چکیده
To begin with, the terms used in the debate on the ethical status of the human embryo need to be defined. Apart from the presumed benefits of ES cell research, we should also consider such issues as the strong opposition to this research by a large part of society, who argue in favour of protecting and respecting human embryos; the fragility and defenseless of human embryos; and the contradiction in terms inherent in the statement that human embryos must be treated with respect.

alcium entry via Na/Ca exchange during the action potential directly contributes to contraction of failing human ventricular myocytes
21 Prolongation of the Ca transient and action potential (AP) durations are two characteristic changes in myocyte physiology in the 21 1 21 21 failing human heart. The hypothesis of this study is that Ca influx via reverse mode Na /Ca exchanger (NCX) or via L-type Ca 21 channels directly activates contraction in failing human myocytes while in normal myocytes this Ca is transported into the sar...
متن کاملEffectiveness of lexico-syntactic pattern matching for ontology enrichment with clinical documents.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of a lexico-syntactic pattern (LSP) matching method for ontology enrichment using clinical documents. METHODS Two domains were separately studied using the same methodology. We used radiology documents to enrich RadLex and pathology documents to enrich National Cancer Institute Thesaurus (NCIT). Several known LSPs were used for semantic knowledge extrac...

متن کاملThe excitation of water in the S 140 photon dominated region
We consider the excitation of water in the Photon Dominated Region (PDR) S140. With the use of a three-dimensional escape probability method we compute the level populations of ortho-and para-H 2 O up to ∼ 350 K (i.e., 8 levels), as well as line intensities for various transitions. Homogeneous and inhomogeneous models are presented with densities of 10 4 – 10 5 cm −3 and the differences between...
متن کاملEquine sweating responses to submaximal exercise during 21 days of heat acclimation.
This study examined sweating responses in six exercise-trained horses during 21 consecutive days (4 h/day) of exposure to, and daily exercise in, hot humid conditions (32-34 degrees C, 80-85% relative humidity). On days 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21, horses completed a standardized exercise test on a treadmill (6 degrees incline) at a speed eliciting 50% of maximal O(2) uptake until a pulmonary artery te...
