Abdominal cocoon or sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis is a rare condition of unknown cause in which intestinal obstruction results from the encasement of variable lengths of bowel by a dense fibrocollagenous membrane that gives the appearance of a cocoon. This condition is not often suspected preoperatively, and therefore the diagnosis is usually made at laparotomy (1). The abdominal cocoon ...

In this paper, we describe the formatting guidelines for ACM SIG Proceedings. Knowledge discovery is the process of analysing data for future planning. The nature of data and anomalies are different in different record data sets. The problem of detecting contextual anomalies in data sets is also different from the traditional anomaly detection problem. A time series is a chronological sequence ...

Eisenia fetida were exposed continuously to (60)Co gamma radiation during two generations (F(0) and F(1)). Adult F(0) reproduction capacity (i.e., number of cocoons produced, hatchability and number of F(1) hatchlings) in controls and at five dose rates (0.18, 1.7, 4, 11 and 43 mGy/h) was measured over a 13-week exposure period. Survival, growth and sexual maturation of F(1) hatchlings were obs...
