Topiramate in pregnancy - Preliminary experience from the UK epilepsy and pregnancy register

Objectives: Topiramate (Topamax (R)) is licensed to be used, either in monotherapy or as adjunctive treatment, for generalized tonic clonic seizures or partial seizures with or without secondary generalization and for prevention of migraine. The safety of topiramate in human pregnancy is largely unknown. Here we report on our experience of pregnancies exposed to topiramate.

Preliminary Development and Evaluation of Fiber-Optic Chemical Sensors

This paper could be consider seminal in the Civil Engineering field as it describes the first application of these sensors to a complex durability and management issue. For this reason it is potentially controversial as it requires Civil Engineers to re-evaluate the nature and scale of durability testing.
