Insights

This study describes a rare case of multiple aggregated dilated pores on the neck, a condition typically presenting as a solitary lesion. This finding expands the known clinical presentation of dilated pore of Winer.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Dilated pore of Winer is a benign follicular ביותר commonly presenting as a solitary lesion.
  • Previous literature documents dilated pores as typically isolated occurrences.

Observation:

  • A 74-year-old Japanese male presented with a decade-long history of approximately 20 open comedones on his lateral neck.
  • The lesions were histologically confirmed as dilated pores upon excisional biopsy.

Findings:

  • The case presented multiple, aggregated dilated pores, a presentation not previously documented in medical literature.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of dilated pore of Winer.

Implications:

  • This case expands the differential diagnosis for multiple comedonal lesions on the neck.
  • Highlights the importance of histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis of rare dermatological presentations.

Pore Size Distribution01:23

Pore Size Distribution

In concrete, the pore size distribution significantly influences the material's properties. Capillary pores, markedly larger than gel pores, form a vast network within partially hydrated cement paste, reducing the concrete's strength and increasing its permeability. This heightened permeability leads to a greater risk of damage from environmental factors like freeze-thaw cycles and chemical attacks, with the extent of vulnerability also being tied to the water-to-cement ratio.

Porosity and Absorption of Aggregate01:20

Porosity and Absorption of Aggregate

Aggregates contain pores of varying sizes; while some are completely enclosed within the particles, others open onto the surface, allowing water to penetrate. The porosity of aggregates is a major factor contributing to the overall porosity of concrete, given that aggregates constitute about three-quarters of concrete's volume.
When all pores in an aggregate are filled with water, the aggregate is considered saturated and surface-dry. If left in dry air, water will evaporate until the aggregate...
Total Voids in Concrete01:12

Total Voids in Concrete

Total voids in concrete encompass gel water volume, capillary pores, and entrapped air. Gel water (retained within the cement hydration products) and physically entrapped or adsorbed water are significant for the hydration process. For complete hydration, it's estimated that the space needed for the products of a cubic centimeter of cement doubles. Capillary pores constitute the unoccupied space within the hydrated cement paste, with their size largely influenced by the water-to-cement ratio...
