Our interest however will be in constructing large but very sparse graphs (ideally with d = 3) for which h(G) ≥ c for some absolute constant c > 0. Such graphs are “highly connected” graphs. For example, the following lemma shows that by deleting a few edges in such graphs, we can only disconnect a few vertices. This is very useful for example in network design, where we want the failure of edg...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of intensified antiplatelet therapy guided by VerifyNow assay P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) reported values in patients undergoing neuroendovascular procedures. METHODS An observational, retrospective review was conducted at a single academic tertiary referral center and comprehensive stroke center from December 1, 2012, t...

Samples of 10 and 14 Ctenocephalides felis felis fleas were collected on dogs from Pedreira and Mogi das Cruzes municipalities, respectively, in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, for detection of Rickettsia spp. Individual fleas were submitted to Polymerase Chain Reaction targeting the 17-kDa and the 190-kDa (OmpA) genes of Rickettsiae. This later gene is specific for spotted fever group. Nine fl...

The effect of blockade of 5-HT1A receptors was investigated on (1). retention in a mildly aversive passive-avoidance task, and (2). spontaneous single-unit activity of central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) neurons, a brain site implicated in modulation of retention. Systemic administration of the selective 5-HT1A antagonist NAN-190 immediately after training markedly-and dose-dependently-facili...

This study investigated the action of 5-HT receptor antagonists on cell proliferation in the dentate gyrus of adult rats. Three 1A antagonists (NAN-190, p-MPPI and WAY-100635) all produced a statistically significant |30% reduction in the number of BrdUimmunoreactive cells in the dentate gyrus. This suggests that 5-HT receptor activity is important during naturally occurring cell 1A proliferati...
