Although research to date on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) for adolescents has its limitations, growing evidence suggests that DBT is a promising treatment for adolescents with a range of problematic behaviors, including but not limited to suicidal and nonsuicidal self-injury. This article introduces dialectical behavior therapy's theoretical underpinnings, describes its adaptation for sui...

We have compared deep body temperature (DBT) measured at the forehead with the core temperatures of the nasopharynx, oesophagus and rectum during the warming phase of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (moderate hypothermia of 26.7-29.6 degrees C) in 12 patients. DBT was measured transcutaneously by an insulated thermistor probe that created an area of zero thermal flow between skin and subcutaneous ...

The excited states of UV-B absorbers, ethylhexyl triazone (EHT) and diethylhexylbutamido triazone (DBT), have been studied through measurements of UV absorption, fluorescence, phosphorescence, triplet-triplet absorption and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra in ethanol. The energy levels of the lowest excited singlet (S1) and triplet (T1) states and quantum yields of fluorescence and phosp...

The eff ects of Dangguibuxue Tang (DBT) on growth performance and immunity response in immunosuppressed broiler chicks were investigated in this study. 240 one-d-old broiler chicks (DaHeng S01) were randomly divided into 4 groups, 2.0% DBT-treatment (A), 0.5% DBT-treatment (B), cyclophosphamide-control (C), and control group (D). From 4 d to 7 d of age, chicks in group A, B and C were given cyc...

OBJECTIVES In Germany suicide ranks as the second leading cause of death in adolescents. Risk factors for suicide are impulsive and self-injurious behaviour, depression, and conduct disorder. The main hypothesis of our study is that Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for adolescents is an effective method of treatment for these patients. METHODS DBT was developed by Marsha Linehan specificall...

Data sets can be stored and are available for 3D cross correlating review. This new technique eliminates signific...

BACKGROUND Sulfur oxides released from the burning of oil causes severe environmental pollution. The sulfur can be removed via the 4S pathway in biodesulfurization (BDS). Immobilization approaches have been developed to prevent cell contamination of oil during the BDS process. OBJECTIVES The encapsulation of Rhodococcus erythropolis R1 in calcium alginate beads was studied in order to enhance...

MCM-41 mesoporous silica is synthesized based on a self assembly method, using a quaternary ammonium template, CTAB for the adsorption of sulfur compounds from model oil (1.0 mmol/l DBT in dodecane solution). Then the adsorption capability of MCM-41 assembled on the surface of bacterium Rhodococcus erythropolis IGTS8 is examined regarding the improvement of the biodesulfurization process of...

A homemade N doped-TiO2 nanoparticle were used to degrade dibenzothiophene (DBT) in a model fuel flowing on bench-scale glass-made falling film reactor irradiated by xenon lamp that emitted visible light. The photocatalyst was immobilized the glass sheet. EDS, SEM, and FT-IR techniques utilized identify morphology of nanoparticles. Different operating parameters (e.g., loading (0, 4, 5, 6 wt%),...
