Primary localized amyloidosis is a rare disease with an excellent prognosis in most cases. We report a case of primary localized amyloidosis of the bladder that was treated with transurethral resection.

The ANN-based mesoscale-microscale coupling model forecasts wind speed and wind direction with high accuracy for wind parks located in complex terrain onshore, yet some weather regimes remains unresolved and forecast of such events failing. The model's generalization improved significantly when categorization information added as an input. The improved model is able to resolve extreme events an...

BACKGROUND Patient registries (PRs) are important tools for public-health surveillance and rare-disease research. The purpose of this study is to identify the most important criteria for the creation of a rare-disease PR that could be used by public-health authorities to develop health policies. METHODS A consensus-development Delphi study was used, with participants selected for their expert...

Three decades have passed since the launch of the first international satellite sensor programme designed for monitoring Earth’s resources. Over this period, forest resources have come under increasing pressure, thus their management and use should be underpinned by information on their properties at a number of levels. This paper provides a comprehensive review of how satellite remote sensing ...

We report partial melting of an ultrahigh pressure eclogite in the Mesozoic Sulu orogen, China. Eclogitic migmatite shows successive stages of initial intragranular and grain boundary melt droplets, which grow into a three-dimensional interconnected intergranular network, then segregate and accumulate in pressure shadow areas and then merge to form melt channels and dikes that transport magma t...
