Fortuitous discovery of a superior and posterior pancreaticoduodenal artery originating from the right branch of the hepatic artery during cadaver dissection.

Introduction: The duodeno-pancreatic region is a highly vascularized area. The superior and posterior pancreaticoduodenal artery is a vessel primarily originating from the gastroduodenal artery. It exhibits rare anatomical variations, such as its emergence from the right branch of the hepatic artery, which we fortuitously identified during a cadaver dissection.

binary toxin CDT induces biofilm-like persisting microcolonies.

Clinical symptoms of infection (CDI) range from diarrhea to pseudomembranous colitis. A major challenge in managing CDI is the high rate of relapse. Several studies correlate the production of CDT binary toxin by clinical strains of with higher relapse rates.

Integrated PIN modulator and photodetector operating in the mid-infrared range from 5.5 μm to 10 μm.

This study reports the experimental demonstration of the first waveguide-integrated SiGe modulator using a PIN diode operating in a wide spectral range of the mid-infrared region. At the wavelength of 10 µm, an extinction ratio up to 10 dB is obtained in injection regime and 3.2 dB in depletion regime.

The current riboswitch landscape in .

Riboswitches are 5' RNA regulatory elements that are capable of binding to various ligands, such as small metabolites, ions and tRNAs, leading to conformational changes and affecting gene transcription or translation. They are widespread in bacteria and frequently control genes that are essential for the survival or virulence of major pathogens. As a result, they represent promising targets for the development of new antimicrobial treatments.
