We present a detailed study of the cluster CL 0048-2942, located at z ∼ 0.64, based on a photometric and spectro-scopic catalogue of 54 galaxies in a 5 × 5 arcmin 2 region centred in that cluster. Of these, 23 galaxies were found to belong to the cluster. Based on this sample, the line-of-sight velocity dispersion of the cluster is approximately 680 ± 140 km/s. We have performed stellar populat...

A 15-month-old, spayed female, Bernese mountain dog was presented to the Institute of Small Animal Surgery at the University of Zurich because of chronic left forelimb lameness. The referring veterinarian diagnosed pain in the left shoulder region and had treated the dog with systemic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and restricted exercise for a two-week period. The follow-up examination ...

Pododermatitis is a worldwide problem in captive flaamingos. We performed an evaluation of different influence factors (age, sex, weight, origin, breeding status) and a comparison of foot lesions between several zoological institutions and the feet of free-ranging Greater flamingos (Phoenicopterus roseus). A scoring system was used to determine the prevalence and types of lesions and severity. ...

A 14-year old domestic shorthair cat was presented because of vomiting, anorexia and an abdominal mass. A diagnosis could not be made preoperative and during surgery the mass was assigned to the gastric part of the pancreas. A partial pancreatectomy and splenectomy was performed using a Ligasure® vessel sealing device. No surgery related complications occurred. Histological examination revealed...

Abstract Introduction EEG spectral power in the alpha range is indicative of a wake-like state, with typically high during wakefulness and reduced sleep. We previously reported that single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) activity-regulated cytoskeleton associated protein (ARC) gene modulates non-REM theta power. Here we sought to determine whether ARC genotype also phenotypic differences REM Meth...

An inductive database is a database that contains not only data but also patterns. Inductive databases are designed to support the KDD process. Recent advances in inductive databases research have given rise to a generic solvers capable of solving inductive queries that are arbitrary Boolean combinations of anti-monotonic and monotonic constraints. They are designed to mine different types of p...

We present results and first epoch parsec-scale images from a monitoring program on five γ–ray loud blazars selected on the basis of their total flux density variability. We observed 0048−097, 0235+164, 0954+658, 1510−089 and 1749+096 with the Very Long Baseline Array simultaneously at 8.4 GHz and 22 GHz. Comparison between our high quality images and previous results from the literature sugges...
