A thirteen years old male patient of i was referred to our Dermatology D knees and hands. Patient was blind since birth and diagnosis of “retinitis pigmentosa” Ophthalmology Department. He was investigated and found raised levels of blood sugar, triglycerides, VLDL, TSH, SGOT/PT and kidney functions tests. He was diagnosed as a case of eruptive xanthomas with retinitis pigmentosa in secondary h...

[1] Volcanic eruptions are often accompanied by spatiotemporal migration of ground deformation, a consequence of pressure changes within magma reservoirs and pathways. We modeled the propagation of pressure variations through the east rift zone (ERZ) of K ılauea Volcano, Hawai‘i, caused by magma withdrawal during the early eruptive episodes (1983–1985) of the ongoing Pu‘u ‘ O‘ o-Kupaianaha erup...

Histiocytoses are a heterogeneous group of diseases, characterized by the accumulation of reactive or neoplastic histiocytes in various tissues. Generalized eruptive histiocytosis belongs to cutaneous non-Langerhans' cell histiocytoses and is a rare, generalized, self-healing disorder that usually follows a benign clinical course. Herein, we report a case of generalized eruptive histiocytosis i...

The mechanical conditions for a volcanic eruption to occur are conceptually simple: a magma-driven fracture (normally a dyke) must be able to propagate from the source to the surface. The mechanics of small to moderate (eruptive volumes less than 10 km 3 ) is reasonably well understood, whereas that of large eruptions (eruptive volumes of 10-1000 km 3 ) is poorly understood. Here I propose that...

Eruptive forest insects are highly influential agents of change in forest ecosystems, and their effects have increased with recent climate change. State-dependent life histories contribute significantly to the population dynamics of eruptive forest insect herbivores; however, the proximate mechanisms by which these species shift between states is poorly understood. Laboratory bioassays were con...

EMN: eruptive melanocytic nevi EMMM: epidermotropic metastatic malignant melanoma ITM: in-transit metastases INTRODUCTION Eruptive melanocytic nevi (EMN) are an unusual phenomenon characterized by the rapid appearance of multiple melanocytic nevi. Whether atypical or benign, EMN are associated with various medications and diseases but not previously with melanoma. EMN have been described in int...

[1] Satellite monitoring offers a powerful means to regularly characterize the mechanical and thermal states of active volcanoes. Satellite-measured surface inflation and radiant heat flux reflect the pressurization and discharge, respectively, of a magmatic system, suggesting that studying these parameters together may help in better understanding future eruptive activity. We incorporate InSAR...

I between plants and insects encompass half of all ecological relationships (Strong et al. 1984), yet natural constraints keep most species from undergoing widescale population eruptions. Understanding the dynamics of eruptive species can provide valuable insights into fundamental ecological processes such as ecosystem disturbance, multitrophic interactions, symbioses, chemical signaling, and t...
