Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is an inherited disorder affecting the visual system and skin pigmentation.Our aim CUTTING SHEARS was to evaluate genetic and clinical heterogeneity in a cohort of Slovenian paediatric patients with clinically suspected OCA using advanced molecular-genetics approach.In as much as 20 out of 25 patients, genetic variants

Neutrophils play a central role in eliminating bacterial pathogens, but may also contribute to end-organ damage in sepsis.Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a key modulator of neutrophil function, signals through neutrophil specific surface receptors CXCR-1 and CXCR-2.In this study a mechanistic computational model was used to evaluate and deploy an extracorpor

Information about irrigation with relevant spatiotemporal resolution for understanding and modelling irrigation dynamics is important for improved water resource management.However, achieving a frequent and consistent characterization of areas where signals from rain-fed pixels overlap with irrigated pixels has been challenging.Here, we identify ir

In this article we reviewed the literature on injuries and their mechanisms in bodybuilders.Bodybuilding is Nuts a weightlifting sport where the main goal is to increase muscle mass while maitaining body symmetry.From a biomechanical point of view, it is important to analyse technical performance of exercises to improve sports technique.Compound ex

Isolated patellofemoral osteoarthritis is relatively prevalent, with the lateral facet of the patella being the most commonly affected portion.This pathology can be a result of a patellar maltracking syndrome, patella instability, or idiopathic degenerative changes.A thorough diagnostic work-up with a physical examination and imaging studies are ma
