Heat-responsive miRNAs regulate the expression of the transcription factors (HSFs) and majority of the heat stress-associated genes (HSPs). Here we report identification of few heats responsive miRNAs in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)through de novo sequencing on Illumina Hiseq 2000. Validation of identified miRNAs in endospermic tissues of thermotolerant (HD2985) and thermosusceptible (NIAW-34-3...

BACKGROUND Splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) rupture is life-threatening. Although elective transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) suggested low in-hospital death in previous studies, there has been no large multi-center study of elective TAE for SAA. PURPOSE To examine the short-term outcomes of TAE for splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) and analyze the factors associated with the outcomes, includ...

To evaluate the value of serum interleukin 6 (sIL-6) for the prediction of therapeutic effect and adverse reaction after transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE), sIL-6 was measured before and after angiography or TAE in 18 patients (three after angiography and 15 after TAE for hepatocellular carcinoma). The three patients with only angiography showed no elevation of sIL-6, while a significant...

The TAE (tweakable authenticated encryption) mode is an authenticated encryption mode which is based on a tweakable block cipher. Previous research results show that the secure tweakable block cipher is not sufficient for the security of the authenticated encryption TAE mode. Only when the tweakable block cipher is strong will the TAE be secure. Some improvements to the TAE mode are also given ...

To date there has been little data available regarding the safety and injury statistics in the sports referred to collectively as the Martial Arts which includes any of the Eastern methods of hand combat or self-defence: Judo*, Aikido, Jiujitsu, Kung Fu, Karate, Tae Kwon Do, etc. Much of the information is not too useful since it is several decades old and is derived from studies done primarily...

OBJECTIVE Vitamin D insufficiency is prevalent in various populations worldwide but with scarce data on physically active individuals. Vitamin D is important to athletes, affecting bone mass, immunity, and physical performance. This study evaluated the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency among young athletes and dancers. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING : Sport medicin...

We studied top-down attentional effects on adaptation to two aspects of sinusoidal gratings: contrast (CTE: contrast threshold elevation for detection) and orientation (TAE: tilt aftereffect, bias in perceived orientation). Adaptation was examined under five different behavioral conditions designed to assess the effect of alertness, spatial attention and the dimension attended. Alertness increa...

The tilt-adaptation aftereffect (TAE) is the phenomenon that prolonged perception of a tilted 'adapter' stimulus affects the perceived tilt of a subsequent 'tester' stimulus. Although it is clear that TAE is strongest when adapter and tester are presented at the same location, the reference frame of the effect is debated. Some authors have reported that TAE is spatiotopic (world centred): It oc...
