We report on the 5 0 scale spectral analysis of the X-ray emission from a region near the edge of the Vela SNR with a Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) model. We have found signiicant variations of temperature, density, ionization time and interstel-lar absorption. We have identiied an overdense region with higher density and lower temperature than the surrounding medium. That can be interpreted...

Serine proteinases produced by polymorphonuclear neutrophils play important roles in neutrophil-mediated tissue injury at inflammatory sites. Although neutrophil recruitment to the liver has been shown to be involved in the exacerbation of liver inflammation, the function of neutrophil elastase (NE) in liver injury remains unclear. Here, we found that administration of an NE inhibitor (NEI) red...

Systems biology is a general trend of contemporary scientific development. When coupling the classical traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Cold Syndrome and methodology of systems biology, we conformed to the genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome that are supposed to run through the overall macro behavior, and explored the macro and micro framework of systems biology of TCM Syndrome. W...

The purpose of the study was to assess the determinants of nutrition behaviors and body mass index and determine the impact of a nutrition education intervention (NEI) among Mauritian housewives. A pretest-posttest design was used assessing Nutrition Knowledge (NK), Nutrition Attitudes, Fruit and Vegetable Intake (FVI), body mass index (BMI). Two hundred Mauritian housewives were recruited. The...

After classifying internetworks into type internetworks, protocol internetworks, and organization internetworks, this paper focuses on the last of these. A key problem with organization internetworking is global routing scalability. In developing the NEI architecture to address this problem, some basic mechanisms/tenets of IP internetworking are upended. In NEI, internetworking addresses are no...
