Deuterostomes are bilaterian animals in which the blastopore, the site of gastrulation, becomes the anus and the mouth develops secondarily. Deuterostome phyla include Chordata, such as vertebrates like ourselves, and Echinodermata, such as sea urchins. The extent of homology among deuterostome mouths is unknown. To address this question, this thesis compares three aspects of mouth morphogenesi...

Abstract Aims We describe long–term clinical and echocardiographic follow–up in the largest single center cohort of patients underwent aortic valve replacement (AVR) with sutureless Perceval (CorCym, Italy) bioprosthesis. Methods Between March 2011 September 2022, 1237 AVR bioprosthesis implantation. Mean age was 78 ± 4 years mean EuroSCORE II 6.9 2.8%. Concomitant procedures were performed 272...

The development of high-performance electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is great significance green, sustainable, and renewable energy conversion. Herein, we report the synthesis amorphous Ru clusters on Co-doped defect-rich hollow carbon nanocage ([email protected]) as an efficient electrocatalyst HER in basic media. Due to advantages such high surface area, rich edge defect...
