Context Tumors of the jugular foramen present a challenge to skull base surgeons.Their rarity, coupled with the complex anatomy of the region Baby require exquisite knowledge and surgical technique.We present the history of the craniocervical approach to the jugular foramen, as well as surgical advice on how to manage the different extensions these
Deep-sea bivalves found at hydrothermal vents, cold seeps and organic falls are sustained by chemosynthetic bacteria that ensure part or all of their carbon nutrition.These symbioses are of prime importance for the functioning of the ecosystems.Similar symbioses occur in other bivalve species living in shallow and coastal reduced habitats worldwide
A tube-integrated flow sensor is proposed in this study by integrating a micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) flow-sensing element and Struts electrical wiring structure on the same copper on polyimide (COP) substrate.The substrate was rolled into a circular tube with the flow-sensing element installed at the center of the tube.The signal lines
Abstract Background Patients undergoing liver transplantation with preexisting renal dysfunction are prone to further renal impairment with the early postoperative use of Calcineurin-inhibitors.However, there is only little scientific evidence for the safety and efficacy of de novo CNI free "bottom-up" regimens in patients with impaired renal funct
This article investigates the prospects of using fullerenes and their compounds in the food and agricultural sectors.The study considers the biological activity of fullerenes in relation to microorganisms and biological objects, and highlights their potential in creating materials with specific microbiological properties and radioprotective capabil
