 | Leaf-inhabiting genera of the Gnomoniaceae, Diaporthales. |  Bottom Line: Molecular studies of the Gnomoniaceae suggest that the traditional classification of genera based on characteristics of the ascomata such as position of the neck and ascospores such as septation have resulted in genera that are not monophyletic.The new monotypic... | Sogonov MV, Castlebury LA, Rossman AY, MejÃa LC, et al. - Stud.

 | The IMSI procedure improves poor embryo development in the same infertile couples with poor semen quality:... | Figure 1: Classification of spermatozoa selected at 6,000 × magnification into 3 different categories. Class I - spermatozoa of good quality, Class II - spermatozoa of worse quality, and Class III - spermatozoa of poor quality. Legend: a,b,c - spermatozoa of Class I;...Bottom Line: There was a significantly lower number of cycles with all arrested embryos and cycles with no embryo transfer in the IMSI group versus the ICSI group (0% vs. 27.0%, p = 0.048).After the transfer of embryos at the blastocyst or morula stage (on luteal day 5)... | Knez K, Zorn B, Tomazevic T, Vrtacnik-Bokal E, et al. - Reprod.

 | Total Dislocation of the Talus without a Fracture. Open or Closed Treatment? Report of Two Cases and... | Figure 3: Case II, Lateral dislocation of talus, skin tensed, foot in equinus and supination.Bottom Line: The injury is encountered as a closed one even more rarely.Reviewing the literature we found that proposed treatments for total talus dislocation varied from primary talectomy or arthodesis (to avoid complications) to closed reduction and an under knee cast.Most... | Xarchas KC, Psillakis IG, Kazakos KJ, Pelekas S, et al. - Open Orthop J (2009) |

 | Reduction of artefacts caused by hip implants in CT-based attenuation-corrected PET images using 2-D... | Fig5: Photograph of the cylindrical phantom used in the experimental study. The black arrows show the metallic inserts used to generate streaking artefactsBottom Line: Since this degrades the diagnostic quality of the images, metal artefact reduction (MAR) prior to attenuation correction is required.The proposed MAR method, referred to as virtual sinogram-based technique, replaces the projection bins of the sinogram that... | Abdoli M, de Jong JR, Pruim J, Dierckx RA, et al. - Eur.
