for movement disorders through effects on premotoneuron circuitry.The clinical presentation of dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) can vary. A 47-year-old man complained of transient difficulty playing badminton and speech disturbance for 10 minutes. His symptoms were suspected to be visuomotor coordination deficit similar to optic ataxia and…[Read more]

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic condition characterized by severe mood swings alternating between episodes of mania and depression. Evidence indicates that protein kinase C (PKC) and oxidative stress are important therapeutic targets for BD. However, what PKC isoforms that are precisely involved in this effect are unknown. Therefore, we…[Read more]

Conclusions This study reports, for the first time, the presence of Trichophyton verrucosum in cattle in Ningxia and showed that the incidence of dermatophytosis is related to different regions, ages and seasons. A better knowledge of the prevalence of dermatophytosis of cattle may allow the adoption of more efficient control measures and…[Read more]

AIMS Agro-based wastes were evaluated as a medium for mass micropropagule production and optimal efficacy of Trichoderma asperellum B1092 in controlling F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and promoting tomato growth. This study focused on biological control because pathogen persistence in the soil makes the disease difficult to control. METHODS AND…[Read more]

The results demonstrate that those cytosine analogues, especially Ca7 and Ca11, are capable of inducing DPT with guanine, and then the guanine tautomer will form mismatches with thymine during DNA replication, which may provide new strategies for gene therapy.Background The rates of severe or Class III obesity (BMI ≥ 40.0 kg/m2) and endometrial c…[Read more]

Defect engineering is the core strategy for improving thermoelectric properties. Herein, cation doping along with modulation of cation vacancy has been developed in GeTe-based materials as an effective method to induce vacancy-based defects to boost their thermoelectric performance. A series of ternary compounds of Ge9Sb2Te12-x (x = 0, 0.03, 0.06,…[Read more]

The topsoil concentration ranges for Cu (70-128 mg kg-1) were found to be above the background level and several samples above the regional governmental limits (Generic Reference Levels or GRL values) for soil ecosystem protection and for human health (90 mg kg-1). The present study reveals that the use of FP-XRF equipment constitute a highly…[Read more]

Selective and efficient hydrosilylations of esters to alcohols by a well-defined manganese(I) complex with a commercially available bisphosphine ligand are described. These reactions are easy alternatives for stoichiometric hydride reduction or hydrogenation, and employing cheap, abundant, and nonprecious metal is attractive. The hydrosilylations…[Read more]

These are important empirical questions that have been left unanswered in the literature but can be potentially meaningful in seeking more balanced support for dimension effects in AC research. Using data from N = 213 participants from a 1-day AC, we aimed to investigate the impact of using different indicator-dimension ratios when specifying CFA…[Read more]

Meanwhile, the shoulder bands at the highest frequency of 750 cm-1 were mainly attributed to the stretching modes of the bridging oxygens and oxygen triclusters. The structural models obtained in this study well describe the characteristic local structures and vibrational properties of the La2O3-Ga2O3 glass.During transportation and storage, coal…[Read more]
