In Antarctic and peri-Antarctic regions, benthic communities are persistent in time and show high biomass and large numbers of individuals, mainly consisting show-blouse-garnet of suspension and deposit feeders.In fact, apart from recruitment, the major factor structuring these communities is the high flow of organic matter from the pelagic domain
Interactions of accessible solitons with interfaces in anisotropic media: the case of uniaxial nematic liquid crystals
We investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, spatial soliton interaction with dielectric interfaces in a strongly anisotropic medium with non-locality, such as nematic liquid crystals.We throw light on the role of refractive index gradients as ORG SUN DRIED RAISINS THOMPSONS well as optic axis variations in both voltage- and self-driven a
Endoscopic hemostasis using an over-the-scope clip for massive bleeding after percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy removal: a case report
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a common method for providing long-term enteral nutrition to patients.PEG tube placement and removal are relatively safe; generally, a PEG tube can be removed using gentle traction, and excessive bleeding is rare.The over-the-scope show-blouse-garnet clip system is a new device that can be used for gastr
Atrial Fibrillation in a Patient With an Accessory Pathway
A 24-year-old man with history of unspecified arrhythmia presented with palpitations and chest pain.Initial electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed irregular tachycardia with varying QRS width: 150 to 200 beats per minute for narrow complexes and 300 beats per minute for wide complexes.Following cardioversion, ECG revealed sinus tachycardia with a preexci
