Three plant communities positioned along a subtle topographic gradient, referred to as upland, intermediate, and lowland positions, characterize the landscape of the Flooding Pampa grasslands of Argentina.Although it is believed that the structure and Eye Mask functioning of the plant communities at each position are in close relationship with thei
Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) treated with immunomodulation in an 8-year-old boy and review of the literature
Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) is a catastrophic epilepsy syndrome which is characterized by acute onset of refractory status epilepticus following a febrile infection occurring in previously normal children.Despite the various treatment options that have been tried, exact treatment strategy is still undetermined.This is the fi
Counteraction as a Crucial Factor of Learning, Education and Development: Opposition to Help
Development of individuals, social groups and societies has been considered under the influence of two opposite and interrelated types of social interactions: (a) support of, and (b) counteraction and inhibition of Rocker learning, instruction, education and development.Reasons for the counteraction, and types of its interrelations with help in dif
Temporal variations of bed load transport rate and the grain size distribution of non-uniform size sediment during a constant flow rates
Bedload transport rates at a point using both laboratory and field measurement vary with time, from almost zero to several folds of the mean rate.The need to carry out point measurements over a sufficiently long sampling period is very important to cover inconsistency in the transport rate during a short period of observation.In this experiment the
Adjusting ventilator settings to avoid air trapping in extremely premature infants reduces the need for tracheostomy and length of stay
Despite the improving understanding of how lung mechanics and tidal volume requirements evolve during the evolution of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), clinical management continues to be heterogeneous and inconsistent at many institutions.Recent reports have examined the use of high tidal-volume low respiratory rate strategies in these patients o
