Hydrate occurrence in Europe: Risks, rewards, and legal frameworks.

In January of this year (2020), a major scientific study ('the Minshull report') announced that gas hydrate reservoirs were found in many offshore areas across Europe. The European Commission is now considering a policy view to commercialize the development and extraction of methane gas from European offshore areas. Affirmation from the European Commission that offshore methane hydrates are too useful and too valuable to forego development could initiate a global response to adopt offshore methane hydrates as a new source of natural gas for heating, for electrical power supplies, and for potential new revenues.

Use of Platelet-rich Plasma in the Treatment of Recalcitrant Sinus Tracts: A Case Series.

Unlabelled: Sinus tract formation is common in a wide variety of wounds and can be difficult to manage. Nonsurgical techniques for treating sinus tracts have generally been disappointing, though many nonsur- gical options have been explored including dermal matrix injection, platelet-derived growth factors, fibrin sealant, and phenytoin. This case series explores the treatment of nonhealing chronic wound-related si- nus tracts with autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in a series of patients in a single center, hospital-based, chronic wound care cen- ter.

Template switching within exons 3 and 4 of KV11.1 (HERG) gives rise to a 5' truncated cDNA.

K(V)11.1 (HERG) channels contribute to membrane potential in a number of excitable cell types. We cloned a variant of K(V)11.
