Chromosomal analyses of human giant diploid oocytes by next‐generation sequencing
Purpose Although giant oocytes (GOs) having about twice cytoplasmic volume compared with general oocytes in mammals including the human are rarely recovered, it is thought that GOs have potentially chromosomal abnormalities.

Cytomorphology in Tuberculous Lymphadenitis and Correlation With Acid Fast Bacilli Detection by Papanicolaou, Auramine-Rhodamine Fluorescence and Ziehl-Neelsen Techniques. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Tuberculosis (TB) is a common cause of lymphadenopathy in developing countries. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) along with acid fast bacilli (AFB) detection is an invaluable diagnostic test. Fluorescent methods for AFB detection have greater sensitivity as compared to the Ziehl‐Neelsen (ZN) method. Methods The incidence of TB
