Outcome in paraplegic dogs with or without pain perception due to thoracolumbar fibrocartilaginous embolic myelopathy or acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion [PDF]
BackgroundFibrocartilaginous embolic myelopathy (FCEM) and acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion (ANNPE) are common causes of acute spinal cord injury in dogs. Outcome among paraplegic deep pain positive (DPP) and deep pain negative (DPN) dogs

Intracardiac Penetrating Injury with Right Femoral Artery Embolism due to Blast Injury.
Embolization due to blast injury with projectiles entering the bloodstream from the heart is a rare event that is unlikely to be suspected during the initial assessment of trauma patients.

Bullet embolism in a case of homicide: Case report [PDF]
Introduction. Bullet embolism is a special form of embolism, where embolus is either a bullet or its fragment. Bullet penetrates through the injured part of the body into circulation and then travels to a distant part of the body, until it gets ...

The two‐dimensional/three‐dimensional (2D/3D) van der Waals heterostructures (vdWH) combine the advantages of the 2D layer materials (2DLMs) and traditional 3D semiconductor materials simultaneously, which provide a new platform for developing high‐performance optoelectronic devices. Herein, we present a comprehensive review on the structure categories,

Island refuges for surviving nuclear winter and other abrupt sunlight‐reducing catastrophes
Abstract Some island nations in the Southern Hemisphere might survive a severe sun‐reducing catastrophe such as nuclear winter and be well placed to help reboot‐collapsed human civilization. Such islands must be resilient to the cascading effects abrupt sunlight reduction scenarios (ASRS) would impose beyond the impacts on agricultural systems.

Bullet and Shrapnel Embolism: When “Uncommon” Meets “Dangerous” [PDF]
Bullet and shrapnel embolism (BSE) is well described in the literature. Despite that, its rare occurrence creates a diagnostic challenge for providers tending to penetrating trauma victims. As with other forms of embolic phenomena, cases of BSE require a

The Proximal Ejecta Around the Marine‐Target Lockne Impact Structure, Sweden
Abstract Very few impact craters on Earth have preserved proximal ejecta (ejecta blanket), which when present help us to better understand the cratering processes when asteroid hits Earth. The 458 Ma old Lockne impact structure consists of a 7.5‐km wide nested crater in the crystalline basement surrounded by an approximately 3‐km wide brim developed in

New Result on Interception of Stationary Targets at Arbitrary Time-Varying Velocity [PDF]
In this paper, some new results on time-varying missile against a stationary target using pure proportional navigation (PPN) are developed in the planar interception problem. First, the relative motion equation is established in arc-length domain based on the differential geometry theory, which eliminates the influence of time-varying missile speed ...
