SUMMARY. There is a significant association between vitiligo and thyroid disease. Thyroglobulin antibodies are significantly associated with vitiligo, whether patients psoriasis or general practice population taken as controls. Similarly complement-fixing compared psoriasis. no evidence that autoimmunity positively negatively Alopecia areata, pernicious anaemia diabetes mellitus also vitiligo.
Submarine gravity flows are a key process for transporting large volumes of sediment from the continents to deep sea. The location, volume, and character bypassed by these dictates areal extent thickness associated deposits. Despite its importance, bypass is poorly understood in terms flow processes stratigraphic expression. We first examine relationships between physical parameters that govern flows, before assessing variable expression modern seafloor, outcrop, subsurface datasets....
Turbidity currents, and other types of submarine sediment densityflow, redistribute more acrossthe surface the Earth than any flow process, yet their concentration has never been measured directly in deep ocean.The depositsof these flows are societal importance as imperfect records past earthquakes tsunamogenic landslides reservoir rocks for many deep-water petroleum accumulations.Key future research directions on deposits were identified at an informal workshop September 2013.This...
SUMMARY.— The incidence of thyroid disease in patients with alopecia areata was greater than psoriasis and also a control series the general population. There an increased diabetes mellitus relatives areata. No significant difference found thyroglobulin complement‐fixing antibodies as compared practice A negative association between demonstrated.

SUMMARY. Bullous phototoxic eruptions due to Nalidixic acid are recognized but very uncommon. We report details of 5 cases. Investigations for porphyria were carried out in 3 cases and negative. Experimentally nalidixic did not cause photosensitivity normal young men.
Abstract Current understanding of submarine sediment density flows is based heavily on their deposits, because such are notoriously difficult to monitor directly. However, it rarely possible trace the facies architecture individual deposits over significant distances. Instead, bed‐scale models that infer ‘typical’ encapsulate current depositional processes and flow evolution. In this study, distribution in 12 beds has been documented along downstream transects distances excess 100 km. These...
Sediment gravity flows are ubiquitous agents of transport, erosion, and deposition across Earth’s surface, including terrestrial debris flows, snow avalanches, submarine turbidity currents. typically erode material along their path (bulking), which can dramatically increase size, speed, run-out distance. Hence, flow bulking is a first-order control on evolution underpins predictive modeling approaches geohazard assessments. Quantifying in systems problematic because large-scale inaccessible...
ABSTRACT Grain‐size breaks are surfaces where abrupt changes in grain size occur vertically within deposits. common features turbidites around the world, including ancient and modern systems. Despite their widespread occurrence, grain‐size have been regarded as exceptional, not included idealized models of turbidity current deposition. This study uses ca 100 shallow sediment cores, from Moroccan Turbidite System, to map out five turbidite beds for distances excess 2000 km. The vertical...

Submarine gravity flows are responsible for the largest sediment accumulations on planet, but notoriously difficult to measure in action. Giant transport 100s of km3 with run-out distances over 2000 km. Sediment concentration is a first order control flow dynamics and deposit character. It has never been measured directly nor convincingly estimated large submarine flows. Here we reconstruct historic giant flow, 1929 "Grand Banks" event, using two independent approaches, each validated by...
ABSTRACT Recognition and interpretation of sedimentary structures is fundamental to understanding processes. Banded sandstones are an enigmatic facies comprising alternating mud-rich (as matrix and/or mud clasts) cleaner sand layers. The juxtaposition hydrodynamically different grain sizes contradicts established models cleaner-sand bedform development. Here, outcrop, subsurface core, petrographic data from three deep-water systems, with well-constrained paleogeographic contexts, used...
AIM: To determine the cost of health and educational service provision for low birthweight children with a clinical disability. METHODS: Cohort study geographically defined population in five districts that comprise County Merseyside was undertaken. All disability born 1980 1981 to mothers resident were followed up age 8-9 years. The care associated initial admission neonatal special/intensive unit subsequent use hospital, family practitioner, special education services assessed. RESULTS:...
Abstract Seabed topography is ubiquitous across basin‐floor environments, and influences sediment gravity flows dispersal patterns. The impact of steep (several degrees) confining slopes on sedimentary facies depositional architecture has been widely documented. However, the influence gentle (fraction a degree) less well‐documented, largely due to outcrop limitations. Here, exceptional research borehole data from Unit A Permian Laingsburg Formation, South Africa, provide means examine subtle...
Abstract In modern systems, submarine channel–lobe transition zones show a well‐documented assemblage of depositional and erosional bedforms. contrast, the stratigraphic record is poorly constrained, because preservation potential low criteria have not been established to identify bedforms in these settings. Several locations from an exhumed fine‐grained base slope system (Unit B, Laingsburg depocentre, Karoo Basin, South Africa) exceptional sandstone beds with distinctive morphologies...
