I then discuss metaphorical extensions of elevational demonstratives to non-spatial uses such as temporal and social deixis. There are a few languages in which elevational demonstratives with the meaning UP express the temporal meaning future, whereas the DOWN demonstratives encode past. This finding is particularly interesting in view of the…[Read more]

Imbalance of oxidants/antioxidants results in heart failure, contributing to mortality after burn injury. Cardiac mitochondria are a prime source of ROS, and a mitochondrial-specific antioxidant may improve burn-induced cardiomyopathy. We hypothesize that the mitochondrial-specific antioxidant, Mito-TEMPO, could protect cardiac function after…[Read more]

The feed conversion ratio (FCR) was also investigated and exhibited a significant improvement from 1.4 to 1.1.

Based on the decrease of all the investigated parameters, it is possible to say that extrusion is currently an excellent processing feed technique in aquaculture with a good level of respect for the environment.

Based on the…[Read more]

Surface ligands enable control over the dispersibility of colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) via steric and electrostatic stabilization. Today’s device-grade CQD inks have consistently relied on highly polar solvents this enables facile single-step deposition of multi-hundred-nanometer-thick CQD films; but it prevents the realization of CQD film stacks…[Read more]

Host range is a fundamental component of symbiotic interactions, yet it remains poorly characterized for the prevalent yet enigmatic subcategory of bacteria/bacteria symbioses. The recently characterized obligate bacterial epibiont Candidatus Nanosynbacter lyticus TM7x with its bacterial host Actinomyces odontolyticus XH001 offers an ideal system…[Read more]

We demonstrate the use of adherence measures towards a three-group categorization of medication non-adherence, which succinctly describes the diversity of patient medication taking patterns in asthma. The percentage of prescribed doses taken during the study contributed to the prediction of cluster assignment most accurately (84% in out-of-sample…[Read more]

But, N. oculata has revealed the better lipid accumulation potential (40%) in OPTE. Thus, the present study established the appropriate strains and conditions required for OPTE treatment along with the value-added biomass production in large scale.Anaerobic oxidation of methane with denitrification (DAMO), as an important microbial process…[Read more]

A 15-year-old presented in cardiogenic shock secondary to viral myocarditis requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. He developed large thrombi of the left ventricle and aortic root. Anticoagulation was increased, and medications were initiated to decrease the likelihood of aortic valve opening. He underwent…[Read more]

Removal of organic pollutants such as aromatic nitro compounds and dyes from wastewaters is very significant for environment, and the best strategy is their reduction/degradation in the presence of a metal catalyst. In this study, a new palladium nanocatalyst (GA-Sch-Pd) was prepared derived from modified gum arabic and characterized by FT-IR,…[Read more]

Only one patient with avulsion fractures underwent secondary surgery.

Nonoperative treatment has a role in the treatment of Lisfranc injuries, and the results of our study support the view that avulsion and simple intra-articular fractures with < 2mm of displacement can be treated nonoperatively with high functional outcomes. The results…[Read more]

BACKGROUND This study aims to evaluate radiation exposure in patients with complete portal vein thrombosis (CPVT) or portal cavernoma (PC) undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation using real-time ultrasound guidance for portal vein targeting. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a single institution retrospective analysis.…[Read more]
