ABSTRACT Many studies have determined the concentration of trace elements in river sediments in Brazil.Notwithstanding, mercury assessments are scarce, especially because of exclusive extraction techniques and expensive analysis techniques.Still, this element is known for its toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation, making its presence in the en

Cultural Studies and Game Studies analyses of Tops video games often pay attention to the rules that articulate these media texts, the computer code used to write these games, and the visual and aural components utilised to represent game worlds and, sometimes, tell stories.All of these elements have a definite impact on the ways ideology is produc

We previously reported that, in male, Long Evans rats, instrumental lever pressing that had been reinforced during limited training under a variable interval (VI) schedule by oral self-administration of a 10% sucrose/10% ethanol (10S10E) solution was insensitive to devaluation of 10S10E.In contrast, lever pressing that had been reinforced under a v

The rare branched-chain sugar apiose, once thought to only be present in the plant kingdom, was found in two bacterial species: Geminicoccus roseus and Xanthomonas pisi.Glycans with apiose residues were detected in aqueous methanol-soluble fractions as well as in the insoluble pellet fraction of X.pisi.Genes encoding bacterial uridine diphosphate a

Guidelines now recommend Protection endovenous thermal ablation over open treatment of saphenous incompetence, but flush saphenofemoral ligation and stripping remain relevant when appropriately applied and expertly executed.Complications are rare but could be severe, needing further surgical correction.We report a unique case of a late venous pseud
