OBJECTIVES TO define the mode of inheritance of dermoid sinus. METHODS A chi-squared analysis was performed on data from 46 litters produced between 1990 and 2001. Data were corrected to avoid bias in the segregation ratio. RESULTS In data from 57 litters (n=492), 82 dermoid sinus positive offspring were observed. The frequency of affected offspring in the Swedish Rhodesian ridgeback popula...

ABT-492 exhibited excellent in vitro activities against all 326 aerobic and anaerobic antral puncture sinus isolates tested with MICs (in micrograms per milliliter) at which 90% of the isolates tested were inhibited as follows: Haemophilus influenzae, 0.001; Moraxella catarrhalis, 0.008; and Streptococcus pneumoniae, 0.015. It was four- to sixfold more active than other fluoroquinolones, includ...

Abstract Background Endometrial cancer is an invasive gynecological prevalent in the world. The pathogenesis of endometrial related to multiple levels regulation, referring oestrogen, tumor-suppressor gene (e.g. PTEN ) or microRNAs miR-23a and miR-29b). Metapristone a hormone-related drug, which widely used clinical treatment cancer. However, underlying regulatory mechanism metapristone on stil...

Physiologically the frequency distribution of biological data of living systems may be approximated by a lognormal curve, pathologically by a normal = bell curve. The Chi-square and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests are used for the data analysis. A chaos is the most frequent abnormal result. We investigated in 492 chaotically regulated patients 6 important diagnoses: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Guill...

Methods: Study inclusion criteria were being hospitalized, older than 18 years, positivity tested for SARS CoV-2-RNA after treatment. Initially treatment (group 1) was administered to according guide Health Ministry. Favipiravir ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate genetic and phenotypic parameters for some reproductive traits of Black Bengal does. Genetic parameters were estimated by Residual Maximum Likelihood procedure, fitting an animal model ignoring maternal genetic or permanent environmental effects. The least-squares means of litter size at birth (LSB), litter size at weaning (LSW), litter weight at birt...
