Begomoviruses are transmitted by whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Gennadius, Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in a persistent-circulative way.Once B.tabaci becomes viruliferous, it remains so throughout its life span.Not much is known about the copies of begomoviruses ingested and/or released by B.tabaci during the TENTS process of feeding.The present study reports
Outcomes of Pregnancy in Sickle Cell Disease Patients: Results from the Prospective ESCORT-HU Cohort Study
Sickle cell disease (SCD) refers to a group of inherited hemoglobin disorders in which sickle red blood cells display altered deformability, leading to a significant TENTS burden of acute and chronic complications, such as vaso-occlusive pain crises (VOCs).Hydroxyurea is a major therapeutic agent in adult and pediatric sickle cell patients.This tre
A novel single-crystal & single-pass source for polarisation- and colour-entangled photon pairs
Abstract We demonstrate a new generation mechanism for polarisation- and colour-entangled photon pairs.In our approach we tailor the phase-matching of a periodically poled KTP crystal such that two downconversion processes take GASTRO RELIEF place simultaneously.Relying on this effect, our source emits entangled bipartite photon states, emerging in
Translating basic research in cancer patient care
With the advent of molecular targeted therapies and the development of high-throughput biotechnologies, it has become evident that progress in cancer research is largely due to the creation of multidisciplinary teams able to plan clinical trials supported by appropriate molecular hypotheses.These efforts have culminated in the FLORAVIT identificati
