Behavioural isolation from divergence in male advertisement calls and female preferences is hypothesized to cause genetic divergence and speciation in the Amazonian frogs Physalaemus petersi and P. freibergi, yet the importance of call variation and landscape features in genetic divergence is unresolved. We tested for correlations between genetic divergence at microsatellite loci and (1) call v...

We report two cases of renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD) with calvarial hypoplasia and review the originally reported cases ofRTD that came from our institution and published reports regarding the association of RTD and skull abnormalities. Although previously reported in association with RTD, calvarial hypoplasia is probably under-recognised. The cases reported here support the idea that the skul...

Frequency combs have enabled significant progress in frequency metrology and high-resolution spectroscopy extending the achievable resolution while increasing the signal-to-noise ratio. In its coherent mode, synchrotron radiation is accepted to provide an intense terahertz continuum covering a wide spectral range from about 0.1 to 1 THz. Using a dedicated heterodyne receiver, we reveal the pure...

As a sequel to our previous paper on extending the Fast Multipole Method (FMM) for charges inside a dielectric sphere [J. Comput. Phys. 223 (2007) 846-864], this paper further extends the FMM to the electrostatic calculation for charges inside a dielectric sphere immersed in an ionic solvent, a scenery with more relevance in biological applications. The key findings include two fourth-order mul...

This paper explores matching with both search and information frictions. Specifically, everyone observes only a noisy signal of the true type of any potential mate. In this context, matching decisions must incorporate not only information about a partner’s attribute conveyed by the noisy signal, but also—as in the winner’s curse in auction theory—information about a partner’s type contained in ...

OBJECTIVE To study the drug sensitivity pattern of cholera in children. SETTING DTU of Civil Hospital, Karachi. PATIENTS AND METHODS All children age 2 months to 15 years attending Diarrhoea Treatment Unit (DTU) with acute onset of diarrhoea and dehydration were screened for cholera. Stool samples were collected in alkaline peptone and those positive for cholera had their antibiotic sensiti...

The study aimed to investigate the differences between face-to-face and online teaching, as well effect of middle term points in total score context teaching. Correlational research design a database students’ attendance results get secondary data were used study. A random cluster sample students from bachelor's degree program was taken. demonstrated that there is mean difference population or,...

The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR) are major public health issues worldwide. objective this study is to evaluate the microbiological efficacy tigecycline against multi-drug-resistant explore its potential place in clinical practice. A retrospective was carried out over 7 years, from January 2015 December 2021, at Avicenne Military Hospital. Were collected all bacteri...
