چکیده
We report a case of tympanic membrane rupture during snorkeling in a 17-year-old young man who had previously undergone bilateral Jones tubes placed for epiphora. To our knowledge, this phenomenon has not been previously reported.

Benthic community structure on coral reefs exposed to intensive recreational snorkeling
Chronic anthropogenic disturbances on coral reefs in the form of overfishing and pollution can shift benthic community composition away from stony corals and toward macroalgae. The use of reefs for recreational snorkeling and diving potentially can lead to similar ecological impacts if not well-managed, but impacts of snorkeling on benthic organisms are not well understood. We quantified variat...
متن کاملRadial Breathing Mode Frequency of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube Via Multiple-Elastic Thin Shell Theory
In this paper, the radial breathing mode (RBM) frequencies of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are obtained based on the multiple-elastic thin shell model. For this purpose, MWCNT is considered as a multiple concentric elastic thin cylindrical shells, which are coupled through van der Waals (vdW) forces between two adjacent tubes. Lennard-Jones potential is used to calculate the vdW ...
متن کاملFrosted jones pyrex tubes.
PURPOSE To describe the use of a new, frosted Jones Pyrex tube in the treatment of obstructed canaliculi of the upper lacrimal system. The frosted Jones tube retains the advantages of the traditional smooth Pyrex tube yet appears to improve the positional stability in the surgically created fistula. METHODS Ten patients of a single surgeon who had previously undergone external conjunctivodacr...
متن کاملRelevance of lysine snorkeling in the outer transmembrane domain of small viral potassium ion channels.
Transmembrane domains (TMDs) are often flanked by Lys or Arg because they keep their aliphatic parts in the bilayer and their charged groups in the polar interface. Here we examine the relevance of this so-called "snorkeling" of a cationic amino acid, which is conserved in the outer TMD of small viral K(+) channels. Experimentally, snorkeling activity is not mandatory for Kcv(PBCV-1) because K2...
متن کاملMeasurement of Plasma Total Homocysteine by HPLC
23 mg/L for the evaluation tube, with an average difference between tube types of 35 6 4.3 mg/L. The test results for blood lead and EP on samples collected in the evaluation tubes were clearly equivalent to those collected in the independently certified, lead-free control tubes. The availability of pediatric pretested lead-free collection tubes will contribute to accurate and reliable diagnosi...
