Intestinal Atresias: A Ten-Year Evaluation of Outcomes.

Introduction: Intestinal atresia is a common cause of neonatal bowel obstruction. Atresias are often associated with other congenital anomalies. The purpose of the study was to evaluate associated anomalies, operative management, and postoperative outcomes of infants with intestinal atresia.

Mental Disorder Diagnosis from EEG Signals Employing Automated Leaning Procedures Based on Radial Basis Functions.

Purpose: In this paper, a new automated procedure based on deep learning methods for schizophrenia diagnosis is presented.

Methods: To this aim, electroencephalogram signals obtained using a 32-channel helmet are prominently used to analyze high temporal resolution information from the brain. By these means, the data collected is employed to evaluate the class likelihoods using a neuronal network based on radial basis functions and a fuzzy means algorithm.

The efficiency of molar distalization using clear aligners and mini-implants: Two clinical cases.

When using clear aligners, if distalization greater than 3mm is required, there is no real predictable procedure to follow. The aim of this article is to show with two clinical cases the biomechanics of distalizing lower molars with mini-implant anchorage and aligners.

Topoisomerase II deficiency leads to a postreplicative structural shift in all Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosomes.

The key role of Topoisomerase II (Top2) is the removal of topological intertwines between sister chromatids. In yeast, inactivation of Top2 brings about distinct cell cycle responses. In the case of the conditional top2-5 allele, interphase and mitosis progress on schedule but cells suffer from a chromosome segregation catastrophe.
