The HLA-C*04

Improved Fiber Hydroentanglement Using Pulsed Elliptical Jets - F98-C04

Recent studies of impinging jet flows have shown that momentum exchange and heat transfer can be significantly improved if the jet flow is pulsed (Zumbrunnen, 1996). Moreover, when the jet holes are elliptical, jet free surfaces are formed into a helical structure. Upon pulsating the jet flow, the helical structure rotates and a strong twisting action can be imparted where the jet strikes a sur...

SELF: Software Engineering and Lightweight Formalisms TIN2004-07943-C04

One of the current problems in software systems development is the increasing complexity of analysing and guaranteeing the reliable behaviour of these systems. This project is oriented towards the development of the methods, tools and techniques necessary for supporting quality software construction, with emphasis on practical application to the industrial processes of software companies. This ...

The Effect of HLA-DRB1 on Cholecystitis

Background: Cholecystitis is one of the major digestive diseases. Its prevalence is particularly high in some populations. Significant risk factors associated with cholecystitis include age, sex, obesity, diet, parity and type 2 diabetes. Objective: To determine the association between HLA-DRB1 and cholecystitis. Methods: This casecontrol study included forty Iraqi Arab patients who had cholecy...

The source of HLA molecules on platelets: Does platelets adsorb soluble HLA molecules from their environment?

Background: The origin and function of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules on platelets are still highly arguable. Given the differences in the results of the previous studies in this regard, the lack of research in recent years, and the clinical importance of HLA class I molecules, the absorption capacity of platelets for soluble HLA class I molecules was studied in this investigat...
