Atypical residency of short-beaked common dolphins () to a shallow, urbanized embayment in south-eastern Australia.

Short-beaked common dolphins () are typically considered highly mobile, offshore delphinids. This study assessed the residency of a small community of short-beaked common dolphins in the shallow, urbanized Port Phillip Bay, south-eastern Australia. The ability to identify common dolphins by their dorsal fin markings and coloration using photo-identification was also investigated.

Living related kidney transplantation in a 15-year-old patient with type I hyperoxaluria: a case report.

The following is a case report of a patient with type I hyperoxaluria who received a living related renal transplant for end-stage renal disease. The deficiency or complete absence of the hepatic enzyme alanine glyoxalate aminotransferase characterizes type I hyperoxaluria. When deficient, an overproduction of oxalate occurs, which then can be deposited in multiple end-organ systems.
