The multi-snapshot, multi-frequency sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) processor is derived and its performance compared to the Bartlett, minimum variance distortionless response, and white noise constraint processors for the matched field processing application. The two-source model and data scenario of interest includes realistic mismatch implemented in the form of array tilt and data snapshots n...

The wild-type seed lima bean lectin (LBL), and recombinant LBL expressed in Escherichia coli show specificity for the human blood group A immunodominant trisaccharide GalNAc alpha 1-3[Fuc alpha 1-2]Gal beta 1-R. We have generated four site-specific mutants of LBL, two of which show altered specificity for extended carbohydrate structures. Four mutants, [C127Y]LBL, [H128P]LBL, [H128R]LBL and [W1...

We present an overview of the preparation and properties of layer-by-layer (LbL) deposited thin films and microcapsules in relation to their use in the development of biosensors and controlled release systems. Enzyme biosensors can be constructed by immobilizing enzymes on the surface of electrodes by LbL deposition without loss of their catalytic activity. In addition to synthetic polymers, ...

Low-glycemic index diets are associated with a wide range of benefits when followed on a chronic basis. The chronic effects, however, of the substitution of 1 meal per day are not well known in diabetic subjects. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether the chronic use of a low-glycemic index breakfast (low-GIB) rich in low-GI carbohydrates and a modest amount of soluble fibers could have an eff...

Abstract Background The concurrent use of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in oral anticoagulant (OAC) treated patients may be associated with a lower risk gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB), but evidence is still conflicting according to individual OACs. Purpose We conducted meta-analysis estimate the GIB OAC and PPI co-therapy. Methods A systematic search PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane was performed for st...

OBJECTIVES B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B-LBL) arising in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is exceedingly rare and poorly characterized. METHODS We describe four patients with CLL and concurrent or subsequent B-LBL diagnosed by morphologic, immunophenotypic, cytogenetic, and molecular analysis and reviewed the literature. RESULTS In three patients, B-LBL followed CLL by 5 to 15...

Severe gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) secondary to jejunal diverticulosis (JD) is very rare. Delay in establishing a diagnosis is common and GIB from JD is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We report an illustrative case diagnosed by push enteroscopy and managed with surgery.

PURPOSE T lymphoblastic lymphomas (T-LBL) are rare disorders of immature T cells which predominantly involve the mediastinum. Their oncogenic pathways and prognostic variables are not clear. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We undertook a retrospective study of 41 cytoplasmic CD3+ T-LBL (nine cases aged <16 years) by assessing stage of maturation arrest based on T cell receptor (TCR) immunogenotyping, imm...

Layer-by-Layer (LbL) is a method which can be used for nanoscale coating and surface functionalization of a material. LbL technique mainly uses the electrostatic attracting between charged materials (polyelectrolytes, nanoparticles, etc.) and an oppositely charged surface. In this study, protein separation (BSA) from lactose solution was carried out using the LbL self-assembly method, which was...

Amaç: Pandeminin farklı dönemlerinde 3. basamak bir hastaneye başvuran 65 yaş üstü neovasküler glokomlu olguların sayısında, GİB’ ı ve görme düzeylerindeki değişikliği incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Materyal metod: Hastalar karantina öncesi (21 mart 2019 -10 haziran 2019), dönemi 2020 2020), sonrası 2021 2021) glokom tanılı hastalar olmak üzere 3 gruba ayrıldı. Yaş, cinsiyet, dahil olan göz(ler), e...
