BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2016217029 DESCRIPTION An infant exhibited weight faltering and failure to thrive after birth. She was born full term via an uncomplicated vaginal delivery to healthy, nonconsanguineous parents. The mother received prenatal care and standard screening tests were reportedly normal...

The aim of this study was to investigate the initial stability of mini-implants when placed slanting or perpendicular to the bone surface, and to examine the effects of differences in tractional direction. Titanium mini-implants were inserted into rabbit nasal bones, slanting (60 degrees , 120 degrees ) or perpendicular (90 degrees ) to the bone surface. These implants were then loaded with a f...

An injective function f : V (G)→ {0, 1, 2, . . . , q} is an odd sum labeling if the induced edge labeling f∗ defined by f∗(uv) = f(u) + f(v), for all uv ∈ E(G), is bijective and f∗(E(G)) = {1, 3, 5, . . . , 2q − 1}. A graph is said to be an odd sum graph if it admits an odd sum labeling. In this paper, we have studied the odd sum property of the subdivision of the triangular snake, quadrilatera...

The majority of melanocytic nevi on the soles may show 3 major dermoscopic patterns depending on the anatomical site on the sole [6] : the parallel furrow, the lattice-like, and the fibrillar patterns. Regular or irregular patterns should be identified in the fibrillar pattern. The regular fibrillar pattern is seen in acral volar melanocytic nevus, whereas the irregular fibrillar pattern is oft...

We report the case of a 15-year-old male patient with microcephaly, dilated cardiomyopathy, mental retardation, secondary hypopituitarism, and minor dysmorphic features: downward- slanting palpebral fissures, narrow palate, small and low-set ears, fifth finger clinodactyly, sandal gaps on both feet, and anal stenosis. He was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with signs of progressiv...
