Introduction Delusional infestation (DI), also known as delusional parasitosis or Ekbom syndrome, is a rare disorder, characterised by fixed belief that the skin, body or immediate environment is infested by small pathogens, despite the lack of any medical evidence for it.Objectives To describe and discuss two clinical cases of DI, in order to show
Introduction: Complications in immediate breast reconstruction after skin-preserving mastectomies are recurrent.The authors describe conduct to reduce them and improve the anatomical/esthetic result using implants.The objective is to reduce the incidence of areolar necrosis, improve breast projection in reconstructions with submuscular implants, re
Gliding bacteria are virtually everywhere.These organisms are phylogenetically diverse with their hundreds of types, different shapes and several modes of motility.One possible mode of gliding motility in the rod shaped bacteria is that they propel themselves by producing undulating waves in their body.Few bacteria glides near Sink Strainer the sol
DFB lasers with ultrashort cavities or integrated DFB lasers with passive waveguide reflectors are frequently proposed to realize directly modulated lasers (DMLs) for carrying ultrahigh data rate signals.The former suffers from poor heatsink and laser cleavage yield, while the single-mode stability of the latter scheme is seldom addressed.The mode
