We present a theoretical model for Type Ib supernova (SN) 2006jc. We calculate the evolution of the progenitor star, hydrodynamics and nucleosynthesis of the SN explosion, and the SN bolometric light curve (LC). The synthetic bolometric LC is compared with the observed bolometric LC constructed by integrating the UV, optical, near-infrared (NIR), and mid-infrared (MIR) fluxes. The progenitor is...

OBJECTIVES Early identification of patients with blood stream infection (BSI), especially bacteraemia, is important as prompt treatment improves outcome. The initial stages of severe infection may be characterised by increased numbers of neutrophils in the peripheral blood and depression of the lymphocyte count (LC). The neutrophil to LC ratio (NLCR) has previously been compared with convention...

introduction: noradrenergic cells in lc participate in the process of cortical activation and behavioral arousal. the evidence suggests that locus ceoruleus (lc) plays an important role in the sleep-wake cycle. the aim of this study was stereological estimation of cavity caused by lesion and assessment of sleep stages after bilateral lesion of the lc. materials and methods: male wistar rats wei...

Background and Purpose:  Due to the important role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment plan in orthodontics, CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) images because of their three-dimensional nature, can minimize the disadvantages of two-dimensional images such as magnification, distortion, or superimposition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of conventional cephalograms...

background: to glean insights into the relationship among hepatitis b virus (hbv) genotype/subgenotypes, a1762t/g1764a mutations and advanced liver disease such as liver cirrhosis (lc) and hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) in southeast china. methods: a case-control study was performed, consisting of chronic hepatitis b (chb) patients (n=160), lc patients (n=150), and hcc patients (n=156). fluores...

introduction: it has been shown that orexin peptides have a role in opioid withdrawal behaviors. orexin-expressing neurons that are present in the hypothalamic nuclei send dense projections to the locus coeruleus (lc). withdrawal syndrome is temporally associated with hyperactivity of lc neurons. however, lc neurons do not show withdrawalinduced hyperactivity in the brain slices from morphine-d...

Introduction: Pain as a complex process in the CNS has been extensively studied by many researchers. It has been found that pain is controlled by certain pathways in the CNS, one of most important of which is the descending noradrenergic system. The pathway begins with Locus Coeruleus (LC) nucleus and ends in the spinal cord. In this study, formalin test was used as a chemical and tonic pain...

objective: ipomoea mauritiana is used in both ayurveda and folk medicine systems. the tuberous roots are known to be diuretic, depurative, carminative, and anthelmintic. the objective of the current study was to identify phenolic antioxidants from i. mauritiana using spectrophotometric and lc-ms analysis. materials and methods: an activity-guided fractionation and purification process was used t...

introduction: nowadays,  considerable developments  in  the field  of  radiotherapy have  been  achieved.  they  include  the  advances  made  in  the  equipments  and  treatment  planning  techniques  which  require  highly complex calculations. such achievements have made it possible to treat cancer patients not only  with  higher  radiation  dose  but  also  with  higher  precision  and  con...
