MELAS syndrome: Case report [PDF]

Medicinski casopis, 2011
Syndrome that includes mitochondrial encephalomyo-pathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes is briefly called MELAS. It is a rare (estimated prevalence is 16/100 000), progressive, neurodegenerative and incurable disease. It is a result of mutation of mitochondrial DNA. We report herein a case of 24-year-old woman who suffers from MELAS.

Operating Capacity, Pricing and Supply Elasticity in Container Shipping Markets

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the channels through which changes in operating capacity influence freight rates in the container shipping market using a novel dataset to create an operating capacity index at the shipping‐route level. Our analysis reveals that when supply elasticity is low, an increase in operating capacity tends to drive freight rates upward,

Sensory Biology of the Franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei, Pontoporiidae, Cetartiodactyla): Ontogenetic Modifications of Vibrissae and Vibrissal Crypts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...
