With the continuing rapid increase in the number of available 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences, it is a significant computational challenge to efficiently design 16S rRNA targeted probes. In our previous work, we designed a fast software tool called ProkProbePicker (PPP) that takes O(logN) time for a worst-case scenario search. Despite this improvement, it can still take many hours for PPP to...

A pseudowire (PW) can be used to carry Point to Point Protocol (PPP) or High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) Protocol Data Units over a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network without terminating the PPP/HDLC protocol. This enables service providers to offer "emulated" HDLC, or PPP link services over existing MPLS networks. This document specifies the encapsulation of PPP/HDLC Packet Data U...

    Background: This study was conducted to compare the main performance indicators of Hasheminejad hospital before and after implementing PPP model.    Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in Iran in 2015. Performance indicators of Hasheminejad hospital, the only Iranian unit that implemented PPP model, were applied. Data were collected based on a researcher-designed checklist af...

2-Phenyl-2-(1-piperidinyl)propane (PPP), an analog of phencyclidine, was tested for its ability to inactivate cytochrome P450s (P450s) 2B1 and 2B6. PPP inactivated the 7-(benzyloxy)resorufin O-dealkylation activity of liver microsomes obtained from phenobarbital-induced rats with a K(I) of 11 microM. The 7-ethoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin O-deethylation activity of purified rat liver P450 2B1...

Prepubertal periodontitis (PPP) is a rare and rapidly progressive disease of young children that results in destruction of the periodontal support of the primary dentition. The condition may occur as part of a recognised syndrome or may occur as an isolated finding. Both autosomal dominant and recessive forms of Mendelian transmission have been reported for PPP. We report a consanguineous Jorda...

Evaluating the sustainability risk level of public–private partnership (PPP) projects can reduce project risk incidents and achieve the sustainable development of the organization. However, the existing studies about PPP projects risk management mainly focus on exploring the impact of financial and revenue risks but ignore the sustainability risks, causing the concept of “sustainability” to be ...

BACKGROUND Persistent postoperative pain (PPP) is defined as persistent pain after surgery of greater than three months' duration. OBJECTIVES Identify the incidence of PPP in our hospital and its associated factors; evaluate quality of life (QoL) and treatment of patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an observational prospective study in adults proposed to various types of surgery usi...

conclusions according to the results, total direct medical costs for hcv patients in iran exceeded 12 billion ppp$ in (inf-rbv) treatment and 55 billion ppp$ in (peg-rbv). results average direct medical costs for the courses treated with conventional interferon plus ribavirin (inf-rbv) were 4,403 ppp$, and 20,010 ppp$ for peg-interferon plus ribavirin (peg-rbv) courses. there was an increase of...

With the advances and modernization of GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo QZSS, multi-frequency multi-system joint positioning has become mainstream navigation. Therefore, it is great importance to perform a comprehensive assessment signal quality performance multi-GNSS. In this work, we used multi-GNSS observation data collected by Multi-GNSS Experiment (MGEX) International GNSS Service (IGS), Hong Ko...
