Late-diagnosed complete intravaginal testicular torsion with preserved blood flow and viable testis in an adolescent by Zvizdic, Zlatan

“…In intermittent TT, the degree of spermatic cord twist is ≥ 360°, but spontaneous resolution occurs after a short time. In the mentioned forms of TT, color Doppler ultrasonography (CDS) shows a subtle decreased blood flow or flow that appears symmetrical with the contralateral testis.1 In contrast, complete TT results in testicular ischemia due to compromised blood flow to the affected testis. …”

Excess pCO2 and carbonate system geochemistry in surface seawater of the exclusive economic zone of Qatar (Arabian Gulf) by Connor, Izumi

“…Its values in the Gulf ranged from −50 to −310 μmol kg−1 implying CaCO3 precipitation. The average value of ΔAlk*, the difference in Alk* between specific locations in the Qatari EEZ and the surface water entering through the Strait of Hormuz, was −130 μmol kg−1 which corresponded to a calcification of 65 μmol kg−1. …”
