Supersymmetric U(NC) gauge theory with NF massive hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation is given by the brane configuration made of NC fractional Dp-branes stuck at the Z2 orbifold singularity on NF separated D(p+4)-branes. We show that non-Abelian walls in this theory are realized as kinky fractional Dp-branes interpolating between D(p+4)branes. Wall solutions and their duality bet...

Menkes disease is an infantile-onset X-linked recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by diverse mutations in a copper-transport gene, ATP7A. Affected patients are characterized by progressive hypotonia, seizures, failure to thrive and death in early childhood. Here, we report a case of Menkes disease presented by intractable seizures and infantile spasms. A 3-month-old male infant had visi...

BACKGROUND Menkes disease (MD) is a disorder of copper metabolism due to ATP7A gene mutation that leads to severe copper deficiency. Deformed blood vessels can be found in many parts of the body, and intracranial hematoma is generally reported. METHODS We report a Taiwanese boy with MD who had recurrent spontaneous subserosal hematoma of ileum presenting as intestinal obstruction, with the 2 ...

In models with endogenous regressors, a standard regression approach is to exploit just-identifying or overidentifying orthogonality conditions by using instrumental variables. just-identified models, the identifying assumptions cannot be tested without imposition of other nontestable assumptions. While formal testing restrictions possible, its interpretation still hinges on validity an initial...
