The eutherian, family-level clade Zhelestidae is consistently although weakly supported in five phylogenetic analyses that we performed on all Cretaceous eutherians. Additionally in the fifth analysis, which included some placentals, Zhelestidae is placed as a stem eutherian clade rather than grouping within the crown clade Placentalia as argued in some previous studies but not others. The subf...

We evaluated the molestus form of Culex pipiens pipiens (L.) (hereafter referred to as "molestus") captured near Tashkent, Uzbekistan, for their ability to transmit Japanese encephalitis (family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, JEV) and West Nile (family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, WNV) viruses under laboratory conditions. These molestus were highly competent laboratory vectors of WNV, with ...

Given a von Neumann algebra M denote by S(M) and LS(M) respectively the algebras of all measurable and locally measurable operators affiliated with M. For a faithful normal semi-finite trace τ on M let S(M, τ) (resp. S0(M, τ)) be the algebra of all τ -measurable (resp. τ -compact) operators from S(M). We give a complete description of all derivations on the above algebras of operators in the ca...

BACKGROUND Estimates of baseline incidence of childhood intussusception could help safety monitoring after the introduction of rotavirus vaccines. We studied the incidence of intussusception in Uzbekistan, a GAVI-fund eligible state in Central Asia. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed intussusception cases in children <2 years of age treated during 2004-2008 at 15 hospitals in the Bukhara reg...
