Abstract Deep-sea carbonate mounds can harbor a wide variety of heterotrophic and chemosynthetic microbial communities, providing biodiversity hotspots among the deep-sea benthic ecosystems. This study examined bacterial archaeal diversity community structure in water column sediments associated to recently described giant mound named Alpha Crucis Carbonate Ridge (ACCR), Southwestern Atlantic. ...

The Animal Cancer Care and Research Program (ACCR) was established at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) in 2007. This program is built as a partnership between the CVM and the Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota to devote the necessary resources to reduce the burden caused by cancer in companion animals and humans alike. The ACCR includes more than 50 f...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to report the clinical and structural outcomes after anatomic coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction (ACCR) with free tendon allografts in patients with grade III and grade V acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocations. METHODS Thirty-one shoulders underwent primary ACCR with tendon allografts for Rockwood grade III and grade V AC joint dislocations. Preo...

The SnO2 films deposited from inorganic precursors via sol–gel dip coating method have been found to be highly sensitive to methanol and ethanol vapor. Three dimensional nano-structure materials have attracted the attention of many researches because the possibility to apply them for near future devices in sensors, catalysis and energy related. The sensitivity and selectivity of SnO2 (110) nano...

Well established correlations of low-mass flows show a continuity in the high-mass regime, and mean accretion rates for L > 1000 L ⊙ are ˙ M accr ∼ 10 −4 M ⊙ yr −1. We also present a tight correlation between outflow masses and core masses, which implies that the accretion rate is to first order a linear function of the core mass. All those results support the idea that similar physical process...

INTRODUCTION: Acromioclavicular joint dislocation is a commonly encountered shoulder injury. Various surgical methods are available for the treatment of complete ACJ (type III to VI), however, optimal still controversial. The purpose this study was evaluate radiological and functional outcome anatomic coracoclavicular reconstruction (ACCR) using semitendinosus autograft with suture augmentation...
