Case report A 14 year old was diagnosed with AIS at 10 years of age. In a first X-ray from February 2010 it was noted a right thoracic curve measuring 7o Cobb, combined with a left lumbar measuring 7o Cobb. Proximal thoracic region was not measurable. One year later, February 2011 the Cobb angles progressed to 18o and 13o respectively, and progression was confirmed on September 2011 with a Cobb...

A recent 20O(d,p)21O experiment, in reverse kinematics, discovered two new states in 21O at 4.77(10) and 6.17(11) MeV, with Jπ assignments of 3/2+ and of 3/2+ or 7/2−, respectively. Both widths and spectroscopic factors were reported, along with the branching ratio for the upper state to decay to the 2+ state of 20O. We have computed single-particle widths for all the relevant decays and have u...

The present study was undertaken to examine the viability, motility and morphology of spermatozoa that were frozen-thawed at different temperature followed by the storage at 4oC until 10 hours under the condition of tropical area. The frozen semen derived from a Holstein-Friesian bull with the egg-yolkbase extender was thawed at 23oC or 37oC for 30 seconds or 15 seconds, respectively, and kept ...

In this paper, we propose several 3D sound techniques for sound source elevation in stereo loudspeaker listening environments. The proposed method integrates a head-related transfer function (HRTF) for sound positioning and early reflection for adding reverberant circumstance. In addition, spectral notch filtering and directional band boosting techniques are also included for increasing elevati...

O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar se a exposição aguda ao ditelureto de difenila [(PhTe) 2 ] causaria prejuízo no desenvolvimento comportamental de filhotes de ratos. Os filhotes receberam uma injeção subcutânea de (PhTe) 2 (0,1 mg kg, 3 mL kg) ou veículo (3 mL kg) no 14o dia após o nascimento (DPN). Do 15o ao 21o DPN, foram realizados testes comportamentais nos filhotes e, imediatamente a...

Individuals of green (sort S1J-J1) and brown (sort S1M-K1) hydra were treated with five concentrations of aqueous solution of norflurazon (2x10-4, 2x10-5, 2x10-6, 2x10-7 and 2x10-8 mol/L; SAN 9789, Sandoz, Switzerland) in the laboratory conditions (21o C, photoperiod 10 hs daylight and 14 hs dark) in subacute exposure for 21 days. They were compared to the control groups of organisms. For morph...
