abstract cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (csvt) in children has rarely been reported in the literature, especially without underlying disorder. it has increasingly been diagnosed due to clinical awareness and sensitive neuroimaging techniques. the aim of this article was to report a case of cerebral sinovenous thrombosis without underlying disorder. we reported a 5 year old girl, presented with ...

EFFECTS OF MILD DEHYDRATION ON THERMOREGULATION, PERFORMANCE AND MENTAL FATIGUE DURING AN ICE HOCKEY SCRIMMAGE Mark Edward Linseman Advisor: University of Guelph, 2011 Professor L.L. Spriet This study investigated the effects of progressive dehydration by 1.5-2.0% body mass (BM) (NF) on core temperature (Tc), heart rate (HR), on-ice performance, and mental fatigue during a 70-min scrimmage, com...

Breeding for Cercospora resistant sugar beet cultivars requires field experiments for testing resistance levels of candidate genotypes in conditions that are close to agricultural cultivation. Non-invasive spectral phenotyping methods can support and accelerate resistance rating and thereby speed up breeding process. In a case study, experimental field plots with strongly infected beet genotype...

The main objective of the work is study process dehydration fruits and vegetables, using two different types equipment for dehydration: convective dryer, equipped with drying trays; microwave field instalation, continuous flow. In case divided products will be placed evenly on trays following specific parameters determined: initial final humidity products; air temperature; air. equipment, in a ...

Leaf resistance for water vapor (total diffusion resistance minus boundary layer resistance), transpiration, and leaf temperature were measured in attached leaves of greenhouse-grown Xanthium strumarium L. plants that had been pretreated for 72 hours with high (40 C day, 35 C night), or low (10 C day, 5 C night) air temperatures. Measurements were made in a wind tunnel at light intensity of 1.1...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Extreme climatic events such as severe droughts are expected to increase with climate change and to limit grassland perennity. The present study aimed to characterize the adaptive responses by which temperate herbaceous grassland species resist, survive and recover from a severe drought and to explore the relationships between plant resource use and drought resistance strate...

The objective of this work was to develop and to evaluate neuro-fuzzy systems as a methodology to describe coffee harvester machine operational performance when compared to multiple regression models. It was considered as input variables fruit maturation index, in the levels of 75.70, 87.00, 98.70%, operational speed, in the levels of 0.16, 0.26, 0.57m.s-1 and rods vibration, in the frequencies...

In this paper, we propose a novel shape description method for mobile retrieval of leaf images. In this method, termed multiscale arch height (MARCH), hierarchical arch height features at different chord spans are extracted from each contour point to provide a compact, multiscale shape descriptor. Both the global and detailed features of the leaf shape can be effectively captured by the propose...
