Abstract We discuss the canonical quantization of U(1) k Chern-Simons theory on a spatial lattice.In addition to the usual local Gauss law constraints, the physical Hilbert space is defined by 1-form gauge constraints implementing the compactness of the U(1) gauge group, and (depending on the Scarf details of the spatial lattice) non-local constrai
Background Many critically ill patients require transfer to a higher-level hospital for complex medical care.Despite the publication of the American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines for pediatric interhospital transportation services and the establishment of many pediatric transport programs, adverse events during pediatric transport still occur.Pu
Pocket infection of a cardiac device is usually treated by removing the device and re-implanting it in a new site after complete treatment of the infection.This report illustrates a complicated case of pocket infection in the wake of the implantation of a permanent pacemaker (cardiac resynchronization therapy).The 10 patient was treated conservativ

Abstract Background Heterobasidion parviporum is an economically most important fungal forest pathogen in northern Europe, causing root and butt rot disease of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.).The mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and virulence of this species remain elusive.No reference genome to facilitate functional analysis is avail
