

-9.3). The known SCAR marker obtained for M. arenaria (Zijlstra et al., 2000) is the same as that amplified for M. morocciensis (Carneiro et al., 2008). Under greenhouse conditions, peach seedlings were inoculated with 1,000 eggs (Pi) from the original population of M. morocciensis, and non-inoculated plants were included. After 180 days, the plants were evaluated for the number of galls in the roots, and the final nematode population was also estimated (Pf). A mean of 338 galls per root system was
