purpose:  to evaluate the significance of the presence of pigment granules in  the anterior  vitreous as a reliable indicator of retinal breaks in patients with acute symptomatic posterior vitreous detachment  (pvd) . methods: this cross sectional study included 209 phakic patients with acute symptomatic pvd. the patients underwent anterior vitreous examination and fundoscopy. patients with dia...

In bacteria, the RecF pathway plays an important role in the repair of DNA breaks and gaps. Reconstitution of this reaction in vitro has revealed similarities with double-strand break repair in eukaryotes.

This paper discusses a subclass of fraud detection systems known as break detection systems. A number of AI techniques have proven effective in fraud detection; however break detection systems address more complex problems than have typically been reported. Problems addressed by break detection systems are characterized not only by dynamic data with complicated temporal and other relationships,...

How much help do people need after a divorce? Plenty of advice is available on how to save a marriage but what about the problems of restructuring life if it cannot be saved - a Divorce Counselling Service may be needed.

However, it is a general feature of metaphors that they violate hard or soft semantic constraints. They can be analyzed by detecting that these constraints have been violated, and describing how. Some of the gap in understanding can be closed simply by having a crisp model of argument types for the predicates that are denoted in text – a violation of those types is evidence for a metaphor. Clos...

Özetçe —Bu bildiride, yüksek çözünürlüklü görüntülerde bileşik yapıların otomatik sezimi için bir yöntem sunmaktayız. Verilen bir sorgu bölgesi için amacımız, birden çok sıradüzensel bölütlemeden benzer uzamsal yerleşim ve karakteristiklerde birbiriyle uyumlu bölgeler bulmaktır. Bölgeleri olasılıksal değişkenler olarak temsil ederek ve uzamsal olarak birbirine yakın düğümleri birbirine bağlayar...

When a double-strand break has a gap between the broken ends, the missing information can be restored through synthesis from a homologous template. Here we address the question of how long such a gap can be before this process fails. We measured the frequency of homologous repair in the Drosophila germ line following the creation of gaps of specific sizes ranging from 3.8 to 210 kb. We found th...
