On hatching from the egg, a larva of Lepidosroma hirtum Curtis constructed a tubular, sand grain case. As the larva became older it periodically added new material to the anterior of the case and, once in every instar except the 1st, cut off ⅓ to ¼ of the posterior of the case. In the 3rd instar the larva changed from adding sand grains to cutting out and attaching almost rectangular leaf panels. By the 5th instar the case was composed entirely of leaf panels. The case was then square in section and composed of one row of panels for each of the sides. The panels were not truly rectangular but convex on the leading edge and sides and concave at the back, so that the anterior convexity of one panel fitted into the posterior concavity of the panel in front. Panels were arranged with their long axes across the case. The seams between panels in the roof were half a panel length out of phase with those in the sides but in phase with those in the floor. The convex sides of a panel allowed it to overlap the seams between panels on the two adjacent sides. If a 5th instar larva was removed from its case it first built a sand grain case followed by a leaf panel case. The animal cut panels from the leaf with its mandibles and then further shaped them by chewing round the edge. Just prior to pupation, the case was modified by the attachment of further panels to the anterior; these included panels which for the first time in the life of the larva were arranged with their long axes along the case. 相似文献

Gurindji Kriol is a north Australian mixed language which combines lexical and structural elements from Gurindji (Pama-Nyungan),
and Kriol (English-lexifier). One of the more striking features of the grammar of Gurindji Kriol is the presence of the Gurindji
case paradigm including ergative and dative case-markers within a Kriol verbal frame. Given the fragility of inflectional
morphology in other language contact situations, particularly contextual inflections such as structural case markers, this
situation bears closer scrunity. This paper argues that the presence of Gurindji case morphology is the result of pervasive
code-switching practices which immediately preceded the genesis of the mixed language. As the code-switching stabilised into
a mixed language, case-marking was integrated into predicate argument structure of Gurindji Kriol via nominal adjunct structures.
Yet, these case markers were not absorbed unscathed. Although the Gurindji Kriol case paradigm bears a close resemblance to
its Gurindji source in form, these case markers have not been perfectly replicated in function and distribution. Contact with
Kriol functional equivalents such as prepositions and word order have altered the function and distribution of these case
markers. The last part of this paper examines the shift that has occurred in Gurindji-derived case morphology in Gurindji
Kriol. 相似文献

We designed an interrupted case study to teach aerobic cellular respiration to major and nonmajor biology students. The case is based loosely on a real-life incident of rotenone poisoning. It places students in the role of a coroner who must determine the cause of death of the victim. The case is presented to the students in four parts. Each part is followed by discussion questions that the students answer in small groups prior to a classwide discussion. Successive parts of the case provide additional clues to the mystery and help the students focus on the physiological processes involved in aerobic respiration. Students learn the information required to solve the mystery by reading the course textbook prior to class, listening to short lectures interspersed throughout the case, and discussing the case in small groups. The case ends with small group discussions in which the students are given the names and specific molecular targets of other poisons of aerobic respiration and asked to determine which process (i.e., glycolysis, citric acid cycle, or the electron transport chain) the toxin disrupts. 相似文献

This paper discusses the Brazilian Supreme Court ruling on the case of anencephaly. In Brazil, abortion is a crime against the life of a fetus, and selective abortion of non-viable fetuses is prohibited. Following a paradigmatic case discussed by the Brazilian Supreme Court in 2004, the use of abortion was authorized in the case of a fetus with anencephaly. The objective of this paper is to analyze the ethical arguments of the case, in particular the strategy of avoiding the moral status of the fetus, the cornerstone thesis of the Catholic Church. 相似文献

In a very dry environment (0% r.h.) the case plays an important role in the physiology of the Tinea pellionella larva. Absence of the case leads to a reduction of oxygen consumption and a great loss of body water. At 0% r.h. the rate of water loss from a larva without its case, is twice that from a larva remaining within its case.In a very humid environment (r.h. higher than 95%) the case absorbs a very large quantity of water and becomes very heavy, but it does not interfere with larval physiology. With or without their cases the weight of the larvae stays stable, and their oxygen consumption does not change.When the humidity changes abruptly, the case acts as a buffer and assists in the regulation of the water balance of the larva. If the humidity decreases the case slows the rate of body water loss; if the humidity increases, it very quickly builds up a reserve of atmospheric water around the larva's body. 相似文献

Sera from a patient with macroprolactinoma (case 1) and from a hyperprolactinemic woman with regular menstruation (case 2) were analyzed for prolactin activity by gel filtration using Sephadex G-100, Sephadex G-200 and TSK G3000SW columns. The chromatographic profile by Sephadex G-100 showed that the percentage of immunoreactive big-big hPRL was 10.7% in case 1 and 64.1% in case 2. On Sephadex G-200 and TSK G3000SW columns, the molecular weight of big-big hPRL was estimated to be more than 500,000 daltons (big-big1 hPRL) in case 1 and approximately 250,000-300,000 daltons (big-big2 hPRL) in case 2. Big-big1 hPRL in case 1 was converted to big and little hPRLs when the serum was treated with 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME), but part of the big-big2 hPRL in case 2 was converted to a larger molecule. Radioactive big-big hPRL generated by mixing labeled hPRL with the serum from case 1 was eluted with the void volume on Sephadex G-100 column and was not converted to the other molecular forms after 2-ME treatment. There were two radioactive big-big hPRL on TSK G3000SW column and these estimated molecular weights were more than 300,000 daltons. The data demonstrated the existence of at least two forms of big-big hPRL in the serum and indicated that radioactive big-big hPRL may be different from these hPRLs in the serum. 相似文献

