A review of the genus (Hymenoptera, Diapriidae) in Germany with taxonomic notes on this genus and its distinction from .

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the genus Förster combining DNA barcoding and current morphology. Nineteen species of were found throughout Germany, including the newly described species First species records for Germany are: Macek, 1997; Macek, 1997; (Kieffer, 1908); Macek, 1997; Macek, 1997 and Nixon, 1957. We also clarify diagnoses for the two related genera, Förster and to designate the boundaries of the genus and propose new synonymies: Buhl, 1997 is a junior synonym of (Zetterstedt, 1840); Kozlov, 1978 is a junior synonym of (Curtis, 1831).

The Effect of ABCB1 and CES1 Polymorphisms on Plasma Levels of Dabigatran and Risk of Hemorrhagic Complications in Ischemic Stroke Patients.

Background: Dabigatran directly inhibits thrombin and is used in primary and secondary stroke prevention in individuals with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. The prodrug dabigatran etexilate is absorbed by enteral P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) and then activated by hepatic and intestinal carboxylesterases (CES1) to produce active metabolites. Variations in dabigatran metabolism because of genetics may affect concentration levels and clinical outcomes.

Donor nerve selection in free gracilis muscle transfer for facial reanimation. A systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical outcomes.

Background: One of the critical factors in facial reanimation is selecting the donor nerve. The most favored neurotizers are the contralateral facial nerve with a cross-face nerve graft (CFNG) and motor nerve to the masseter (MNM). A relatively new dual innervation (DI) method has shown successful results.

Determination of modified nucleosides in the urine of children with autism spectrum disorder.

Metabolic disorders and nutritional deficiencies in ASD children may be identified by the determination of urinary-modified compounds. In this study, levels of selected seven modified compounds: O-methylguanosine, 7-methylguanosine, 1-methyladenosine, 1-methylguanine, 7-methylguanine, 3-methyladenine, and 8-hydroxy-2`-deoxyguanosine in the group of 143 ASD children and 68 neurotypical controls were analyzed. An ancillary aim was to verify if the reported levels differed depending on the pathogenetic scoring of ASD (mild deficit, moderate deficit, severe deficit).

Environmental and health impacts assessment of long-term naturally-weathered municipal solid waste incineration ashes deposited in soil-old burden in Bratislava city, Slovakia.

Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) is an effective method for reducing the volume/mass of waste. However, MSWI ashes contain high concentrations of many substances, including trace metal (loid)s, that could be released into the environment and contaminate soils and groundwater. In this study, attention was focused on the site near the municipal solid waste incinerator where MSWI ashes are deposited on the surface without any control.
