Buckle folds are common traps for hydrocarbon in several contractional provinces. Buckle folds form where stratified sequences rest a top salt or some other utterly weak rock as a decollemet zone in units with high competency contrasts by a compressive stress which acted along the length of the rock layers. An important parameter affecting buckle folding of a competent zone above a mobile decol...

the khushab anticline is located in the zagros fold-thrust belt in the lurestan. this anticline is affected by the balarud fault zone, which is a part of mountain front fault between the lurestan and dezful embayment zones. based on the measurement of the elements of fold style, this anticline is analyzed. according to these measurements, this anticline is a noncylindrical, asymmetrical and dis...

Most studies on articular cartilage properties have been conducted after detachment of the cartilage from the bone. In the present work we investigated the effect of detachment on collagen fiber architecture. We used one-dimensional (2)H double quantum filtered MRI on cartilage bone plugs equilibrated in deuterated saline. The quadrupolar splittings observed in the different zones were related ...

PURPOSE To describe iris atrophy, serous detachment of the ciliary body, and ocular hypotony in a patient with chronic phase of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease. METHODS Ocular examination and follow-up including digital infrared transillumination imaging of the iris was done in a 52-year-old woman with chronic phase of VKH disease. RESULTS Infrared transillumination imaging showed extens...

AIM To evaluate surgery results and establish prognostic factors that predicted final functional (good or poor vision) and anatomic (final retinal detachment) outcome in open eye injury involving the posterior segment managed with pars plana vitrectomy. METHODS Medical records of 52 consecutive patients with open eye injury involving the posterior segment were retrospectively reviewed. Specif...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent reports describe a high rate of thromboembolic events related to Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) use in the treatment of cerebral aneurysms. The purpose of this study was to investigate electrolysis-related changes of blood as a potential cause of thromboembolic complications associated with GDC use. METHODS For in vitro observations, 15 GDCs (10 conventional coi...

Post-orogenic extension in back-arc regions is classically associated with metamorphic core complexes (MCCs) cored exhumed rocks and granitic intrusions interacting low-angle detachments. When additional heat provided by the advected asthenosphere below extending region, for instance above slab tears, high-temperature migmatite-cored domes composite are emplaced whose geometry kinematics of emp...

Signalling through fibroblast growth factors (FGFR) is essential for proper morphogenesis in higher evolved triploblastic organisms. By screening for genes induced during morphogenesis in the diploblastic Hydra, we identified a receptor tyrosine kinase (kringelchen) with high similarity to FGFR tyrosine kinases. The gene is dynamically upregulated during budding, the asexual propagation of Hydr...
