Turtles with a complete transection of the spinal cord just posterior to the forelimb enlargement at the D2-D3 segmental border produced coordinated rhythmic hindlimb movements. Ipsilateral stimulation of cutaneous afferents in the midbody shell bridge evoked a rostral scratch. Electrical stimulation of the contralateral dorsolateral funiculus (DLF) at the anterior cut face of the D3 segment ac...

Cat scratch disease is a non-epidemic infection caused by Gram negative bacillus Bartonella henselae. The most common course of the disease includes regional lymphadenitis and skin papule at the entrance site of the infection. We report a case of a female, 22 years of age, with cat scratch disease. Clinically we observed the typical skin papule at the entrance site of the infection with severe ...

In this paper we present the feature of Dr. Scratch that allows to automatically assessing the Computational Thinking skills of Scratch projects. The paper reviews similar initiatives, like Hairball, and investigates the literature with proposals for assessment of Scratch projects that we have studied and remixed in order to develop the Computational Thinking analysis. Then it introduces the va...
