ABSTRACT Combined field, sedimentological, mineralogical, isotopic and geochemical study of the Lower Cretaceous dolomites Central Tunisia has demonstrated considerable diversity in origin. Environments dolomite formation include deep phreatic, karst, lacustrine evaporitic sabkha. All four groups are composed non‐stoichiometric and/or disordered crystals which more or less rich calcium iron. Petrographic fabrics three types: replacement, recrystallization cementation. These proposed among...

Recent discoveries of oil and gas in Triassic reservoirs the Ghadames basin, eastern Algeria, suggest that similar potential exists to east, southern Tunisian part province. For decades, Tunisia has remained an underexplored large owing older geological interpretations focus on Paleozoic limitations seismic data quality, resulting from statics problems, have rendered trap identification inaccurate or tenuous. New analyses previously recently acquired geochemical data, as well improvements...

ABSTRACT REE distribution, strontium content and oxygen isotopic composition have been studied in the Lower Cretaceous dolomites their interbedded and/or parental limestones of Central Tunisia. Dolomites, as indicated by previous sedimentologic, geochemical study, are different origin. Environments dolomite formation include: evaporitic sabkha, deep phreatic, karst lacustrine. With exception sabkha environment, dolomitizing fluids presumably essentially meteoric. The comparison between...

Nail psoriasis has variable prevalence and heterogeneous aspects. Many of them could mimic onychomycosis (OM). It been suggested that patients with nail are at high risk OM. The aim our study was to determine the epidemiological clinical characteristics estimate frequency factors associated OM in psoriatic patients. studied group included 163 aged 18 years or older. Epidemiological data, as well severity skin nails disease by evaluating Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) (NAPSI) scores...

Intermittent catheterisation (IC) has been in practice for more than 40 years and is considered the gold standard management of urinary retention neurological bladder. IC many advantages over indwelling urethral or suprapubic catheterisation, including reducing risk infection, protecting bladder improving quality life. However, complications can be caused by this technique, most common which infection. This review discusses some that occur with use intermittent tract infection (UTIs)...

L'analyse séquentielle des séries argilo-carbonatées du Crétacé supérieur Jebel Mrhila a conduit à définir cinq séquences sédi-mentaires majeures. La révision stratigraphique de ces dernières, basée sur les ammonites, échinides, foraminifères planctoniques et benthiques ostracodes, permis attribuer respectivement au Vraconien, Cénomanien, Turonien inférieur moyen, moyen-supérieur Santonien terminal-Campanien. Ces séquences, bathycroissantes puis bathydécroissantes ont été déposées dans...
