OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic value of combination detection of serum cancer antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA199) and carci noembryonic antigen(CEA) in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer by pooling the open published studies according to meta-analysis method. METHODS Diagnostic studies related to combination detection of serum CA125, CA199 and CEA in patients wit...

BACKGROUND We have shown earlier that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) administered by oxygen hood reduces pulmonary hypertension in an animal model (J Perinatol 2002; 22:50-6). Our objective in this study was to determine feasibility of iNO by oxygen hood in neonates with elevated alveolar-arterial oxygen gradients (A-aDO(2)). METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Masked randomized controlled pilot trial. In...

Due to the absence of side effects, reasoning about functional programs is simpler than reasoning about their imperative counterparts. However, because of the absence of practical debuggers, finding bugs in lazy functional languages has been more complex until quite recently. One of the easiest to use Haskell debuggers is Hood. Its behavior is based on the concept of observation of intermediate...

Cats deprived of pattern vision with hoods and normal cats were used. During the first 3 months of life some hood-reared cats had visual experience with a three-dimensional cross or a ping-pong ball. Recording were performed in adult cats with a pretrigeminal brainstem transection. Unit responses to the cross and the ball were recorded in area 19 within the projection of area centralis. Stimulu...

Currently the use of new materials is becoming more prevalent in vehicle industry for the lightweight design purpose. The design of engine hood is very important for pedestrian safety during a vehicle-pedestrian accident. In order to improve the pedestrian protection performance of the new material engine hood, the radial stiffening rib structure and trapezium sandwich structure engine hoods we...

First record of Preeriella Hood with one new Hoplandrothrips (Thysanoptera, Phlaeothripidae) from India

This article takes as its starting point the furious backlash against Otto Bathhurst’s 2018 remaking of Robin Hood legend, noting visceral disgust film evoked in many viewers despite critics’ generally favorable reviews. Taking a cue from Julia Kristeva’s work on abject and Michael Kimmel’s white “aggrieved entitlement,” essay teases out two interconnected threads that constitute sufficient thr...

With the development of machine learning and data mining, rapid design, verification manufacturing have become mainstream in machinery industry. In this paper, mapping function between mechanical properties hood its 11 dimensional parameters was mined using algorithms. By combining XGBoost LightGBM algorithms with bagging method, we proposed a hybrid model hyperparameters optimized by grey wolf...

Lee Hood took to mountain climbing naturally, while he was growing up in rural Montana. The technical climbing he still practises consists generally of “going up vertical cliff faces.” His hobby could be an apt metaphor for a career in biology marked by unorthodox approaches to daunting problems. In the 1960s, Hood became the first biologist to seriously bridge the gap between biology and techn...
