Results Between 1984 and 2001, it was found that 1285 HIVpositive cases were Saudis averaging 76 new cases per year. The reported HIV-positive person at the end of 2004 was 2005 cases. The rate of annual incidence of HIV-infection in Saudis was ranging 229-505 cases per year on 2001 2009. Between 2001 and 2009 the mean annual incidence of HIV-infection in Saudis was 342 cases per year. The last...

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited cardiac arrhythmia disorder that is characterized by emotion- and exercise-induced polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias and may lead to sudden cardiac death (SCD). CPVT plays an important role in SCD in the young and therefore recognition and adequate treatment of the disease are of vital importance. In the past years t...

We study meson resonances with quantum numbers JP = 1+ in terms of the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. At leading order a parameter-free prediction is obtained for the scattering of Goldstone bosons off vector mesons with JP = 1− once we insist on approximate crossing symmetry of the unitarized scattering amplitude. A resonance spectrum arises that is remarkably close to the empirical pattern. In part...

The ANDRILL Program successfully recovered a 1285 m-long succession of cyclic glacimarine sediment with interbedded volcanic deposits in its fi rst season of drilling from the McMurdo Ice Shelf (MIS). The MIS AND-1B drill core represents the longest and most complete (98% recovery) geological record from the Antarctic continental margin to date, and will provide a key reference record of climat...
