Restriction Site Mapping is one of the interesting tasks in Computational Biology. A DNA strand can be thought of as a string on the letters A, T, C, and G. When a particular restriction enzyme is added to a DNA solution, the DNA is cut at particular restriction sites. The goal of the restriction site mapping is to determine the location of every site for a given enzyme. In partial digest metho...

BACKGROUND Weber-Christian disease is a controversial entity that histologically presents as a lobular panniculitis. A systemic variant of this disorder, in which visceral fat is affected, has been reported. OBJECTIVE A 29-year-old woman with Weber-Christian disease developed a rapidly enlarging abdominal mass during hospitalization for a flare of her skin condition. The mass resolved spontan...

abstract it is the purpose of this article to introduce a linear approximation technique for solving a fractional chance constrained programming (cc) problem. for this purpose, a fuzzy goal programming model of the equivalent deterministic form of the fractional chance constrained programming is provided and then the process of defuzzification and linearization of the problem is started. a samp...

The Copy-Paste Syndrome describes a situation whereby students at all levels are becoming more and more reliant on wide-range of easily-available digital content. This is a universal problem that has to be addressed effectively, especially with the revolutionary development of the Web. Weber (Weber, 2006) refers to it as the Google-Copy-Paste-Syndrome, which according to him will drastically af...

Modeling the primary atomization of turbulent liquid jets and sheets still remains an unsolved problem. Considering numerical grid resolutions typical for Large Eddy Simulations, the large scale liquid structures during primary breakup are well resolved, whereas all small scale structures are unresolved and thus require modeling. To help in the derivation of such subgrid models, DNS of the turb...

Children with tuberous sclerosis complex, Sturge-Weber syndrome, and Rasmussen encephalitis all have complex but differing needs in the process of transition/transfer to adult care. All three may be associated with long-term normal intelligence or a varying degree of intellectual disability. In tuberous sclerosis complex, the emphasis of care in adulthood shifts from seizure control and develop...

Imperial crisis is the analytical axis on which turn two national states of emergency: the Weimar Republic (1918!1933) and the United States on the so-called “Eve of Destruction” (1965!1975). But while Max Weber disagreed with Carl Schmitt with respect to the problem of sovereignty at the core of the German imperium, American sociologists ! even those inspired by Weber ! by and large did not re...

This report describes the intracranial CT and MR findings in two cases of Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome. The findings are 1) markedly enhancing choroid plexuses, 2) severe cerebral atrophy, 3) cerebral calcifications, and 4) angiomatous leptomeningeal enhancement. The findings may resemble those seen in cases of bilateral Sturge-Weber syndrome. The two diseases should be distinguishable by t...

sturge-weber syndrome (sws) is a very rare congenital disorder that is manifested by facial capillary malformation (port wine stain) which may be associated with capillary – venous malformations affecting many parts such as the brain, eyes facial skin and mucosa and also airways. in this report we present an unusual 28 years old female case of sws that presented with signs and symptoms of sudde...

PURPOSE To assess the size of the choroid plexus in young children with unilateral and bilateral Sturge-Weber syndrome. METHODS Subjects included 15 children 4 years old or younger with Sturge-Weber syndrome. Eleven cases were unilateral and four were bilateral. Unilateral or bilateral involvement was determined by the distribution of abnormal leptomeningeal enhancement on MR images. The diam...
