Atomic Mass01:52

Atomic Mass

70.1K
Atoms — and the protons, neutrons, and electrons that compose them — are extremely small. For example, a carbon atom weighs less than 2 × 10−23 g. When describing the properties of tiny objects such as atoms, we use appropriately small units of measure, such as the atomic mass unit (amu). The amu was originally defined based on hydrogen, the lightest element, then later in terms of oxygen. Since 1961, it has been defined with regard to the most abundant isotope of carbon, atoms of which...

Molar Mass

The identity of a substance is defined not only by the types of atoms or ions it contains but by the quantity of each type of atom or ion. For example, water, H2O, and hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, are alike in that their respective molecules are composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms. However, because a hydrogen peroxide molecule contains two oxygen atoms, as opposed to the water molecule, which has only one, the two substances exhibit very different properties.

Mass and Weight

15.3K
Mass and weight are often used interchangeably in everyday conversation. For example,  medical records often show our weight in kilograms, but never in the correct units of newtons. In physics, however, there is an important distinction. Weight is the pull of the Earth on an object. It depends on the distance from the center of the Earth. Weight dramatically varies if we leave the Earth's surface, unlike mass, which does not vary with location. On the Moon, for example, the...

Atomic Number and Mass Number01:12

Atomic Number and Mass Number

15.6K
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is its atomic number (Z). This is the defining trait of an element. Its value determines the identity of the atom. For example, any atom that contains six protons is the element carbon and has the atomic number 6, regardless of how many neutrons or electrons it may have. A neutral atom must contain the same number of positive and negative charges, so the number of protons equals the number of electrons. This means that the atomic number also...

Mass Concreting01:22

Mass Concreting

342
Mass concreting refers to the process of placing large volumes of concrete, such as in gravity dams. The heat generated during the cement hydration process and differential cooling rates within the concrete mass can lead to a temperature gradient, which can result in thermal cracks in the concrete mass.
To reduce the risk of such cracking, the concrete mix may incorporate low-heat cement and pozzolans to reduce the temperature rise. Pre-cooled angular aggregates and water-reducing admixtures...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Hematology
  • Lymphoma Research

Background:

  • Lymphoblastic lymphomas constitute 20-30% of pediatric non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL).
  • The majority of childhood lymphoblastic lymphoma cases are T-cell type (T-LL).
  • T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma predominantly affects late childhood and adolescence, with a 2:1 male predominance.

Observation:

  • A pediatric patient presented with a right-sided mediastinal mass.
  • The mediastinal mass was causing a significant mediastinal shift.
  • Diagnostic evaluation confirmed the mass as T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

Findings:

  • The case illustrates a typical presentation of T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma in a pediatric patient.
  • The presence of a mediastinal mass and shift are key clinical indicators.
  • Diagnosis was confirmed as T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of recognizing mediastinal masses in pediatric oncology for early T-LL detection.
  • Understanding the epidemiological characteristics of T-LL aids in diagnosis and management.
  • Further research into T-LL in children can improve treatment strategies and outcomes.
