Article Synopsis
- Familial Hypophosphatasia is a genetic condition that is hard to diagnose because it shows different symptoms in different people, and it comes from various genetic changes.!
- The study looked at a unique genetic change (mutation) in a family from Tunisia, focusing on how this mutation affects the behavior and structure of a specific enzyme related to the condition.!
- Researchers used various methods, like modeling and simulations, to learn how this mutation impacts the enzyme's function, which helps explain the different symptoms seen in affected family members.!
Ouzo is a well-known drink in Mediterranean countries, with ingredients water, alcohol and -anethole oil. The oil is insoluble in water, but completely soluble in alcohol, so when water is added to the spirit, the available alcohol is depleted and the mixture exhibits spontaneous emulsification. This process is commonly known as the louche or ouzo effect.

Methods: This is a retrospective descriptive cross-sectional study carried out on a population of 66 patients with SCS, (36 S/S, 18 S/β-thalassemia, seven S/C and five S/O), over a period of two years.
In the evaporation of microlitre liquid droplets, the accepted view is that surface tension dominates and the effect of gravity is negligible. We report, through the first use of rotating optical coherence tomography, that a change in the flow pattern and speed occurs when evaporating binary liquid droplets are tilted, conclusively showing that gravitational effects dominate the flow. We use gas chromatography to show that these flows are solutal in nature, and we establish a flow phase diagram demonstrating the conditions under which different flow mechanisms occur.
