Detection and Characterization of Sinkholes Through Integration of Field Surveys and Semi-automated Techniques
Sinkholes are among the most typical landforms of karst terrains. They may originate from a simple downward process, through dissolution of carbonate rocks, or through rapid, sometimes catastrophic, collapse, ...

Cyclosporine-induced insulin release in rats is related to an increase in plasma lipid levels
We studied the modifications of plasma lipid levels induced by cyclosporine (CsA), streptozocin (STZ) or both drugs in rats. Male Wistar rats (RTly) were administered i.p. with CsA or STZ or both at the dosage...
