DEAD SNAKES AND THEIR STORIES: MORPHOLOGICAL ANOMALIES, ASYMMETRIES AND SCARS OF ROAD KILLED DOLICHOPHIS CASPIUS (SERPENTES, COLUBRIDAE) FROM ROMANIA

We analysed several morphological characters of 84 road-killed D.caspius individuals from different areas of southern Romania.Most presented asymmetries in the total number of temporal scales, the temporal row and the periocular and labial scales.Almost a quarter of snakes had scars, located especially on the head and tail; many individuals had mul

The urachus is a tubular structure located in the infraumbilical midline extending from the anterior portion of the bladder dome to the umbilicus.The persistence of some parts of the urachus will lead to congenital anomalies derived from it, being the cyst the t4450 samsung most common one.The urachal cysts are small and remain unnoticed until some

Abstract Processes where W and Z bosons scatter into pairs of electroweak bosons W, Z, and Higgs, are sensitive probes of new physics in the electroweak sector.We study simplified models that describe typical scenarios of new physics and parameterize the range of possible LHC results between the standard-model prediction and unitarity apunisw2 limi

The clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a term used to describe individuals who have detectable somatic mutations in genes commonly found in individuals with hematologic cancers but without any apparent evidence of such conditions.The mortality rate in individuals with CHIP is remarkably higher than the influence ascribed to h
