Objectives—Patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) showing a selective impairment of episodic and semantic memory have recently been classified as aVected by focal temporal lobe dysfunction (FTLD) and considered as a distinct subgroup of patients aVected by a particular form of AD. The aim was to compare the cerebral perfusion of patients with AD with FTLD and patients with AD with the more typi...

in order to investigate factors affecting on seed germinating of london rocket (sisymbrium irio), lab experiments were set up in 2011 at the payamenoor university, mashhad, khorasan razavi province. effect of different concentrations of gibberellic acid (ga3) and cytokinin, wet and dry prechilling duration, hydrogen peroxide duration, ethanol, salt and osmotic stress and burial depth on seed ge...

This paper puts forward a reliability estimation method by the Degradation Amount Distribution (DAD) of products, using a composite time series modeling procedure and grey theory based on a random failure threshold. Product DAD data are treated as a composite time series and described using a composite time series model to predict a long-term trend of degradation. The degradation test is proces...

Since the interruption between receiving new AR’s RA and receiving BA from HA is depending upon DAD (Duplicate Address Detection), Mobile Node’s handoff performance is very much impaired by the Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) procedure for the newly formed Care-of Address in Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6). In this paper, we recommend a novel cross-protocol design approach for the DAD probl...

In contrast to other internal organs, pulmonary arterial hypoperfusion does not always show ischemic changes in the lung parenchyma. Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE)-related lung injury is extremely rare except in the case of pulmonary infarctions, in which PTE occasionally causes necrosis of the parenchyma. We describe the case of an 86-year-old woman who presented with respiratory failure and ...

A determinação qualitativa e quantitativa de carotenóides pode fornecer diferentes e importantes informações sobre os organismos que os contêm. Na análise de pigmentos por HPLC diversos detectores podem ser utilizados, como diode array (DAD) e eletroquímico (ED). O presente trabalho tem como objetivo desenvolver um método por HPLC utilizando uma coluna C 30 para a identificação e quantificação ...

the purpose of this study was to develop a sensitive and fast microdialysis coupled with high-performance liquid chromatographic (hplc) method for determination of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-hmf) in free-moving rats after i.g. administration of the aqueous extract of crud fructus corni and its processed products of jiuzheng pin (jzp). the concentration of 5-hmf in free-moving rats after i...

OBJECTIVE Pressure ulcer development is a quality of care indicator, as pressure ulcers are potentially preventable. Yet pressure ulcer is a leading cause of morbidity, discomfort and additional healthcare costs for inpatients. Methods are lacking for accurate surveillance of pressure ulcer in hospitals to track occurrences and evaluate care improvement strategies. The main study aim was to val...

BACKGROUND Obesity is a pervasive problem and a popular subject of academic assessment. The ability to take advantage of existing data, such as administrative databases, to study obesity is appealing. The objective of our study was to assess the validity of obesity coding in an administrative database and compare the association between obesity and outcomes in an administrative database versus ...
