<b><i>Background:</i></b> Periodic paralyses and paramyotonia congenita are rare disorders causing disabling weakness myotonia. Mutations in sodium, calcium, potassium channels have been recognized as disease. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> To analyze the clinical phenotype of patients with without discernible genotype to identify other mutations ion channel genes associated <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The authors reviewed data a diagnosis hypokalemic periodic paralysis (56 kindreds, 71 patients),...
Fluoropolymers have long served as potent oxidizers for metal-based pyrolant designs the preparation of energetic materials. Commercial perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs), specifically known Fomblins®, are well-known to undergo accelerated thermal degradation in presence native metals and Lewis acids producing energetically favorable metal fluoride species. This study employs use PFPEs coat nano-aluminum (n-Al) under optimized stoichiometric formulations, harness energy output. The serve ideal n-Al...
Abstract Globally, ungulate–vehicle collisions (UVCs) are a major human safety concern and may also represent significant source of mortality for some ungulate populations. However, records UVC based on counts roadside carcasses or reports by drivers involved in these incidents assuredly underestimated because not all ungulates struck die immediately at the reported authorities. Here, we provide an observation analysis movements GPS‐collared bison ( Bison ) that was Alaska Highway died thick...
Small waterbodies, or 'ponds', have an important role in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services, particularly where freshwater sources are limited, such as arid some urban environments. However, studies that examine the use of ponds by terrestrial wildlife limited. In boreal forest, aquatic habitats drinking feeding habitat for endangered little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus), their relative value likely varies based on characteristics, size, adjacent land cover type, anthropogenic...
A facile method for synthesizing conjugated bis(fulvenes) demonstrates tailorable optical band gaps and serves as a model dye system new organic electronic applications.
Ecological communities are fundamentally connected through a network of trophic interactions that often complex and difficult to model. Substantial variation exists in the nature magnitude these across various predators prey time. However, empirical data needed characterize relationships obtain natural systems, even for relatively simple food webs. Consequently, prey-dependent specifically hyperbolic form (Holling’s Type II), which consumption increases with density but ultimately becomes...
Animals exhibit dynamic movement and activity in response to environmental variation including changes reproductive opportunities, predation risk, or food availability. Yet, it remains unclear which factors are primary affecting animal movement, whether the relative importance of these consistent through time. We tracked snowshoe hares ( Lepus americanus ) using GPS telemetry during eight summers spanning a hare population cycle (2015–2022) southwestern Yukon, Canada, determine associations...
Understanding the drivers that shape hunter behaviour and success can help guide management decisions regarding hunting. Although there has been work on socioeconomic environmental of effort, less quantitative analysis temporal patterns wildlife harvest available. Yet, knowing when hunters are most active may be useful for distributing spatiotemporal allotment hunting opportunities where real or perceived issues hunt quality (e.g. congestion) negative impacts to local people target...
Poly(phenylene vinylene) (PPV) represents an important class of conjugated, conducting polymers that have been readily exploited in the preparation organic electronic materials. In this experiment, students prepare a PPV polymer via facile multistep synthetic sequence with robust spectroscopic evaluation intermediates and final product. The could be applied by university instructors as capstone project for undergraduate chemistry laboratory or centerpiece either integrated course. initial...
In the title compound, C11H9BrO, cyclo-pentenone ring is almost planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0097 Å. The largest inter-ring torsion angles [2.4 (3), 1.3 (3) and 3.53 (2)°] reveal only a very small twist between rings, suggest that two rings are conjugated. mol-ecule slightly bowed, as shown by dihedral angle [5.3 (1)°]. crystal packing pattern consists parallel sheets stack to ac plane. Each sheet mol-ecules pack side-to-side same relative orientation phenyl along a- c-axis...
