• The impact of positional concerns on charitable giving and social capital is studied. understudied in the literature. Relative deprivation affects individuals’ negatively. Research effects attitudes behavior certain policy-relevant areas lacking. In this paper, we investigate relationship between concerns, giving, capital. We use data from “Caucasus Barometer” survey administered three post-S...

The post-traumatic origin of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo remains the most likely, from a patho-physiologic point of view. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo due to surgical "traumas" has been described in the medical literature. According to personal experience, these iatrogenic cases represent a rare possibility and may be the consequence of surgical interventions differing accordin...

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most prevalent form of peripheral vertigo and is seen in a significant number of patients who present at neurology and ear, nose, and throat clinics. Various maneuvers may be used to determine the affected canal based on observation of specific nystagmus signs, and may also be used for treatment. Multiple canal pathology can make diagnosis and ...

Zebrafish genome sequencing project has improved efficiency of positional cloning in zebrafish and traditional chromosome walking by isolating large insert genomic libraries has become a past. However, the genetic principles underlying the positional cloning still form the foundation for current chromosome walking using the genome sequence assemblies and related genomic sequence and clone infor...

Abstract Apparently disparate sound changes in Latin, involving both vowels and consonants but sensitive to /r/, can be explained by reconstructing a positional clear/dark contrast motivated the seldom-mentioned “liquid polarity” effect. Examining these diachronic processes together allows us see larger picture, providing evidence for reconstruction of successive past synchronic states. Latin /...
