چکیده

Caring for patients with leg ulcers continues to be a challenge for healthcare professionals, particularly since the current healthcare climate of an ageing population, increased incidences of obesity and diabetes, as well as other comorbidities can complicate their management (Todd, 2014). It is estimated that 1% of the population suffer from leg ulcers at some point in their lives (Callam, 1992; O’Meara et al, 2009), and in those over 65 years this increases to 3–5% (Mekkes et al, 2003). Furthermore, it has also been suggested that at least 70% of all ulcers are venous in origin (Anderson, 2006), with the annual incidence of venous leg ulcers being at least 100,000 (Posnett and Franks, 2008), costing the NHS approximately £400m per year — including recurrence rates A compression bandage system that helps to promote patient wellbeing

Integrated Pest Management

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has had a varied history, with different definitions. It has been implemented under an array of different connotations (Lewis et al., 1997). The term was earlier used as ‘‘integrated control’’ by Bartlett (Bartlett, 1956) and was further elaborated on by Stern and co-workers (Stern et al., 1959). In reference to the concept of integrating the use of bio‐ logical...

Activated transcription of the human neuropeptide Y gene in differentiating SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells is dependent on transcription factors AP-1, AP-2alpha, and NGFI.

Activated transcription of the human neuropeptide Y gene (NPY) was investigated in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells at the onset of sympathetic neuronal differentiation induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) and serum or by nerve growth factor (NGF). As determined by transient expression, two NGF response elements (REs) were required for transcription induced by NGF in SH-SY5Y cells w...

Two optimal algorithms for finding bi-directional shortest path design problem in a block layout

In this paper, Shortest Path Design Problem (SPDP) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. The bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for Automated Guided Vehi-cles (AGV).To solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. For each algorithm an Integer Linear Pro-gramming (ILP) is determined. The objective functions of both algorithms are t...

Activation of the human NPY gene during neuroblastoma cell differentiation: induced transcriptional activities of AP-1 and AP-2.

During functional neuronal differentiation of human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), the mRNA expression of c-fos and c-jun displayed a synchronous and biphasic type of induction for both mRNAs, with an early transient (30 to 120 min) and a later (> 8 h) more persistent increase. This was coupled to increased in vitro DNA binding activity of cF...
