But after an ultrasound showed a complex mass in the right lower abdomen and absence of splenic shadow from splenic fossa on x-ray, the diagnosis of wandering spleen was more likely, which was finally diagnosed on CT scan and confirmed during operation. The acute pain was because of torsion ...
Ultra-high-field nuclear magnetic resonance structural analysis of native oxytocin and the seleno-oxytocin derivatives reveals that oxytocin has a pre-organized structure in solution, in marked contrast to earlier X-ray crystallography studies. Finally, we show that these seleno-oxytocin analogues ...
