A case of double aortic arch in a 15 month old boy was diagnosed by cross sectional echocardiography supplemented by Doppler colour flow mapping. These examinations showed two very large vessels communicating with the aorta; the demonstration of anterograde flow in one vessel and retrograde flow in the other enabled a definite diagnosis of Edwards type IA double aortic arch to be made.

Abstract—This paper deals with the analytical investigation of thermal and thermohydraulic performance of double flow solar air heaters with corrugated and flat plate absorber. A mathematical model of double flow solar air heater has been presented, and a computer program in C++ language is developed to estimate the outlet temperature of air for the evaluation of thermal and thermohydraulic eff...

Introduction: Cell transplantation is one of the main strategies for spinal cord injury repair. As OECs of the olfactory mucosa can be obtained by simple biopsy in all individuals without affecting their smell sensation, OECs considered as a promising candidate for autologous transplantation in the nervous system injury, especially for spinal cord repair. Thereby in the current study OECs wer...

Analytical results for the velocity distribution, mass flow rate, pressure gradient, wall shear stress, and vorticity in mixed electroosmotic/pressure driven flows are presented for two-dimensional straight channel geometry. We particularly analyze the electric double-layer (EDL) region near the walls and define three new concepts based on the electroosmotic potential distribution. These are th...

We derive Kramers' formula as singular limit of the Fokker-Planck equation with double-well potential. The convergence proof is based on the Rayleigh principle of the underlying Wasser-stein gradient structure and complements a recent result by Peletier, Savaré and Veneroni.

[1] Lonar crater is a simple, bowl-shaped, near-circular impact crater in the 65 Myr old Deccan Volcanic Province in India. As Lonar crater is a rare terrestrial crater formed entirely in basalt, it provides an excellent opportunity to study the impact deformation in target basalt, which is common on the surfaces of other terrestrial planets and their satellites. The present study aims at docum...

background: regarding the strong differentiation and anti-leukemic activity of dendrostellera lessertii extract, an active agent with similar capabilities was isolated from the crude extract of the plant leaves. the aim of this study was to determine whether the anti-proliferative effect observed for this compound, is differentiation-dependent among the drug-treated cells, using u937 cells. met...
