The article tells us nothing new, just that Cyprus served as a meeting place between Greeks & Phoenicians (as we knew), where beyond the exchange of goods, there was an exchange of linguistics. :)

Really? No, that’s your mother’s house you’re confusing Cyprus with! :lol:


:shock: Be afraid plonker!

The unnumbered hordes of the Hellenes descend upon you! :twisted:

I eat Hellenes for breakfast...

Nuchal translucency and other first-trimester sonographic markers of chromosomal abnormalities.

There is extensive evidence that effective screening for major chromosomal abnormalities can be provided in the first trimester of pregnancy. Prospective studies in a total of 200,868 pregnancies, including 871 fetuses with trisomy 21, have demonstrated that increased nuchal translucency can identify 76.8% of fetuses with trisomy 21, which represents a false-positive rate of 4.2%. When fetal nuchal translucency was combined with maternal serum free-beta-human chorionic gonadotropin and pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A in prospective studies in a total of 44,613 pregnancies, including 215 fetuses with trisomy 21, the detection rate was 87.0% for a false-positive rate of 5.0%. Studies from specialist centers with 15,822 pregnancies, which included 397 fetuses with trisomy 21, have demonstrated that the absence of the nasal bone can identify 69.0% of trisomy 21 fetuses, which represents a false-positive rate of 1.4%. It has been estimated that first-trimester screening by a combination of sonography and maternal serum testing can identify 97% of trisomy 21 fetuses, which represents a false-positive rate of 5%, or that the detection rate can be 91%, which represents a false-positive rate of 0.5%. In addition to increased nuchal translucency, important sonographic markers for chromosomal abnormalities, include fetal growth restriction, tachycardia, abnormal flow in the ductus venosus, megacystis, exomphalos and single umbilical artery. Most pregnant women prefer screening in the first, rather than in the second, trimester. As with all aspects of good clinical practice, those care givers who perform first-trimester screening should be trained appropriately, and their results should be subjected to external quality assurance.


Actually my man Kypros Nicolaides here is a Paphitis. :D

There was no fear of Extinction before the Ottomans, Deniz. The Churches had survived in their evolving fashion for over a thousand years without your help.

Now look what is happening .....

Nope! .... the French had the name 'ottoman' for a type of fabric. It was the English who then adapted the name to footstools :D
