When exposed to a hypoxic environment the body's first response is a reflex increase in ventilation, termed the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR). With chronic sustained hypoxia (CSH), such as during acclimatization to high altitude, an additional time-dependent increase in ventilation occurs, which increases the HVR. This secondary increase persists after exposure to CSH and involves plastici...

Caregivers must assume responsibility for the safety of infants, toddlers and preschoolers because children at these developmental stages have limited abilities to appraise risk and differentiate unsafe from safe situations. Historically, research on child safety has focused on what safety practices caregivers adopt, why they do so, and how to motivate them to enact better safety practices. 1-6...

Cross-species hybridization (CSH), i.e., the hybridization of a (target) species RNA to a DNA microarray that represents another (reference) species, is often used to study species diversity. However, filtration of CSH data has to be applied to extract valid information. We present a novel approach to filtering the CSH data, which utilizes spot characteristics (SCs) of image-quantification data...

maternity child health is one of the important and essential aspects of health services that must be considered as a priority in administrative programs because mothers and their children more than other people in the community are affected by perilous environmental factors. they are very vulnerable that lead to disease, failure to thrive, inability and death. every year, poor hygiene leads to ...

This study aimed to investigate the effect of combining an innovative bioceramic α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-CSH, CaSO4⋅0.5H2O) bone graft and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) accelerate healing regeneration in a rabbit model. The material was implanted bilaterally on rabbit’s artificially maxillary sinus defects: right received α-CSH, while α-CSH combine with PRP (α-CSH/PRP) grafted left site. ...
