Kattan et al 's nomogram to predict small, moderately differentiated, confined tumours (Kattan et al, 2003) that was recently validated and updated (Steyerberg et al, 2007); however, its application is questionable as its data are based on sextant biopsies with most centres now performing 10 12 core biopsies.
The present paper investigates the outcrop-scale architecture of submarine gravity flow deposits in both moderately to highly confined settings.
Samples with both microfractures and pores have a wide range of porosity and relatively high permeability that is moderately sensitive to confining pressure.
Local excision is an option in patients with very small, well to moderately differentiated tumors that are confined to the mucosa and submucosa [ 10].
These lesions must also be moderately or well differentiated and confined to the mucosa, and must not have lymphatic or vascular involvement; well-differentiated type adenocarcinomas correspond to the intestinal-type (Lauren, 1965), the expanding-type (Ming, 1977) and the differentiated carcinoma (Nakamura et al, 1968).
The clinical manifestations, although mild, the combustion of charcoal in a confined atmosphere, and the moderately elevated levels of COHb after intensive oxygenation all confirm the CO intoxication.
Our analysis suggests that angling-induced selection on reproductive investment in pike is moderately strong and positive, but we confined our analysis to this trait only.
Indications for ER treatment for esophageal cancer include well and/or moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) confined to the lamina propria without evidence of venous or lymphatic involvement [ 2, 3].
On steepland where the underlying rocks are moderately strong and stable, erosion is largely confined to the soil and regolith and occurs as sheet and rill erosion or as shallow landslides.
