Small Bowel Obstruction due to Intestinal Xanthomatosis by L. E. Barrera-Herrera, F. Arias, P. A. Rodríguez-Urrego, M. A. Palau-Lázaro

“…We report a case of small intestinal xanthomatosis occurring in a 51-year-old female who presented with one day of copious vomiting and intermittent abdominal pain. Radiologic images revealed jejunal loop thickening and inflammatory changes suggestive of foreign body obstruction, diagnostic laparoscopy found two strictures at the jejunum, and a pathologic examination confirmed a segmental small bowel xanthomatosis. …”

La trame arborée : un élément pertinent pour articuler paysage et biodiversité dans la politique de la trame verte et bleue aux échelles infrarégionales ? by Éric Maire, Philippe Béringuier, Gérard Briane, Bertrand Desailly, Sylvie Guillerme

“…We shall demonstrate through an example in the Pyrenean Piedmont Ariège region, that there are viable methods for making detailed maps of green corridors by using images from the Pléaides satellites. These knowledge tools have been tested in an interactive workshop which revealed a great variety of representations of the green corridor among local stakeholders.…”

Substrate, temperature, and magnetic field dependence of electric polarization in mixed-stacking tetralayer graphenes by Patrick Johansen Sarsfield, Aitor Garcia-Ruiz (艾飛宇), Vladimir I. Fal'ko

“…Among those, mixed-stacking tetralayers lack inversion symmetry, which allows for intrinsic spontaneous out-of-plane electrical polarization, inverted in the mirror-image pair, ABCB and ABAC stackings. Here, we compare the intrinsic polarization of such TLGs with the symmetry-breaking effect of a substrate, which can also generate out-of-plane electric dipole moments with different sizes in all four polytypes, including ABCB and ABAC twins. …”
