Background: The Pelger-Huet anomaly dominantly is a rare and benign inherited defect of terminal neutrophil differentiation. Although neutrophil migration may be minimally impaired, granulocytes function is otherwise normal association abnormalities such as ocular, musculoskeletal are reported very rare. Case: An eight year-old boy with good consciousness but severe muscular atrophia and diffic...

Abstract Wind turbines typically do not operate in the ideal operating conditions, leading to abnormal behaviour that is reflected their power curves. This can affect performance of condition monitoring processes, as it may mask faulty behaviour. By cleaning other data, such curtailment, models learn normal turbines. paper presents a novel technique utilises combination data binning and Mahalan...

Abstract Background Lentinan (LNT) may regulate many important physiological functions of human and animals. This study aimed to verify whether LNT administration could relieve diarrhea via improving gut immunity in rotavirus (RV)-challenged weaned pigs. Methods Twenty-eight pigs were randomly fed 2 diets containing 0 or 84 mg/kg product for 19 d ( n = 14). RV infection was executed on 15. Afte...

In this work, the propagation loss of three short range directive channels at 5.5GHz is measured using different directive antennas and a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA). Results are given for a channel bandwidth of 300 MHz which will be the future channel bandwidth of IEEE 802.11 ac system. It has been noted that the multipath induced fading tends to have Normal Distribution at low distance betw...

The pattern of lipid loss from the membrane of red cells incubated in serum is influenced by the availability of glucose. Under homeostatic conditions with respect to glucose, cholesterol alone is lost. This results from esterification of free cholesterol in serum by the serum enzyme, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, and is associated with a proportional decrease in membrane surface area, ...

BACKGROUND Neuroimaging measures have potential as surrogate markers of disease through identification of consistent features that occur prior to clinical symptoms. Despite numerous investigations, especially in relation to the transition to clinical impairment, the regional pattern of brain changes in clinically normal older adults has not been established. We predict that the regions that sho...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: acute kidney injury (aki) is commonly occurred in intensive care unit (icu) patients. the aim of the study was a comparison of rifle (risk of renal injury/injury to the kidney/failure of kidney function/loss of kidney function/end stage disease) classification with other scoring systems in the evaluation of aki in icus. materials and met...

skin aging is a continuous process that exhibits fine and deep wrinkles, thin and transparent skin, loss of underlying fat, dry skin and itch, following decreased collagen and elastin  synthesis. both extrinsic and intrinsic agents are considered in the pathogenesis on skin aging. extrinsic factors such as sun exposure, windy and dry weather, nutrition, and lifestyle may induce premature aging,...
