Ten mg hydrocortisone (HC) was administered intravenously to a healthy volunteer after a dexamethasone suppression test and HC concentrations were determined from 1-270 min in plasma, plasma water and on erythrocytes. HC was extracted from erythrocyte concentrates with high efficiency by HC-poor plasma or by human or bovine albumin solutions. Determination of HC in the plasma of the volunteer m...

BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is one of the most distressing side effects for patients undergoing chemotherapy. This study evaluated the protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) on CIA in a well-established in vitro human hair follicle organ culture model as it occurs in vivo. METHODS We examined whether KRG can prevent premature hair follicle dystrophy in a human hair f...

We develop a two-country, two-sector model of trade where the only difference between the two countries is their distribution of human capital endowments. We show that even if the two countries have identical aggregate human capital endowments the pattern of trade depends on the properties of the two human capital distributions. We also show that the two distributions of endowments also complet...

We examine the relationship between different dimensions of the political regime in place and human capital using a two-step structural equation model. In the first step, we employ factor analysis on 16 human capital indicators to construct two new human capital measures (basic and advanced human capital). In the second step, we estimate the impact of our political variables on human capital, u...

The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoprotein US11 diverts class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) heavy chains (HC) from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cytosol, where HC are subjected to proteasome-mediated degradation. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts that are deficient for X-box binding protein 1 (XBP-1), a key transcription factor in the unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway, ...

The proliferation of social media has promoted the spread misinformation that raises many concerns in our society. This paper focuses on a critical problem explainable COVID-19 detection aims to accurately identify and explain misleading claims media. Motivated by lack relevant knowledge existing solutions, we construct novel crowdsource graph based approach incorporate facts leveraging collabo...

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the relationship between intellectual capital (human capital efficiency, customer capital efficiency, and structural capital efficiency) and economic value added of the listed companies on the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). The population includes 39 firms selected through systematic sampling. The data is collected from the audited financial stat...
