The coronavirus outbreak significantly changed the need of healthcare services. We hypothesized that the COVID-19 pandemic decreased the frequency of pediatric fracture operations. We also hypothesized that the frequency of emergency pediatric surgical operations decreased as well, as a result of patient-related reasons, such as neglecting or…[Read more]

Starvation can be shown to inhibit the expression of Mhc, Mlc and troponin, and high expression of GHR2, IGFR1, and 4ebp inhibited growth. Fasting promoted the metabolic actions of GHR2, IGFR1, and 4ebp rather than the growth-promoting actions. MyoD can sense and regulate the hunger, which also worked with Mhc and Mlc to accelerate the…[Read more]

vulgaris and T. aestivum, which showed early leaf loss (P. vulgaris) and an increased rate of senescence (T. aestivum) in response to ozone exposure. All of the crops tested showed visible ozone symptoms on their leaves in at least one cultivar, and ozone sensitivity varied between cultivars of the same crop. A guide to assist with identification…[Read more]

Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone-co-butylacrylate-co-N-hydroxymethylacrylamide) has been synthesized by free radical polymerization at 70 °C. Copolymer were characterized by FT-IR, elemental analysis and viscometric methods. OSI-930 Invertase was immobilized onto poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone-co-butyl acrylate-co-N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide) by entrapment…[Read more]
