The cumulative temperature method could be used to predict the start and end dates of the monoterpene emissions. To estimate the annual monoterpene emissions, a temperature and light intensity dependent emission model was modified to incorporate the effect of growth temperature on seasonal patterns of Ms. Annual monoterpene emissions were found to…[Read more]

As the number of transgender (trans) people (including those who are binary and/or non-binary identified) seeking gender-affirming hormone therapy rises, endocrinologists are increasingly asked to assist with interpretation of laboratory tests. Many common laboratory tests such as hemoglobin, iron studies, cardiac troponin and creatinine are…[Read more]

Reporting exposure to marijuana advertising is common among youths in Oregon’s legal retail market. Oregon and other states working to prevent youth marijuana use may want to examine how well their rules are working to prevent youth exposure. Although some sources of youth advertising exposure may be difficult to regulate and enforce (eg, online),…[Read more]

The advantages of our diagnostic course are the opportunity to apply practical skills and the small group sizes (maximum five students). The discipline of otorhinolaryngology and its varied character could be optimally presented in this manner. Disadvantageous are the high personnel and logistic requirements, which should, however, be met during…[Read more]

ip fracture patients. Knowledge of these specific factors can be useful for physicians to identify patients needing specific rehabilitation programs for balance.

The aim of this study is to investigate the emergence and development of sarcopenia research and guide to most cited articles for researchers.

In this drug encapsulation study, drug-metal complexation between Dox and HAuCl4·3H2O has been discussed elaborately. Similar to the nanoparticle formation, the effects of denaturants on drug encapsulation have also been discovered, and interestingly, it has been observed that urea plays a positive role, whereas GdnHCl plays a negative or…[Read more]

Furthermore, lncRNA MEG3 inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion and telomerase activity in A549 cells by downregulating DKC1. lncRNA MEG3 inhibited non-small cell lung cancer progression by inhibiting telomere function, cell proliferation, telomerase activity, cell migration and invasion via regulation of the DKC1 protein expression.…[Read more]

t-enhanced CT, which could be helpful in selecting patients who are more likely to respond to therapy, and with a longer survival.

• To achieve the best results of treatment with sorafenib in advanced HCC, a strict selection of patients is needed. • New radiologic parameters predictive of the response to sorafenib would be essential. • Volum…[Read more]

The gallbladder and the adjacent cyst were excised, and a T-tube was placed in the choledochus. Postoperative recovery was uneventful. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that cholecysto-hydatid fistula is a severe problem that requires close workup with both the radiology and surgery departments. Preoperative ERCP is beneficial for the visualization of the…[Read more]
