Hydroxyurea Could Be a Good Clinically Relevant Iron Chelator

Our previous study showed a reduction in serum ferritin of β-thalassemia patients on hydroxyurea therapy. Here we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of hydroxyurea alone and in combination with most widely used iron chelators like deferiprone and deferasirox for reducing iron from experimentally iron overloaded mice. 70 BALB/c mice received intraperitonial injections of iron-sucrose. The mice were ...

What could be more practical than a good interpretation ?

Quantum mechanics is more than the derivation of straightforward theorems about vector spaces, Hilbert spaces and functional analysis. In order to be applicable to experiment and technology, those theorems need interpretation and meaning. Interpretation is to the formalism what a scaffolding in architecture and building construction is to the completed

Could World Literature be the Future of Comparative Literature?

Could any Graph be Turned into a Small-World?

In addition to statistical graph properties (diameter, degree, clustering, ...), Kleinberg [7] showed that a small-world can also be seen as a graph in which the routing task can be efficiently and easily done in spite of a lack of global knowledge. More precisely, in a lattice network augmented by extra random edges (but not chosen uniformly), a short path of polylogarithmic expected length ca...
