FRAGILE X-ASSOCIATED TREMOR ATAXIA SYNDROME: THE EXPANDING CLINICAL PICTURE, PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, EPIDEMIOLOGY, AND UPDATE ON TREATMENT

Fragile X-Associated Tremor Ataxia Syndrome: The Expanding Clinical Picture, Pathophysiology, Epidemiology, and Update on Treatment

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a progressive degenerative movement disorder characterized by kinetic tremor, cerebellar gait ataxia, parkinsonism, and cognitive decline.This disorder occurs in both males and females, frequently in families with children who have fragile vegas golden knights background X syndrome.The clinical

Towards a revision of the genus Periclimenes: resurrection of Ancylocaris Schenkel, 1902, and designation of three new genera (Crustacea, Decapoda, Palaemonidae)

Based on recently published molecular phylogenies of Indo-West Pacific palaemonid shrimps and further morphological evidence, the systematic position of several species of the polyphyletic genus Periclimenes is revised.The generic name Ancylocaris Schenkel, 1902 is re-established for the anemone-associated P.brevicarpalis.Actinimenes gen.n., is pro

Conceptualization, proposed design and theoretical investigations of an active adaptive cutting device with enhanced energy dissipation potential

Active adaptive energy dissipation systems can receive and interpret data from onboard vehicle sensors to respond to external stimuli by modifying their geometries and corresponding load bearing capacities.This is a highly promising subfield in structural crashworthiness since these devices possess multiple potential configurations, thus allowing t
