New variants of occulotympanoplasty employing single and double--T, double--T--supporting prostheses in patients with chronic otitis media are provided. Surgical application of the flat bone and dura mater from human fetus facilitates the operative technique and reduces traumatism of the transplanted appliances. The results obtained confirm feasibility of adjusting the transformation system according to individual morphologic setting and suggest conclusions on superiority of the designs with little persistence, i.e. single and double--T prostheses.

It remains a great challenge to achieve polar order in organic molecular crystals because anti-parallel alignment of side-by-side molecules is intrinsically preferred. We have addressed this problem with a rational design that focuses on the polar stacking of parallel beloamphiphile monolayers (PBAMs) with strong lateral quadrupole-quadrupole attractions. We employ arene-arene interactions as lateral synthons.

Gene duplication is increasingly recognized as an important mechanism for the origination of new genes, as revealed by comparative genomic analysis. However, how new duplicate genes contribute to phenotypic evolution remains largely unknown, especially in plants. Here, we identified the new gene EXOV, derived from a partial gene duplication of its parental gene EXOVL in Arabidopsis thaliana.

The benefit of combining in-cell solid-state dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR and cryogenic temperatures is providing sufficient signal/noise and preservation of bacterial integrity via cryoprotection to enable in situ biophysical studies of antimicrobial peptides. The radical source required for DNP was delivered into cells by adding a nitroxide-tagged peptide based on the antimicrobial peptide maculatin 1.1 (Mac1).

Two techniques are described to treat distal radius fractures: conventional (Henry approach) and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis. The latter technique has been described by different authors such as Imatani . and Zenke .

Background: Partial peri-cystectomy (PPC) is one of the major surgical approaches for hepatic cystic echinococcosis (CE) and has been practiced in most centers worldwide. Cysto-biliary communication (fistula, leakage, rupture) is a problematic issue in CE patients. T-tube is a useful technique in situations where an exploration and decompression are needed for common bile duct (CBD).
