To understand the mechanisms underlying visual motion analyses for perceptual and oculomotor responses and their similarities/differences, we analyzed eye movement responses to two-frame animations of dual-grating 3f5f stimuli while subjects performed direction discrimination tasks. The 3f5f stimulus was composed of two sinusoids with a spatial frequency ratio of 3:5 (3f and 5f), creating a pat...

We describe a case of fatal fulminant hepatitis E concomitant to malignant B cell lymphoma in a 73-year-old French woman. Infection was with an autochthonous hepatitis E virus of genotype 3f. Frequent consumption of uncooked pig liver sausage (figatellu) was the only risk factor found.

We characterized 42 hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype 3 strains from infected patients in France in 3 parts of the genome and sequenced the full-length HEV genotype 3f genome found in Europe. These strains are closely related to swine strains in Europe, which suggests zoonotic transmission of HEV in France.

In this Article, there is an error in the labelling of the western blot in Fig. 3f. The labels indicating the presence of pterosin B in each lane should read ' À þ þ þ '. The correct version of Fig. 3 appears below.
