Effects of MCI-176, 2-(2,5-dimethoxyphenylmethyl)-3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-6-isopropox y-4 (3H)-quinazolinone hydrochloride, on coronary and aortic blood flows, mean blood pressure and heart rate were investigated in comparison with those of diltiazem in anesthetized dogs. MCI-176, like diltiazem, dose-dependently increased coronary and aortic blood flows and decreased mean blood pressure. In p...

Phagocytosis has long been recognized as one of the differentiated functions of the macrophage and yet many of the cellular and biochemical mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Rabinovitch has separated the process of phagocytosis into two phases: attachment and ingestion (1). The former is dependent both on the surface properties of the cell and on the particle and is independent...

The inaccurate placement of minority students in special education programs can take various forms including overrepresentation, underrepresentation, and misidentification. First, overrepresentation occurs when the percentage of minority students in special education programs is greater than that in the school population as a whole. Second, underrepresentation occurs when students with disabili...

The main feature of this new approach to platelet freezing is a controlled rate of addition and postthaw removal of 5#{176}/odimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). When DMSO was removed from fresh nonfrozen platelet concentrates before transfusion, no adverse effect on posttransfusion survival was observed. The 51Cr recovery of autologous fresh platelet concentrates in vivo was 65#{176}/o ± 5#{176}/o, while...

C(R ;R) is the space of m-times, continuously differentiable funtions, C b (R ;R) is the subspace of C(R ;R) whose elements have bounded derivatives of all orders less than of equal to m, C c (R ;R) is the subspace of C b (R ;R) whose elements have compact support, C 1,2 b ( [0,∞)×R ;R) is the space functions (t,x) ∈ [0,∞) × R 7−→ u(t,x) ∈ R which have one bounded, continuous derivative with re...

Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae) as alternative to current WHO MDT. Individual drugs tested were Rifampicin (RMP), Rifapentine (RPT) and Moxifloxacin (MOXI). Drug combinations were RMP, Clarithromycin (CLARI), Minocycline (MINO) and RMP, MINO and Ofloxacin (OFLO). RPT drug combinations were RPT, CLARI, MINO and RPT, OFLO, MINO. Both the drugs and drug combinations were used as daily regimen and...

Abstract Date Presented 04/20/2023 Children with unilateral weakness may demonstrate improved functional goal achievement less dosage requirement when constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is paired transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS), indicating burden to participants and encouraging translation OT clinical practice.

Thelephorales Corn ex. Oberw. belong to the Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota, Fungi) and comprise more than 177 species (Kirk et al., 2008) that are classified into two families: the Bankeraceae Donk (mostly with colourless basidiospores) and the Thelephoraceae Chevall. (mostly with brown to yellowish basidiospores) (Yorou & Agerer, 2007). Bankeraceae are characterized by a typical fenugreek odour...
