Subsequently, the ORs (95% CIs) of mortality (1.15; 1.07 to 1.23) and bleeding (1.24; 1.16 to 1.31) were increased in patients with SLE; SSC was associated with increased ORs (95% CIs) of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (1.52; 1.38 to 1.68) and mortality (1.81; 1.62 to 2.02) but not bleeding or stroke; the RA group was at…[Read more]

In addition, the SiO producing reaction was affected by hydrogen. The hydrogen lead to an increased rate of SiO formation relative to what was seen in argon. The effect of hydrogen was most pronounced at 1750 °C which is right after the melting of silica.The determinants of brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity are not yet known in detail but might…[Read more]

05); compared with those in miR-599 + pcDNA3.1 group, the expression level of YAP1 protein and the abilities of cell proliferation and invasion in miR-599 + pcDNA3.1-YAP1 group were significantly higher, while the apoptotic rate was significantly lower (P less then 0.05). MiR-599 may inhibit the proliferation, invasion and promote apoptosis of…[Read more]

To evaluate the validity and reliability of the Child Perceptions Questionnaire 11-14 (CPQ11-14) for children attending public educational institutions in Floridablanca (Colombia).

An evaluation study of diagnostic technology was conducted. The questionnaire was completed by 500 students aged 11-14years who were selected by simple random…[Read more]

1-20 cm tall were reduced in abundance after the hurricanes. These trends were sustained without density-associated effects mediating recruitment or self-thinning of adults. The dynamics of G. ventalina over seven years reveals the high resilience of this species that will contribute to the persistence of octocorals as a dominant state on…[Read more]

3.3%) had final implanted stems that differed by 1 size from the predicted size, and for 1 patient (6.7%), the stem size was off by ≥2 sizes.

We describe a novel and easy-to-use method for the accurate calibration of radiographs and preoperative planning for THA. The EOS method evaluated in this study is an alternative method for p…[Read more]
