In case of pleural effusion thoracentesis is performed for examination of pleural fluid. In suspected ventilator-associated pneumonia it has been suggested that bronchoscopy is necessary because of the known risks surrounding clinical diagnoses
5. Small pieces of gold foil featuring engravings dating from the Migration Period into the early Viking Age have been discovered in various locations in Scandinavia, at one site almost 2, 500. The foil pieces have been found largely on the sites of buildings, only rarely in graves. The figures are sometimes single, occasionally an animal, sometimes a man and a woman with a leafy bough between them, facing or embracing one another. The human figures are almost always clothed and are sometimes depicted with their knees bent. Scholar Hilda Ellis Davidson says that it has been suggested that the figures are taking part in a dance, and that they may have been connected with weddings, as well as linked to the Vanir group of gods, representing the notion of a divine marriage, such as in the Poetic Edda poem Skírnismál; the coming together of Gerðr and Freyr

7. The synagogue in Eshtemoa was built around the 4th century. The mosaic floor is decorated with only floral and geometric patterns. The synagogue in Khirbet Susiya (excavated in 1971-72, founded in the end of the 4th century) has three mosaic panels, the eastern one depicting a Torah shrine, two menorahs, a lulav and an etrog with columns, deer and rams. The central panel is geometric while the western one is seriously damaged but it has been suggested that it depicted Daniel in the lion’s den.

The usual geometric design was enriched with birds in the center. It includes the names of the signs of the zodiac and important figures from the Jewish past but not their images suggesting that it served a rather conservative community
8. Asbestos exposure may also lead to a fibrothorax, which is usually bilateral. In these cases, extensive fibrosis of the visceral pleura develops, together with areas of adhesion with the parietal surfaces, thus obliterating the pleural space. Diffuse pleural thickening is known to follow benign asbestos pleural effusions, and it has been suggested that this is a necessary precursor of fibrothorax. In one series of 44 patients with diffuse pleural thickening, half had a history of benign asbestos effusion; conversely, 54% of those who had a benign asbestos effusion had residual pleural thickening. Diffuse pleural thickening is usually, but not inevitably, associated with heavy asbestos exposure, and its incidence increases with increasing time since first exposure. The pleural fibrosis is often progressive, resulting in restrictive lung defects, especially if the costophrenic angle is obliterated
