Rhabdomyolysis due to Severe Hypernatremia Caused by Dehydration, in a Child with Gastroenteritis: a Case Report

Background Rhabdomyolysis is considered a rare medical condition in pediatric population. Case Report We report our experience on a one year old girl referred to Shiraz Nemazee Hospital, Southern Iran with rhabdomyolysis due to severe hypernatremia, secondary to gastroenteritis. Discussion Rhabdomyolysis should be taken in to consideration in hypernatremic states, as it may lead to severe conse...

Spontaneous Rupture of Uterus in Midtrimester Pregnancy Due to Increased Uterine Pressure with PreviousLaparoscopic Myomectomy

An adaptability limit to climate change due to heat stress.

Despite the uncertainty in future climate-change impacts, it is often assumed that humans would be able to adapt to any possible warming. Here we argue that heat stress imposes a robust upper limit to such adaptation. Peak heat stress, quantified by the wet-bulb temperature T(W), is surprisingly similar across diverse climates today. T(W) never exceeds 31 degrees C. Any exceedence of 35 degrees...

A modular approach to anion binding podands: adaptability in design and synthesis leads to adaptability in properties.

Progress in the development of a modular approach towards flexible anion-binding and sensing systems is reviewed within the context of related developments in conformationally flexible anion- and salt-binding hosts. The transferability of concepts and structural features across chemically distinct systems is emphasised along with the use of modular components in polymer and gel-phase systems.

Assessment of Yield Loss in Rice due to Yellow Stem Borer, Scirpophaga incertulas, Using Simulation Models

The yield loss simulation (YLS) and the MACROS LIQ.CSM models were used to simulate the effect of stem borer damage at a detillering rate of 5, 15, 30, 60% at vegetative, panicle initiation and grain filing stages, on yield of rice cultivar?s Ratna. This stem borer damage during vegetative and panicle initiation stages was not simulated appropriately by both the models. Relatively MACROS simul...
