Pre-pausal devoicing and glottalisation in varieties of the south-western Arabian peninsula [PDF]
A wide range of modern Arabic dialects exhibit devoicing in pre-pausal (utterance-final) position. These include Cairene [20], Gulf Arabic, San’ani [8], [18], Manaxah [19], Central Highland Yemeni dialects [1], Rijal Alma‘ (Asiri p.c.), Central Sudanese (

Comparison of vaginal ointment of honey and clotrimazole for treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis: A random clinical trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is the most prevalent vaginitis in women, accounting for 10 million medical referrals a year. Vaginal clotrimazole is a drug of choice for VVC treatment. However, increased drug resistance to this

Polygonal tepee structures of Arabia
Tepee structures on Sheybarah Island form polygonal microbial cemented crusts in the intertidal. Radiocarbon dating suggests they formed in the Holocene and reflect minor sea‐level changes, highlighting their value as palaeoenvironmental indicators. Satellite surveys identified 126 polygonal features, including coral reefs that may have developed on ...

The number of guards needed by a museum: A phase transition in vertex covering of random graphs
In this letter we study the NP-complete vertex cover problem on finite connectivity random graphs. When the allowed size of the cover set is decreased, a discontinuous transition in solvability and typical-case complexity occurs.

Role of Lactobacillus crispatus in vaginal infections: insights from metagenomics and metabolomics studies [PDF]
Objective: Lactobacillus spp. constitute the most prevalent bacterial microorganism in the vaginal milleu. Several probiotic mechanisms have been associated with Lactobacillus, but the most relevant one is lactate production – resulting in a low pH value,

Krisanaklan reduces CFTR‐dependent intestinal chloride and fluid secretion by inhibiting the Na+,K+‐ATPase and K+ channels in epithelial cells. Consequently, this natural, plant‐derived product may limit secretory diarrhea caused by a diverse array of microbial pathogens. However, by dissipating the transmembrane Na+ gradient, Krisanaklan also inhibits
