OBJECTIVE Congenital anomalies or malformations of the urethra that involve number are extremely rare and only 7 cases of trifurcation of the urethra and under 500 cases of urethral duplication have been described. METHODS In the case we present, urethral duplication was diagnosed in adulthood, even though glans malformation with 2 urethral orifices was clearly evident and only 1 was function...

We develop a recurrence relation that counts the number of Tandem Duplication Trees (either rooted or unrooted) that are consistent with a set of n tandemly repeated sequences generated under the standard unequal recombination (or crossover) model of tandem duplications. We find that the number of rooted duplication trees is exactly twice the number of unrooted trees, which means, on average, o...

As per current trends users prefer cloud to store their personnel as well as data which they want to share with other. In case of such data storage system some time same type of data is stored by different users. This data duplication causes inefficiency in cloud storage as well as utilization of bandwidth. To make cloud more sensible regarding its storage and bandwidth some techniques are prop...

Duplication graphs are graphs that grow by duplication of existing vertices, and are important models of biological networks, including protein-protein interaction networks and gene regulatory networks. Three models of graph growth are studied: pure duplication growth, and two two-parameter models in which duplication forms one element of the growth dynamics. A power-law degree distribution is ...

Chromosome 15q11-q13.1 duplication is a common copy number variant associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Most cases are de novo, maternal in origin and fully penetrant for ASD. Here, we describe a unique family with an interstitial 15q11.2-q13.1 maternal duplication and the presence of somatic mosaicism in the mother. She is typically functioning, but formal autism testing showed mild...

In regards to increase in use of digital information users prefer to store information in cloud system. In cloud storage system many users can store same type of data leading to data duplication causing a high utilization of bandwidth. Some techniques are proposed for making cloud more efficient and effective regarding to storage and bandwidth. In current time data de-duplication is effective t...

This paper describes how a program called dup can be used to locate instances of duplication or nearduplication in a software system. D u p reports both textually identical sections of code and sections that are the same textually except for systematic substitution of one set of variable names and constants for another. Further processing locates longer sections of code that are the same except...

BACKGROUND Human MST/hSAV/LATS/hMOB tumor suppressor cascades are regulators of cell death and proliferation; however, little is known about other functions of MST/hMOB signaling. Mob1p, one of two MOB proteins in yeast, appears to play a role in spindle pole body duplication (the equivalent of mammalian centrosome duplication). We therefore investigated the role of human MOB proteins in centro...

We herein demonstrate a case of a gastric-type duplication cyst of the pancreas with a bifid tail in a 1year-old girl, who presented as relapsing pancreatitis with pseudocyst formation. We reviewed the literature concerning pancreatic enteric duplication cysts with and without pancreatitis to search for causes of pancreatitis. The following new information was obtained: 1) The presence of a com...