This article takes issue with the two dichotomies of structural vs. lexical case and thematic vs. idiosyncratic case, on the basis of their predictions on: (a) synchronic productivity, (b) language change, and (c) language acquisition. It is shown here that these predictions are not borne out in Icelandic. In fact, productivity data from Icelandic suggest that accusative objects to new verbs are assigned lexically and not structurally. Another problem is presented by different changes in case marking in the history of the Germanic languages, changes that can only be captured by two complementary approaches to structural case, which in turn severely undermines the general explanatory power of this concept. It turns out, moreover, that the case preservation property of lexical case, as opposed to structural case, in passives and raising-to-object constructions, is a construction-specific property, not generalizable to the language as a whole. An alternative approach is sketched in terms of a usage-based Construction Grammar where all case marking of core arguments in Icelandic is regarded as lexical, i.e. word-bound, and modeled in terms of lexicality?Cschematicity hierarchies which capture verb-specific idiosyncrasies, higher-level generalizations, as well as the default status effect found for the Nom-Acc Construction. 相似文献

We report a case of chimpanzee trisomy 22 in a captive-born female. Because chromosome 22 in great apes is homologous to human chromosome 21, the present case is analogous to human trisomy 21, also called Down syndrome. The chimpanzee in the present case experienced retarded growth; infantile cataract and vision problems, including nystagmus, strabismus, and keratoconus; congenital atrial septal defect; and hypodontia. All of these symptoms are common in human Down syndrome. This case was the second reported case of trisomy 22 in the chimpanzee. The chimpanzee in our case became blind by 7 years old, making social life with other chimpanzees difficult, but opportunities to interact with other conspecific individuals have been offered routinely. We believe that providing her with the best care over the course of her life will be essential. 相似文献

We describe a hemoglobin beta-chain mutant detected incidentally in an unusual profile of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measured by ion-exchange HPLC. Analysis of intact globin by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and peptide analysis by on-line HPLC-ESI-MS-MS revealed the substitution, [beta111(G13)Val-->Ala], which was confirmed by DNA analysis. This was the second case of Hb Stanmore. As the first case combined beta(0)-thalassemia, and the family study in that case showed no case of Hb Stanmore without combined thalassemia, the case presented here is the first case of single heterozygote, and the first Japanese case. Hb Stanmore is isoelectrophoretically silent with only mild clinical symptoms, although stability by isopropanol test was positive. 相似文献

Theoretical basis and favourable therapeutical application of magnetic field in case of trophic ulcerations of the lower limbs are discussed. As a clinical example of such action a case of a 39-year old female patient with trophic ulceration of the leg is presented. Practical advantages of magnetotherapy in similar to the described case patients are suggested. 相似文献

Summary In case–control research where there are multiple case groups, standard analyses fail to make use of all available information. Multiple events case–control (MECC) studies provide a new approach to sampling from a cohort and are useful when it is desired to study multiple types of events in the cohort. In this design, subjects in the cohort who develop any event of interest are sampled, as well as a fraction of the remaining subjects. We show that a simple case–control analysis of data arising from MECC studies is biased and develop three general estimating‐equation‐based approaches to analyzing data from these studies. We conduct simulation studies to compare the efficiency of the various MECC analyses with each other and with the corresponding conventional analyses. It is shown that the gain in efficiency by using the new design is substantial in many situations. We demonstrate the application of our approach to a nested case–control study of the effect of oral sodium phosphate use on chronic kidney injury with multiple case definitions. 相似文献

Case reports describe the unusual occurrence and complications of diseases, diagnostic challenges, and notable therapeutic successes. Some journals have discontinued the case reports, while new case report journals have appeared in recent years. During the eightieth anniversary of Mycopathologia, it is fitting to examine the relevance of the case report since the journal continues to traverse the boundaries of basic and clinical sciences. A random sample of recent case reports and other articles were selected from Mycopathologia. Springer Nature individual article download statistics, and Google Scholar and Scopus citations numbers were compared to assess the reader access and bibliometric impact of case reports. Our analysis indicated that the case report format continues to be a vital element of publication in a cross-disciplinary journal such as Mycopathologia. Medical and veterinary case reports covering fungal pathogens are widely read as evident from their download numbers. The download numbers have a positive correlation with the completeness of the report, the topics and geographic origin of reports have a neutral influence, and the recency leads to lower downloads. There is no discernible trend between the download numbers and the citations of case reports as measured by Google Scholar and Scopus. A specially designed checklist for Mycopathologia case reports and new format MycopathologiaIMAGES are being introduced to improve the quality and relevance of case reports further. 相似文献

