A total of 2400 incomplete helminthological postmortem examinations were carried out with sheep in 1972-1976. Four species of helminths were found in the liver: D. lanceatum (80.7 per cent), Ech. granulosus (68.4 per cent), F. hepatica (25.6 per cent), and Cyst. tenuicolis (1.7 per cent). Mixed infections were established in 68.2 per cent of the livers: F. hepatica, D. lanceatum, Ech. granulosus--11.5 per cent; F. hepatica, D. lanceatum--6.8 per cent; F. hepatica, Ech. granulosus 3.8 per cent; and D. lanceatum, Ech. granulosus--46.1 per cent. Single worm infections were observed in 26.9 per cent of these organs: D. lanceatum--16.3 per cent; Ech. granulosus--7.1 per cent; F. hepatica--3.5 per cent. Cysticercus tenuicollis was established in 1.7 per cent of the cases. Worm-free were only 5.2 per cent of the livers. In decending order the parasite burden ranked as followes: Ech. granulosus, D. lanceatum, F. hepatica, Cyst. tenuicollis.

Background And Study Aims: Spine surgeries are one of the most widely accepted method of surgery in orthopaedics. However, one of the most common complications of spine surgeries is surgical site infection (SSI), that associated with various post operative morbidities. The use of antibiotics impregnated bone cement (AIBC) is common in orthopaedics surgeries.

Background: Better affordability of data plans and an increase in "budget" smartphones have resulted in an exponential rise in internet and smartphone users. The ease of access to sexually explicit material (SEM) coupled with adolescents' impulsivity makes them prone to excessive SEM exposure and may affect the development of sexuality via the perceived realism of such content. This study was done to study the influence between problematic smartphone usage (PSU) and sexuality development among late adolescent boys.

In quantum information science and sensing, electron spins are often purified into a specific polarization through an optical-spin interface, a process known as optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR). Diamond-NV centers and transition metals are both excellent platforms for these so-called color centers, while metal-free molecular analogues are also gaining popularity for their extended polarization lifetimes, milder environmental impacts, and reduced costs. In our earlier attempt at designing such organic high-spin π-diradicals, we proposed to spin-polarize by shelving triplet = ±1 populations as singlets.

Genetic encoding of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) with desired functionalities is an invaluable tool for the study of biological processes and the development of therapeutic drugs. However, existing ncAA incorporation strategies are rather time-consuming and have relatively low success rates. Here, we develop a virtual ncAA screener based on the analysis and modeling of the chemical properties of all reported ncAA substrates to virtually determine the recognition potential of candidate ncAAs.
