twin reversed arterial perfusion (trap) sequence is a syndrome with poor prognosis, seen only in monochorionic monozygotic twin pregnancies. the incidence is one in 35.000 births and one in 100 monozygotic twin pregnancies. it is characterized with a recipient fetus exhibiting lethal anomalies including acardia and a pump fetus. mortality is usually due to heart failure or premature labor cause...

BACKGROUND The Ozark Mountains are a region with high endemism and biodiversity, yet few invertebrate inventories have been made and few sites extensively studied. We surveyed a site near Steel Creek Campground, along the Buffalo National River in Arkansas, using twelve trap types - Malaise traps, canopy traps (upper and lower collector), Lindgren multifunnel traps (black, green, and purple), p...

In the present work, a one pot, rapid and room temperature photochemical Synthesis of transition metal (TM; Cu, Mn, Cr)-doped ZnSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) was reported. FT-IR spectrum confirmed the capping of ZnSe by thioglycolic acid. XRD and TEM analysis demonstrated zinc blende phase NCs with an average size of around 3 and 5 nm for TM:ZnSe and TM:ZnSe/ZnS NCs, respectively. PL spe...

Acute infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is infrequently diagnosed, owing in large part to vague or non-specific symptoms. Among the most common of these symptoms are fever, fatigue, pharyngitis, lymphadenopathy, anorexia, arthralgia, myalgia, rash, and headache.
