This crossover study assessed the effectiveness of plain water (PW), sports drink (SD), fresh young coconut water (CW) and sodium-enriched fresh young coconut water (SCW) on whole body rehydration (R) and plasma volume (PV) restoration after exercise-induced dehydration. Ten healthy male subjects ran at 65% of VO2max in an environmental temperature of 32.06 +/- 0.02 degree C with a relative hum...

BACKGROUND Pulsed wave (PW) Doppler echocardiography has become a routine non invasive cardiac diagnostic tool in most species. However, evaluation of intracardiac blood flow requires reference values, which are poorly documented in goats. The aim of this study was to test the repeatability, the variability, and to establish the reference values of PW measurements in healthy adult Saanen goats....

BACKGROUND Wedge filters can be used as missing tissue compensators or wedge pairs to alter the shape of isodose curves so that two beams can be angled with a small hinge angle at a target volume without creating a hotspot. AIM In this study the dosimetric properties of Varian Enhanced Dynamic Wedge (EDW) and physical wedges (PW) were analyzed and compared. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ionometric ...

Our method for information retrieval uses Robertson's 2-poisson model which is one type of probablistic approach. This method achieved a comparatively high score in TREC. In the NTCIR contest, we designed systems that could be used for adhoc retrieval and cross-lingual task. This paper explains the systems. key words 2-poisson model, adhoc retrieval, cross lingual retrieval G °±ê+HKsÞð ·Ù À U ...

The diet of Indonesian women of childbearing age is relatively poor, posing increased risk for suboptimal pregnancy outcome. In a cross-sectional study including 403 women in three economic quintiles (Q), we investigated differences in dietary intake and nutrition sufficiency according to economic status and whether regular dietary intakes of pregnant women (PW, n 203) differ from that of pre-p...

A 3-year field experiment on a sandy soi] supporting a strawberry crop was carried out to study the effects of the application of three organic residues (AC, olive mill wastewater sludge compos!; MWC, municipal solid waste compost; and PW, paper mill waste) on organic matler content, enzymatic activities, and available heavy metals. Significant increases in organic carbon content (total organic...

Produced water (PW) and spent oil-based wastewaters are some of the largest mineral oil produced. Due to high toxicity hydrocarbons, several countries set stringent discharge limits its treatment is compulsory before discharge. In this work, biological coupled with production bacterial lipids demonstrated in sequential batch airlift reactors (SBAR). Two SBAR (2 L working volume) were used for P...
