FGF14 GAA Intronic Expansion in Unsolved Adult‐Onset Ataxia in the Care4Rare Canada Consortium

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) represent a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of progressive neurodegenerative diseases with prominent cerebellar atrophy. Recently, a novel pathogenic repeat expansion in intron 1 of FGF14 was identified, causing adult‐onset SCA (SCA27B). We aimed to determine the proportion

Complete cleft of the upper limb: A very rare anomaly

Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2008
Background: We describe here a very rare congenital deformity that involves the splitting of the right upper limb with the superior limb articulating with the shoulder joint, and the inferior limb laterally attached to the chest wall.

Phase of a chiral determinant and global SU(2) anomaly [PDF]

Phys.Lett. B415 (1997) 390-394, 1997
A representation for the phase of a chiral determinant in terms of a path integral of a local action is constructed. This representation is used to modify the action of chiral SU(2) fermions removing the global anomaly.

A Novel Approach on Rapid Alloy Development of Tool Steels for Laser Powder Bed Fusion by In Situ Alloying

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A novel approach for alloy development in laser powder bed fusion is introduced. Instead of producing massive samples of one composition at a time, prepressed powder bed samples produced from powder mixtures are processed. Guidelines for the selection of precursor powders are developed.

Bone-Regeneration Therapy Using Biodegradable Scaffolds: Calcium Phosphate Bioceramics and Biodegradable Polymers

Bioengineering
Calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone is broadly used for the clinical treatment of bone defects caused by trauma and bone tumors. Synthetic bone is easy to use; however, its effects depend on the size and location of the bone defect.

A note on the paper, "Quarks or Leptons?" [PDF]

Mod.Phys.Lett. A14 (1999) 387-390, 1998
In the context of a recent description of Fermions as Kerr-Newman type black holes with Quantum Mechanical inputs, it is shown how the quark picture can be recovered. The advantage is that in the process we obtain a rationale for such features as the puzzling fractional charges of the quarks, their masses, confinement and handedness in a unified scheme.

Rural People, Rural Places: The Hidden Costs of Hurricane Katrina [PDF]

, 2006
This brief shows how the characteristics of rural Gulf Coast families place them at higher risks during natural disasters and make them far less able to recover from such calamities.

Spray Deposition for Solvent Annealing of Hybrid Poly(3,4‐Ethylenedioxythiophene) Polystyrene Sulfonate Cellulose Silver Nanowire Composite Electrodes Using a Roll‐to‐Roll Coater

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The fabrication and post‐treatment via solvent annealing of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate‐based electrodes using spray deposition in a roll‐to‐roll setup are presented. The decrease in sheet resistance and its correlation with nanostructure and molecular structure in the electrodes as a function of the processing parameters is ...

KPG 390: A pair of trailing spirals. [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010
AbstractIn this study we present scanning Fabry-Perot Hα observations of the isolated interacting galaxy pair NGC 5278/79. We derived velocity fields, various kinematic parameters and rotation curves for both galaxies. These kinematical results together with the fact that dust lanes have been detected in both galaxies, as well as the analysis of ...
