Many cities have been built along large rivers. The rivers can provide a source of drinking water, act as receiving water for treated effluent, provide navigation for shipping, and other beneficial uses. However, the city must also be protected from flooding due to the close proximity to the river. Hydrologic analysis plays a crucial role in the development of plans for protecting a river city....

This work focused on the collection and preparation of data required for hydrological modelling Beht catchment area, which covers an area 4560 km 2 with a perimeter 414 km, by combining various spatial technologies, in particular geographical information systems (GIS), remote sensing, digital terrain models (DTM), order to prepare used flood forecasting. The methodology consists, at first, auto...

Single-cell recording, electrolytic lesion and electrical stimulation studies have indicated that the pontomedullary reticular formation (PMRF) plays a role in head movement (HM) control. However, recent studies utilizing excitotoxin lesions of the PMRF have reported no effect on HM. In the present study, we have examined the acute and chronic motor effects of injecting ibotenic acid (IBO) into...

PURPOSE To assess the clinical features and distribution of brain metastases (BMs) of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) in the hippocampal and perihippocampal region, with the purpose of exploring the viability of hippocampal-sparing whole-brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) on reducing neurocognitive deficits. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics and patterns o...

INTRODUCTION Excessive mechanical loading of intervertebral discs (IVDs) is thought to alter matrix properties and influence disc cell metabolism, contributing to degenerative disc disease and development of discogenic pain. However, little is known about how mechanical strain induces these changes. This study investigated the cellular and molecular changes as well as which inflammatory recepto...
