Morphology of lecithotrophic postlarvae of genus Austropallene (Arthropoda: Chelicerata) with some notes on reproductive strategy.

The family Callipallenidae Hilton, 1942 belongs to the superfamily Nymphonoidea Pocock, 1904 together with other family, Nymphonidae. The lecithotrophic postlarvae hatch from the eggs of the callipallenid sea spiders, but the data on this life stage are very scarce and fragmentary. This gives a very limited understanding of larval anatomy, morphology, and diversity.

Does the Potocki-Lupski Syndrome Convey the Autism Spectrum Disorder Phenotype? Case Report and Scoping Review.

Potocki-Lupski Syndrome (PTLS) is a rare condition associated with a duplication of 17p11.2 that may underlie a wide range of congenital abnormalities and heterogeneous behavioral phenotypes. Along with developmental delay and intellectual disability, autism-specific traits are often reported to be the most common among patients with PTLS.

[Surgical treatment of lung cancer in patients over 75 years old].

Objective: To analyze surgical treatment of lung cancer in patients over 75 years old.

Material And Methods: The study enrolled 73 patients. Lobectomy was performed in 50 (68.

Method of manufacturing and staining microplastics for using in the biological experiments.

Nowadays, plastic pollution attracts much attention both from society and scientists. The plastic pollution impact on the environment and human health requires assessment urgently, especially through experimental studies. However, such studies are still scarce because of the lack of standard methods for assessing their effects on living organisms.

[Diagnostic clinical algorithm for mediastinal tumors].

Objective: To optimize therapeutic and tactical algorithm in patients with mediastinal tumors.

Material And Methods: The study included 300 patients with mediastinal tumors examined and treated in the Thoracic Surgery Department of the Hertzen Moscow Cancer Research Center between 2008 and 2019. Patients were stratified into 2 groups.

[Rethymectomy in patients with myasthenia gravis and recurrent thymoma].

Objective: To analyze efficacy and safety of rethymectomy in patients with pathology of thymus.

Material And Methods: Nine patients (2 males and 7 females) underwent rethymectomy in the thoracic surgery department of the Hertzen Research Institute of Oncology for the period from March 2009 to December 2019. Initial thymectomy for myasthenia gravis was performed in 6 patients, for thymoma without myasthenia - in 3 patients.

Fatty Acids Distribution in Seston, Tissues, and Faecal Pellets of Blue Mussels Mytilus edulis L.

The n-3 polyenoic fatty acids (phytoplankton origin) dominate in the fatty acid composition of seston, which is a food source for bivalves; this indicates the predominance of diatoms in the seston composition. The distribution of the main classes of lipids and their fatty acids in the tissues of blue mussels depends on the mollusk body size. As the body size of the mollusk increases, the ratio of membrane lipids decreases, and high-energy saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids accumulate in storage lipids.

Breast cancer detection by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy of blood serum and multivariate data-analysis.

Detection of breast cancer has particular importance for the diagnosis of cancer diseases. This is the most common type of cancer among women. Breast cancer is a malignant tumor of the glandular tissue of the breast.

Films Based on a Blend of PVC with Copolymer of 3-Hydroxybutyrate with 3-Hydroxyhexanoate.

Polymeric packaging materials are one of the factors of environmental pollution. Reducing the environmental burden is possible by increasing the environmental friendliness of packaging materials. In this work, we study polymer films based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with a copolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate with 3-hydroxyhexanoate P (3-GB) (3-GG) with different component ratios.

Metagenomic and satellite analyses of red snow in the Russian Arctic.

Cryophilic algae thrive in liquid water within snow and ice in alpine and polar regions worldwide. Blooms of these algae lower albedo (reflection of sunlight), thereby altering melting patterns (Kohshima, Seko & Yoshimura, 1993; Lutz et al., 2014; Thomas & Duval, 1995).
