Measurements of the relaxation of a zonal electrostatic potential perturbation in a nonaxisymmetric magnetically confined plasma are presented. A sudden perturbation of the plasma equilibrium is induced by the injection of a cryogenic hydrogen pellet in the TJ-II stellarator, which is observed to be followed by a damped oscillation in the electrostatic potential. The waveform of the relaxation is consistent with theoretical calculations of zonal potential relaxation in a nonaxisymmetric magnetic geometry.

Introduction And Objective: This article presents the design and implementation of a rehabilitation program based on the muscular exercises of pelvic floor, incorporating the strength resistance work.
Materials And Methods: The design in quasi-experimental. The sample is formed by 33 participants in treatment phase.
In medical literature, there are many cases reported of anaphylaxis due to fruits, before or after allergic reactions to latex. We present two atopic patients, with allergy to latex (by clinical history, positive skin test and RAST). Both patients showed a positive skin test and RAST to fruits (banana, kiwi, avocado and chestnut), but clinically caused no symptoms.
