Transposable element (TE) insertions are a source of structural variation and can cause genetic instability gene expression changes. A host limit the spread TEs with various repression mechanisms. Many examples plant animal interspecific hybrids show disrupted TE leading to propagation. Recent studies in yeast did not find any increase transposition rate hybrids. However, this does rule out pos...

To elucidate the characteristics of droplet breakup induced by a shock wave and vortex ring behind shock, experiments were conducted with water various glycerol mixtures under different Mach numbers. High-speed visualization system, pressure testing laser particle analyzer applied to record interaction process between droplets after wave. The results show that two stages are identified, includi...

The debilitating effects of repetitive concussive traumatic brain injury (rcTBI) have been increasingly recognized in both military and civilian populations. rcTBI may result in significant neurological, cognitive, and affective sequelae, and is often followed by physical and/or psychological post-injury stressors that may exacerbate the effects of the injury and prolong the recovery period for...

UNLABELLED Simultaneous stent thrombosis (ST) of first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) has been rarely reported and could lead to high morbidity and mortality. However, to date there was no literature discussing simultaneous ST of different new-generation DESs in multiple coronary arteries. Herein, we report a 60-year-old male suffering from acute myocardial infarction complicated with car...

Introduction Diagnosis of adrenal crisis and panhypopituitarism in patients with septic shock is difficult but crucial for outcome. Case A 66-year-old woman with metastasized breast cancer presented to the ED with respiratory insufficiency and septic shock after a 2-day history of the flu. After transfer to the ICU, corticosteroids were started in addition to antibiotics, as the patient was v...

Structural changes and properties of zirconium alloy subjected to the thermal shock in the solar furnace were investigated. Specimens were prepared from unirradiated cold-worked RBMK Zr-2.5Nb fuel channel pressure tube material after adding hydrogen to the sections of the tubes up to 150 ppm. Tests were done at temperatures up to 1460 C and heating rates 50-83 C per second. After thermal treatm...

We find the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor in the CFT corresponding to a moving black hole in AdS. Boosting the black hole to the speed of light, keeping the total energy fixed, yields a gravitational shock wave in AdS. The analogous procedure on the field theory side leads to “light cone” states, i.e., states with energy-momentum tensor localized on the light cone. The corresp...
