Multi-decadal analysis of water resources and agricultural change in a Mediterranean semiarid irrigated piedmont under water scarcity and human interaction.

Mediterranean piedmonts are an important hydro-agricultural systems. They constitute the junction between the mountains, where the streamflow is generated, and the surrounding plains, where the water is used. In Morocco, these traditional systems extend largely along the High Atlas Mountains.

Determination of orthodontic bracket and tooth adaptation using an X-ray micro-computer tomography scanner.

The determination of the orthodontic brackets' adaptation to the curvatures of teeth is a difficult topic to study. The complexity arise due to the different designs of their fitting surfaces, margins and curvatures of orthodontic brackets. Teeth on the other hand have variation in their curvatures and the question remains how well an orthodontic brackets truly adapt to the teeth.

A gallbladder tumor revealing metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma: report of case and review of literature.

Unlabelled: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma in the gallbladder is extremely rare, with reported frequencies of less than 0.6% in large autopsy reviews. Only 40 cases were reported in the literature.

[Invasive thymoma extending into the superior vena cava and the right atrium: a case report and review of the literature].

If the neoplastic extension with the higher vena cava can be observed during the evolution of the invasive thymomes, the tumoral extension in the right auricle, remains on the other hand an exception. We report an invasive case of thymome to higher intracellar extension, right intraatrial and pleuropulmonary revealed by a syndrome undermines higher and a left pleurisy. The transthoracic echocardiography supplemented by the echocardiography transoesophageal pose the cardiac diagnosis of tumor, and it is the thoracic tomodensitometry which highlights a tumoral process mediastinal of malignant pace invading the left inominal venous trunk, the higher vena cava and extending in the right auricle.
