ATURAL populations of Drosophila are generally composed of complex arrays of different gene arrangements, but show a remarkable uniformity regarding the outward appearance of the flies. Therefore, color polymorphism is rare and chromosome polymorphism is common in this genus. Only a few species are either polymorphic with respect to externally visible traits or monomorphic with respect to gene ...

Agent-based modelling and simulation (ABMS) is highly instrumental for studying sociotechnical systems. MAIA – Modelling Agents using Institutional Analysis – is an ABMS modelling framework that formalises social sciences knowledge. It enables handling the complexity of large complex systems, allows collaborative model development and the reuse of model components when building simulations. We ...

Four platelet compatibility assays were performed on serum and platelet or lymphocyte samples from 38 closely HLA-matched donor/recipient pairs involved in 55 single-donor platelet transfusions. The 22 patients studied were refractory to transfusions of pooled random-donor platelets. Of the four assays (platelet suspension immunofluorescence, PSIFT; 51Cr release; microlymphocytotoxicity; and a ...

Purpose. To evaluate the efficacy of setting a preferred retinal locus relocation target (PRT) and performing Macular Integrity Assessment (MAIA) biofeedback training in patients showing insufficient recovery of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) despite successful closure of an idiopathic macular hole (MH). Methods. Retrospective interventional case series. Nine eyes of 9 consecutive patients...

As one might expect, there are a number of instrumentation, rhythmic, and melodic differences between different recordings and manuscripts of both the songs Kalenda Maia and the Kyrie from the Christmas Mass. The piece Kalenda Maia will be examined first, then the Christmas Kyrie. The first difference between sources arises in the story behind the composition of Kalenda Maia, though perhaps it ...
