Free Intra-Abdominal Air without Peritoneal Perforation after TEM: A Report of Two Cases by Rutger J. Franken, Daan E. Moes, Yair I. Z. Acherman, Eric J. Derksen

“…We hypothesize that due to the combination of elevated pressures in the retroperitoneal cavity and decreased integrity of the retroperitoneal barrier, insufflated CO2 gas can diffuse into the intraperitoneal cavity. Conservative treatment should be considered in patients with free intra-abdominal air postoperatively. …”

Long-term Conservative Follow-up in Children with High-grade Vesicoureteral Reflux and an Abnormal Dimercaptosuccinic Acid Scan by Pankaj V Deshpande

“…A total of 59 children (39 boys and 20 girls) (72%) had MCUG done after UTI while 20 (19 boys and one girl) (24%) children had it done for antenatal hydronephrosis (four of whom had developed UTI immediately after MCUG but had remained free of UTIs thereafter). Conclusion: Conservative management of high-grade VUR, either unilateral or bilateral, in children with an abnormal DMSA does not lead to recurrent severe UTIs. …”

Notes on Conservation Laws, Equations of Motion of Matter, and Particle Fields in Lorentzian and Teleparallel de Sitter Space-Time Structures by Waldyr A. Rodrigues, Samuel A. Wainer

“…Misconceptions appearing in the literature concerning the motion of free particles in dSLM are clarified. Komar currents are introduced within Clifford bundle formalism permitting the presentation of Einstein equation as a Maxwell like equation and proving that in GRT there are infinitely many conserved currents. …”

A geometric morphometric approach for detecting different reproductive stages of a free-ranging killer whale Orcinus orca population by Chloe V. Robinson, Brittany C. Visona-Kelly

“…We illustrate the applicability of our geometric morphometric protocol for rapid, robust determination of reproductive status in a free-ranging cetacean species. This work helps to satisfy the need for universal tools for non-invasively gleaning population demographic data from free-ranging cetaceans especially of populations which are experiencing prey-related reproductive failures, to understand miscarriage rates and trigger subsequential conservation actions.…”
