Dental transposition is relatively infrequent anomaly of the developing dentition. This article focuses on canine transposition and explores the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of this challenging anomaly. Specifically, the management of a case of canine transposition involving an unerupted maxillary central incisor is described.

A 48-year-old female presented with complete heart block. On evaluation, it was diagnosed as a congenital cyanotic heart disease, namely, L-transposition of great arteries (L-TGA) with Fallot's physiology. She led the normal life of a manual laborer and had three hospital deliveries and yet escaped detection of her cardiac condition.

Search algorithms are used in many game-playing programs. To enhance the strength of these programs additional heuristics and improvements are used. One of these improvements is the use of transposition tables. In these tables information concerning a position investigated can be stored in order to re-use this information when the same position is encountered again during the search process (a ...

One critical question for the front end of models of visual-word recognition and reading is whether the stage of letter position coding is purely orthographic or whether phonology is (to some degree) involved. To explore this issue, we conducted a silent reading experiment in Japanese Kana--a script in which orthography and phonology can be easily separated--using a technique that is highly sen...

While searching for new therapeutics against malaria, Lanzavecchia and colleagues discovered that antibodies can be diversified by DNA sequences encoded outside of antibody genes.

While the anatomy of the coronary arteries in complete transposition of the great vessels has been studied by several authors, the overall problem of adequacy of the coronary blood supply in this condition has received less attention. Spitzer (1923) described the probable embryological basis for partial or complete transposition of the coronary arteries. Astley and Parsons (1952) thought that m...

In this study, we developed a new mariner-based transposition system for Listeria monocytogenes. The mariner-based system has a high rate of transposition and a low rate of plasmid retention, and transposition is very random, making it an ideal tool for high-throughput transposon mutagenesis in L. monocytogenes.
