We provide an overview of research related to environmental effects of disposal of coal combustion residues (CCR) in sites in the United States. Our focus is on aspects of CCR that have the potential to negatively influence aquatic organisms and the health of aquatic ecosystems. We identify major issues of concern, as well as areas in need of further investigation. Intentional or accidental rel...

Maril, Nimrod, Hadassa Degani, Edna Rushkin, A. Dean Sherry, and Mildred Cohn. Kinetics of cyclocreatine and Na1 cotransport in human breast cancer cells: mechanism of activity. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Cell Physiol. 46): C708–C716, 1999.—The growth-inhibitory effect of cyclocreatine (CCr) and the kinetics of CCr and Na1 cotransport were investigated in MCF7 human breast cancer cells and its adriam...

Cross-document co-reference resolution (CCR) computes equivalence classes over textual mentions denoting the same entity in a document corpus. Named-entity linking (NEL) disambiguates mentions onto entities present in a knowledge base (KB) or maps them to null if not present in the KB. Traditionally, CCR and NEL have been addressed separately. However, such approaches miss out on the mutual syn...

Although most patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treated with imatinib mesylate achieve a complete cytogenetic response (CCR), some patients will relapse. To determine the potential of real-time quantitative BCR-ABL reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to predict the duration of continued CCR, we monitored 85 patients treated with imatinib mesylate who achieved a C...

لقد کانت العمارة الدینیة من اهم المیادین التی محور اهتمام المرأة ونساء الخلفاء والامراء والصالحین العلماء وغیرهم، کبناء الاربطة والإنفاق علیها، والاهتمام بترمیمها وصیانتها فی مختلف الأمصار الإسلامیة، فبدأ ظهور بنائها الدولة الإسلامیة منذ العهد الراشدی کما زاد اعتناء ببناء الأربطة الأقالیم الإِسلامیة ولاسیَّما العصور العباسیة المتأخرة والغرض منها الأجر والثواب. تعد الربط مبررات الخیریة ساهمت بشکل و...

Objective: To investigate the effects of a 12 week comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CCR) programme on patients who have undergone implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Design: Sixteen patients with ICDs (14 (88%) male, mean (SD) age 58 (10) years, range 34–74 years) were randomised to either attend an individually tailored CCR programme or receive usual care. The...
