Amniotic band sequence (ABS) is the term applied to a wide range of congenital anomalies, most typically limb and digital amputations and constriction rings, that occur in association with fibrous bands (1). These alterations may be associated or not with cutaneous and visceral abnormalities. This work, which is a literature review, examines several studies that relate to cases of amniotic band...

This work aimed to characterize the sensory attributes of hot air-dried persimmon (Diospyros kaki) chips, correlate these attributes with consumer hedonic information, and, by doing so, present recommendations for cultivars that are most suitable for hot-air drying. A trained sensory panel evaluated dried persimmon samples (representing 40 cultivars) for flavor, taste/aftertaste, and texture. I...

In 1997 each LEP experiment collected approximately 55 pb −1 of data at a center-of-mass energy of 183 GeV. These data yield a sample of candidate e + e − → W + W − events from which the mass of the W boson, MW, is measured. The LEP combined result, including data taken at √ s = 161 and 172 GeV and assuming the Standard Model relation between the W decay width and mass, is MW = 80.35 ± 0.07(exp...

Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death is part of many retinal diseases. Here, we report that the ethanol extract of Diospyros kaki (EEDK) exhibits protective properties against retinal degeneration, both in vitro and in vivo. Upon exposure to cytotoxic compounds, RGC-5 cells showed approximately 40% cell viability versus the control, while pre-treatment with EEDK markedly increased cell viability i...

This study investigated mind-wandering (MW) in children during a laboratory task, and explored the influence of children's attitudes towards MW on the accuracy of their subjective reports. Children's MW experiences were probed during the adapted Sustained-Attention-to-Response-Task (SART), and their attitudes was measured by a questionnaire, according to which children were divided into positiv...

Dewasa ini, fitur keselamatan pada kendaraan roda empat atau mobil sudah sangat berkembang pesat. Hal tersebut terbukti dengan banyaknya produsen yang menerapkan teknologi seat belt, air bag, adaptive cruise control, electronic stability autonomous emergency braking, blind spot monitoring dan lain sebagainya. Namun, disebutkan diatas dinilai masih kurang ramah bagi pejalan kaki. Terbukti menuru...
