Contrast Spread Technique: Evolution
The recognition of needle entry into an epidural space is a pivotal moment in cervical, thoracic, or lumbar epidural injections. Its significance cannot be overestimated. Regardless of how experienced you are, realizing that you are approaching an epidural space makes your heart beat faster. The safety of the procedure and its success rate depends upon proper and reliable identification of the ...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance: Origins, Evolution, Selection and Spread
Antibiotic resistance thwarts the treatment of infectious diseases worldwide. Although a number of factors can be identified which contribute to the problem, clearly the antibiotic as a selective agent and the resistance gene as the vehicle of resistance are the two most important, making up a 'drug resistance equation'. Both are needed in order for a clinical problem to arise. Given sufficient...
متن کاملIntein spread and extinction in evolution.
Inteins are selfish DNA elements found within coding regions. They are translated with their host protein, but then catalyze their own excision and the formation of a peptide bond between their flanking protein regions. Understanding what drives and selects inteins is relevant for assessing whether they have unidentified biological functions and whether they can invade and become established in...
متن کاملInbreeding drives maize centromere evolution.
Functional centromeres, the chromosomal sites of spindle attachment during cell division, are marked epigenetically by the centromere-specific histone H3 variant cenH3 and typically contain long stretches of centromere-specific tandem DNA repeats (∼1.8 Mb in maize). In 23 inbreds of domesticated maize chosen to represent the genetic diversity of maize germplasm, partial or nearly complete loss ...
متن کاملThe genetics of maize evolution.
Maize and its closest wild relatives, the teosintes, differ strikingly in the morphology of their female inflorescences or ears. Despite their divergent morphologies, several studies indicate that some varieties of teosinte are cytologically indistinguishable from maize and capable of forming fully fertile hybrids with maize. Molecular analyses identified one form of teosinte (Zea mays ssp. par...