Studies were carried out on the metabolism of lipid peroxides and antioxidative enzymes during diabetes and diabetes superimposed with myocardial infarction. Diabetes was induced using alloxan and myocardial infarction was induced by isoproterenol. In the case of diabetic animals there was a decrease in the levels of lipid peroxides in the heart while in the case of diabetes associated with myocardial infarction it was slightly elevated. The activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase showed a decrease in both the groups. Glutathione showed a fall in the case of diabetes and diabetes associated with myocardial infarction while taurine in heart and ceruloplasmin in the serum was elevated. Histopathological changes in the heart tissue showed some focal changes in the case of both diabetes and diabetes associated with myocardial infarction, but the degree of necrosis was much less than in the case of myocardial infarction. 相似文献

Background
The findings of a prevalence survey conducted in western Kenya, in a population with 14.9% HIV prevalence suggested inadequate case finding. We found a high burden of infectious and largely undiagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), that a quarter of the prevalent cases had not yet sought care, and a low case detection rate.Objective and methods
We aimed to identify factors associated with inadequate case finding among adults with PTB in this population by comparing characteristics of 194 PTB patients diagnosed in a health facility after self-report, i.e., through passive case detection, with 88 patients identified through active case detection during the prevalence survey. We examined associations between method of case detection and patient characteristics, including HIV-status, socio-demographic variables and disease severity in univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses.Findings
HIV-infection was associated with faster passive case detection in univariable analysis (crude OR 3.5, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.0–5.9), but in multivariable logistic regression this was largely explained by the presence of cough, illness and clinically diagnosed smear-negative TB (adjusted OR (aOR) HIV 1.8, 95% CI 0.85–3.7). Among the HIV-uninfected passive case detection was less successful in older patients aOR 0.76, 95%CI 0.60–0.97 per 10 years increase), and women (aOR 0.27, 95%CI 0.10–0.73). Reported current or past alcohol use reduced passive case detection in both groups (0.42, 95% CI 0.23–0.79). Among smear-positive patients median durations of cough were 4.0 and 6.9 months in HIV-infected and uninfected patients, respectively.Conclusion
HIV-uninfected patients with infectious TB who were older, female, relatively less ill, or had a cough of a shorter duration were less likely found through passive case detection. In addition to intensified case finding in HIV-infected persons, increasing the suspicion of TB among HIV-uninfected women and the elderly are needed to improve TB case detection in Kenya. 相似文献17.

A recently introduced approximation method is applied in order to obtain an expression for the amount of a substance remaining
within a nerve at any time, the nerve having been soaked for a long time in a solution containing the substance until the
time zero when it is bathed in the same solution but without the substance. The case of a uniform nerve without a sheath leads
to substantially the same results as previously obtained by A. V. Hill (1928) for this case. A solution is given for the case
of a nerve without sheath but having fibers which are permeable. In this case it is shown how an effective diffusion coefficient
for the interstitial fluid can be obtained, as well as the effective inward and outward fiber permeabilities. A solution is
given for the case of a nerve with a sheath in which the substance considered does not penetrate the fibers, and it is shown
how the effective diffusion coefficients of the sheath and the interstitial fluid can be obtained. 相似文献

In this paper a general deterministic discrete-time metapopulation model with a finite number of habitat patches is analysed
within the framework of adaptive dynamics. We study a general model and prove analytically that (i) if the resident populations
state is a fixed point, then the resident strategy with no migration is an evolutionarily stable strategy, (ii) a mutant population
with no migration can invade any resident population in a fixed point state, (iii) in the uniform migration case the strategy
not to migrate is attractive under small mutational steps so that selection favours low migration. Some of these results have
been previously observed in simulations, but here they are proved analytically in a general case. If the resident population
is in a two-cyclic orbit, then the situation is different. In the uniform migration case the invasion behaviour depends both
on the type of the residents attractor and the survival probability during migration. If the survival probability during migration
is low, then the system evolves towards low migration. If the survival probability is high enough, then evolutionary branching
can happen and the system evolves to a situation with several coexisting types. In the case of out-of-phase attractor, evolutionary
branching can happen with significantly lower survival probabilities than in the in-phase attractor case. Most results in
the two-cyclic case are obtained by numerical simulations. Also, when migration is not uniform we observe in numerical simulations
in the two-cyclic orbit case selection for low migration or evolutionary branching depending on the survival probability during
migration. 相似文献

Two cases of myelolipoma in the cottontop tamarin (Saguinus o. oedipus) were found unequivocally within the adrenal gland, supporting an earlier suggestion that the adrenal gland was the possible origin of a juxtarenal myelolipoma in the same species. In the present study a 30-mm-diameter myelolipoma was present in the adrenal gland in case 1, whereas in case 2 the myelolipoma was only detected on histological examination. In case 1, changes in the adrenal gland were considered to be of minor clinical significance, whereas in case 2 the myelolipoma was an incidental finding. 相似文献
