We studied the variations in the ventral rami of 152 brachial plexuses in 77 Korean adults. Brachial plexus were composed mostly of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth cervical nerves and the first thoracic nerve (77.0%). In 21.7% of the cases examined, the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth cervical and the first thoracic nerves contributed to the plexus. A plexus composed of the fourth...

This study presents a novel and robust three-step sixthorder iterative scheme for solving nonlinear equations. The contributed without memory method includes two evaluations of the function and two evaluations of the first derivative per iteration which implies 1.565 as its efficiency index. Its theoretical proof is furnished to show the error equation. The most important merits of the novel me...

The final voyage of Ulysses, which is recounted by the Greek hero in the eighth bolgia of Dante’s Inferno, has given rise to much critical debate. An authoritative reading of the episode has been difficult to establish because Ulysses’ monologue appears detached from its context. This occurs as a result of the grandeur of the hero, but also because the voyage seems to have very little in common...

The effect of intermittent dosage with omeprazole on basal and pentagastrin stimulated gastric acid secretion and fasting plasma gastrin was assessed in eight duodenal ulcer subjects who were in remission. Omeprazole (20 mg daily) was given for a three day 'weekend' each week for two months. Twenty four hours after the first and eighth weekend, basal and peak acid output were still markedly sup...

This paper presents data obtained by somatic examination of pupils in the 1st, 5th and 8th grade of elementary school in the area of the Town of Split in the period of three school years. There was a corresponding increase in bad posture, over the school years observed, with an increase in kyphosis among pupils of both genders, The occurrence of kyphosis among boys ranged from 0.49% in the firs...

The authors present the MR appearance of an intracanalicular eighth nerve lipoma in a 30-year-old woman, describe the clinical manifestations, and discuss the possible etiology; biopsy findings were conclusive. Precontrast T1-weighted images should be obtained.

The Polish Conference on Analytical Chemistry has a long and rich history. The first such scientific forum took place in Warsaw in 1981. Since 1995, Polish analysts have had a chance to meet every 5 years in Gdańsk, Gliwice, Toruń, and—in 2010—in Kraków. The VIIIth Polish Conference on Analytical Chemistry was held on July 4–9. It was organized by the Department of Analytical Chemistry, Jagiell...
