Organ donation is an integral part of the health care system. Many patients who have had an accident or have undergone a progressive disease are in need of an organ transplant and if they do not receive the required organ they would die. It is important to know that the most important source of organ donation is the brain death patients. It is highly essential to determine the pivotal factors t...

Microvascular permeability to water is characterized by the microvascular filtration coefficient (K(f)). Conventional gravimetric techniques to estimate K(f) rely on data obtained from either transient or steady-state increases in organ weight in response to increases in microvascular pressure. Both techniques result in considerably different estimates and neither account for interstitial fluid...

The International Union of Immunological Societies now recognizes over 430 single gene inborn errors immunity, making the investigation suspected immunodeficiency in children increasingly complex. use immunomodulatory therapies, including biologics, may also cause both transient and permanent secondary immunodeficiency. This review outlines a practical approach to guide paediatric doctors allie...

transient ischemic left ventricular dilation (tid) is a marker of severe and extensive coronary artery disease as well as an increased risk of adverse outcomes. the patients with more severe and extensive ischemia, multivessel-type of perfusion abnormality as well as patients with left anterior descending artery (lad) territory perfusion abnormality have more probability of having tid. evaluati...

one of the most efficient mechanisms by which plants protect themselves from invading virusesis the specific rna-dependent silencing pathway termed post-transcriptional gene silencing(ptgs). in this mechanism, resistance to a virus is engineered through the expression of asegment of the virus genomein transgenic plants. potato virusy (pvy) is one of the mostdamaging viruses of potato, infecting...

joule-thomson cooling systems are used in refrigeration processes such as cryogenic gas liquefaction. although extensive studies have been carried out by researchers, most of them include cryogenic heat exchangers and their associated fields. in the current study, an attempt was made to indicate the effect of using inappropriate operational conditions in a cryogenic joule-thomson cooling system...

this paper works on the concept of flatness and its practical application for the design of an optimal transient controller in a synchronous machine. the feedback linearization scheme of interest requires the generation of a flat output from which the feedback control law can easily be designed. thus the computation of the flat output for reduced order model of the synchronous machine with simp...

introduction: several studies have indicated that late treatment of aminoguanidine (ag) reduces cerebral ischemic injuries in animal models. however, the effects of early treatment of ag on cerebral ischemic damage are not well understood. this study was designed to evaluate effect of early treatment of ag on cortex and striatum injuries as well as neurological dysfunctions in transient model o...

objective(s) the brief interruption of cerebral blood flow causes permanent brain damage and behavioral dysfunction. the hippocampus is highly vulnerable to ischemic insults, particularly the ca1 pyramidal cell layer. there is no effective pharmacological strategy for improving brain tissue damage induced by cerebral ischemia. previous studies reported that pentoxifylline (ptx) has a neuroprote...
