An intensive temperature sensor based on a liquid-core optical fiber has been demonstrated for the measuring the temperature of the environment. The core of fiber is filled with a mixture of toluene and chloroform in order to make the refractive index of the liquid-core and the cladding of the fiber close. The experiment shows that a temperature sensitivity of about 5 dB/K and a tunable tempera...

Circulants over Finite Fields The most basic question we can ask in the study of circulants over a finite fields is the structure of the units in the circulant ring. With one exception, we shall provide a complete description of the isomorphism class of the unit group. But, we shall only provide a method of constructing these unit groups assuming generators to the units of various fields are gi...

Obstetric cholestasis (OC) is the most common liver condition specific to pregnancy and affects around 5,000 women in the UK every year. It's generally benign for the mother although the main presenting symptom of pruritus can sometimes be so severe that the woman scratches herself until she bleeds. However, the main concerns are for the fetus, as the condition is associated with an increased r...

Background FBP (aka Folate Receptor-a) is an immunogenic protein that is over-expressed in breast, endometrial (EC) and ovarian cancer (OC). FBP expression in malignant cells is 20-80 fold higher compared to the limited distribution in normal cells. We have completed enrollment of a Phase IIa clinical trial with E39, an HLA-A2 restricted, FBP peptide vaccine + GM-CSF. The vaccine is administere...

TREM2 is an immunoreceptor expressed on osteoclasts (OC) and microglia that transmits intracellular signals through the adaptor DAP12. Individuals with genetic mutations inactivating TREM2 or DAP12 develop the Nasu–Hakola disease (NHD) with cystic-like lesions of the bone and brain demyelination that lead to fractures and presenile dementia. The mechanisms of this disease are poorly understood....

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is currently the most widely used surgical procedure for treatment of gallstones. The aim study was to analyze and compare postoperative results patients undergoing laparoscopic or open (OC) with regard complications, recovery time hospital stays.
 Materials Methods: This a retrospective which conducted at General Hospital Khulna some private...

BACKGROUND/AIM Parathyroid hyperplasia (PHP) is defined as an absolute increase in the mass of parenchymal cells of the parathyroid gland. PHP is classified as primary, secondary and tertiary. The enlargement of parathyroid glands (PG) is usually asymmetric, resulting in a "dominant" gland. In order to confirm the diagnosis, at least two glands should be examined histologically. Subtotal parath...

In the study, determination of optimal conditions for anthocyanin extraction from dried fruit barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) was aimed. For this purpose, solvent method used. The present investigation carried out to different such as solvents (ethanol and 2% hydrochloric acid, acetic acid citric acid), concentration ethanol (20-80%), suitable (1-4%), temperature (30-60 oC), time (60-240 min) r...

Quantitative information about the amount and stability of organic carbon (OC) in different soil organic-matter (OM) fractions and in specific organic compounds and compound-classes is needed to improve our understanding of organic-matter sequestration in soils. In the present paper, we summarize and integrate results performed on two different arable soils with continuous maize cropping (a) St...
