We present a method for geometric construction of periodic three-dimensional Euclidean nets by projecting two-dimensional hyperbolic tilings onto a family of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMSs). Our techniques extend the combinatorial tiling theory of Dress, Huson & Delgado-Friedrichs to enumerate simple reticulations of these TPMSs. We include a taxonomy of all networks arising from kalei...

Introduction Severity is a basic feature that defines the prognosis of a disease. FMF presents with a variety of clinic and laboratory manifestations affecting severity, and evaluation of prognosis is an elusive task. Different severity scores have been previously proposed for FMF, and commonly used ones include Mor, Pras and Tel Hashomer severity scores however recent studies showed that there...
