stalks. Similar results were reported by Bhardwaj et al. (1996) for kenaf consumption by goats (Capra hicus). A broadleaf forage crop grown in rotation with winter wheat (TritiUnger (2001) in the Texas Panhandle (average annual cum aestivum L.) would diversify dryland crop rotations in the central Great Plains. Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) provides good quality precipitation 475 mm; average J...

Introduction Detailed information on anatomy and hemodynamics in cerebrovascular disorders such as AVM and Moyamoya disease is mandatory for defined diagnosis and treatment planning [1]. DSA may still be a gold standard for diagnostic modality but is otherwise invasive. Contrast-enhanced dynamic MR angiography (CE-dMRA) is a useful technique but poses a risk associated with contrast agent [2]. ...

P e x l l p (formerly Pmp27) has been implicated in peroxisomal proliferation (Erdmann, R., and G. Blobel. 1995. J. Cell Biol. 128: 509-523; Marshall, P.A., Y.I. Krimkevich, R.H. Lark, J.M. Dyer, M. Veenhuis, and J.M. Goodman. 1995. J. Cell Biol. 129: 345355). In its absence, peroxisomes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae fail to proliferate in response to oleic acid; instead, one or two large peroxis...

Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is delivered through a didactic, blended learning, and mixed models. Students are supposed to construct an answerable question in PICO (patient, intervention, comparison, and outcome) framework, acquire evidence through search of literature, appraise evidence, apply it to the clinical case scenario, and assess the evidence in relation to clinical context. Yet these...

Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality and a major driver of health care costs in patients with type 2 diabetes. Observational studies suggest that insulin resistance and hyperglycemia independently predict atherosclerosis (1,2). However, recent clinical trials have been disappointing in that intensive glycemic control does not reduce the risk of CV events i...

Objectives: Successful engraftment of human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-infected cells and a marked increase of proviral DNA loads (PVLs) in non-obese diabetic/ severe combined immunodeficient (NOD/SCID)/ c null (NOG) mice have been reported. Whether the increased PVL in transplanted mice is due to the new infection of HTLV-1 was examined. Methods: Mononuclear cells from 3 NOG mice wit...

The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying type 2 diabetes (T2D) and prediabetes involve an interaction between β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance (IR). The resulting hyperglycemia, as well as other clustered cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in T2D, constitutes a severe hazard for development of complications to the disease. To optimally treat these risk factors, it is vital to antagonize th...

RF thermal plasma synthesis of zinc-ferrite nanopowders has been studied from metallurgical wastes of high iron oxide and zinc oxide and/or hydroxide content. XRD measurements of the products revealed that an extensive spinel formation took place on RF plasma treatment. However, instead of expectable ZnFe2O4, formation of zinc ferrous ferrites (Zn0,7Fe2,3O4 and Zn0,4Fe2,6O4) was concluded from ...
