Huge permittivity and premature metallicity in Bi$_2$O$_2$Se single crystals [PDF]
Bi$_2$O$_2$Se is a promising material for next-generation semiconducting electronics. It exhibits premature metallicity on the introduction of a tiny amount of electrons, the physics behind which remains elusive. Here we report on transport and dielectric measurements in Bi$_2$O$_2$Se single crystals at various carrier densities.

Premature thoughts on writing disorders [PDF]
Three papers appeared in the 19th century describing the dissociation between speech and writing: Marce (1856), Ogle (1867) and Pitres (1884). An account of the convincing evidence of dissociations put forward in these papers is presented.

Early Detection of Retinopathy of Prematurity stage using Deep Learning approach [PDF]
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a fibrovascular proliferative disorder, which affects the developing peripheral retinal vasculature of premature infants. Early detection of ROP is possible in stage 1 and stage 2 characterized by demarcation line and ridge with width, which separates vascularised retina and the peripheral retina.

Prematurity and twinning [PDF]
Newborns from multiple pregnancies are increasing in number and demonstrate a higher perinatal morbidity and mortality compared to singletons. Prematurity is the main reason for most neonatal diseases in twins, but other variables may play a role and their prenatal evaluation may improve the overall outcome.Prematurity is six times more frequent in ...

Model of unidirectional block formation leading to reentrant ventricular tachycardia in the infarct border zone of postinfarction canine hearts [PDF]
BackgroundWhen the infarct border zone is stimulated prematurely, a unidirectional block line (UBL) can form and lead to double-loop (figure-of-eight) reentrant ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a central isthmus.

Therapeutic Environment and Premature newborns Development [PDF]
Introduction: Prematurity is the leading cause of neonatal mortality, however, the survival of preterm infants is guaranteed. Prolonged exposure to numerous sensory stimuli during early neonatal intensive care units contributes to the increased ...

Digestion of Protein in Premature and Term Infants. [PDF]
Premature birth rates and premature infant morbidity remain discouragingly high. Improving nourishment for these infants is the key for accelerating their development and decreasing disease risk. Dietary protein is essential for growth and development of

Sequelae of premature birth in young adults [PDF]
Background and Purpose Qualitative studies about the abnormalities appreciated on routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences in prematurely born adults are lacking. This article aimed at filling this knowledge gap by (1) qualitatively describing
