While bats carry a diverse range of ectoparasites, little research has been conducted on the effects these organisms may have on bat populations.The southern bent-winged bat SPEARMINT (Miniopterus orianae bassanii) is a critically endangered subspecies endemic to south-eastern Australia, whose numbers have declined over the past 50 years for unknow
Erythrokeratodermia variabilis is a rare keratinization disorder characterized by two types of Mens Fragrance/Beard skin lesions, stationary hyperkeratotic scaly plaques, and migratory erythematous bizarre patches.Herein, we report a case of a 5-year-old female child who presented with pruritic well-defined, reddish brown hyperkeratotic plaques on
A new and accurate edge extension formula based on the Taguchi method is proposed to calculate the resonant frequency of electrically thin and thick rectangular patch antennas with an Dryer Cone Base air gap (RPAAG) and rectangular patch antennas without an air gap.Based on 3205 antennas data random distribution in the electrical substrate thicknes
Flexible pipelines connect offshore platforms to subsea production systems due to their high flexibility, applicability, and recycling.Flexible armor layers in flexible pipelines are constructed using the parallel helical wrapping of several rectangular wires.The complex stress modes to which pipelines are subjected provide complex failure modes th
Equinus (EFD) and equinovarus foot deviation (EVFD) are the most frequent lower limb deformities in stroke survivors.The equinus component can be triggered by a combination of dorsiflexor deficits, plantar flexor overactivity, muscle stiffness, and contractures.The varus component Pancake is typically due to an imbalance between invertor and everto
