Objective: To study Aquilaria sinensis (Lour.) Spreng chromosome karyotype and C-banding.
Method: Sections for karvotvpe and BSG method for C-banding.
Results: The somatic chromosome number was 2n=16, karyotype formula was K(2n) = 2x = 16 = 6m + 6sm + 4st, based on Levan's publication in 1964. According to the method of Kuo, the chromosome based on the relative length was 2n = 16 = 4L + 4M2 + 6M1 + 2S, which belonged to "2B". 8 pairs chromosomes had 34 C-bands and the C-banding patter was 2n = 2x = 16 = 4C + 2I + 2T + 2CI+ + 2CI+ T + 2CI+ T+ + 2I+ T+.
Conclusion: The data of karyotype and C-banding indicated A. sinensis chromosome had a relatively high asymmetry and was in the advanced stage of evolution, which offered the evidence for further genetic analysis.

Dementia is a burgeoning global problem. Novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) metrics beyond volumetry may bring new insight and aid clinical trial evaluation of interventions early in the Alzheimer's disease course to complement existing imaging and clinical metrics. To determine whether: (i) normalized regional sodium-MRI values (Na-SI) are better predictors of neurocognitive status than volumetry (ii) cerebral amyloid PET status improves modelling.

The development of cell-type-specific dendritic arbors is integral to the proper functioning of neurons within their circuit networks. In this study, we examine the regulatory relationship between the cytosolic chaperonin CCT, key insulin pathway genes, and an E3 ubiquitin ligase (Cullin1) in dendritic development. CCT loss of function (LOF) results in dendritic hypotrophy in Class IV (CIV) multi-dendritic larval sensory neurons, and CCT has recently been shown to fold components of the TOR (Target of Rapamycin) complex 1 (TORC1) in vitro.

Introduction: In low-resource settings, magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) for preeclampsia is administered majorly through an injection into the gluteal muscles 4-hourly for 24 hours. The repeated injections are very painful and may lead to infection, abscess formation, and reduced compliance.
Objective: To determine the acceptability of Springfusor® pump for the administration of Magnesium Sulphate in preeclampsia and eclampsia.

Background And Objective: Oncological distal femur resections can leave a proximal femur too short to host a stem. Reconstructive techniques are then challenging. The purpose of the study is to compare implant survival, complication rate and MSTS of two different options.
