Galactose intolerance and the risk of cataract.
Cataracts may arise in association with various major and minor disorders restricting galactose metabolism, and the risk is broadly associated with the degree of galactose intolerance. A family is described in which a girl presented at the age of 7 3/4 years with cataracts, galactosuria, and partial deficiencies of the enzymes galactokinase and galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase. Galactos...
متن کاملClimate change: a creeping catastrophe.
Q: People often blame unseasonal weather on climate change. Could you please explain the difference between weather and climate? A: Weather is what we see hourto-hour and day-to-day, and weather forecasts can tell us if it will rain, say, tomorrow afternoon, but because the weather is innately chaotic, forecasts for longer than 10 days are extremely poor. Climate is different. It is an average ...
متن کاملCreeping lymphangitis.
A 35 year old man presented with a two day history of a tender rash on the right thigh. Examination showed serpiginous erythema extending from a vesiculopustule on his right thigh. Staphylococcus aureus was identified in a culture of the vesiculopustular fluid. The diagnosis of lymphangitis spreading from folliculitis was made. The patient was successfully treated with oral ampicillin. Learning...
متن کاملCreeping soil
Soil creep is the most widespread and perhaps the least understood process of erosion on soil-mantled hillslopes. Soil is slowly ‘‘stirred’’ by burrowing creatures, and particles are displaced in wetting-drying cycles. These actions can cause downslope creep by processes analogous to particle diffusion. Other possible transport mechanisms include shear and viscous-like creep, such that precise ...
متن کاملRepeating Earthquakes as Low-Stress-Drop Events at a Border between Locked and Creeping Fault Patches
The source of repeating earthquakes on creeping faults is modeled as a weak asperity at a border between much larger locked and creeping patches on the fault plane. The x−1 2 / decrease in stress concentration with distance x from the boundary is shown to lead directly to the observed scaling T M ∝ 0 1 6 / between the average repeat time and average scalar moment for a repeating sequence. The s...
