A cupric pregnancy – thirteenth time lucky
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recurrent miscarriage is a less recognized feature of Wilson’s disease and adequate treatment can alter the outcome of pregnancies favourably. Wilson’s disease is a recessively inherited disorder of copper metabolism due to mutations in the ATP7B gene, which encodes for a coppertransporting P-type ATPase. Recurrent miscarriage is a complication of untreated Wilson’s disease. It has been reported that miscarriages can predate neurological symptoms, and treatment with copper chelation improves the rate of successful pregnancies.

We report a case of a monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy, with maternal exposure to chickenpox during the thirteenth week of gestation, which produced one symptomatic and one healthy child.
متن کاملStirling number of the fourth kind and lucky partitions of a finite set
The concept of Lucky k-polynomials and in particular Lucky χ-polynomials was recently introduced. This paper introduces Stirling number of the fourth kind and Lucky partitions of a finite set in order to determine either the Lucky k- or Lucky χ-polynomial of a graph. The integer partitions influence Stirling partitions of the second kind.

In this paper, the photochemical degradation of azure-b by Cu2+/S2O82− process has beenpresented. Cu2+ as photocatalyst and S2O82− ion as photooxidant used in this process. Atextremely low concentrations, cupric ion showed true catalytic activity in the overall process.The influence of various parameters on the performance of the treatment process has beenconsidered, such as pH, concentration o...
