Recently, the number of health-related car accidents in Japan has been increasing. Most health conditions leading to traffic are detectable by analyzing fluctuation blood pressure. In addition, cardiopulmonary arrest is an important condition that linked and should be studied along with respiration. Therefore, this study proposes a noncontact measurement system for cardiac dynamics respiration ...

The delta-like 2 homolog (DLK2) modulates adipogenesis, hematopoiesis, osteogenesis, and other cell-differentiation processes. In the present study, we detected potential polymorphisms in the DLK2 gene in 604 individuals of Qinchuan cattle by using PCR-RFLP and DNA-sequencing methods. Herein, we identified five novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (g.888G>A, g.910A>G, g.995G>A, g.4321A>...

BACKGROUND The World Health Organisation has recommended the use of anthropometric measurements as birth weight surrogates. However, it has been found that cut-off points for these anthropometric measurements vary across nations and ethnic groups. OBJECTIVES To determine the predictive values of chest circumference (CC), occipito-frontal circumference (OFC) and their combinations for low birt...

Case 3. He was born in April 1964 after a normal 40 weeks' gestation and spontaneous delivery. When 4 months old it was noticed that growth and development were retarded, and that chest deformities and contractures of the lower extrenities were appearing. The clinical picture was identical to that of Case 2 (see Table and Fig. 2). At 4j years he was admitted to hospital with pneumonia; at that ...

results the data showed that vital signs and physical examination findings are useful screening parameters for predicting chest radiograph findings in outpatient settings. therefore, by implementing a prediction rule, we would be able to determine which patients would benefit from a chest x-ray (sensitivity, 94% and specificity, 57%). conclusion this study's findings suggest that requesting che...

in order to identify the segre qtl affecting growth traits on the end region of chromosome 18 in a lori-bakhtiari sheep population, 162 animals from 5 paternal half-sib families were taken to be studied. phenotypic data included records of birth weight (bwt), weight at one month of age (w1), weaning weight (wwt), weight at six months of age (w6), chest circumference (gi6), body length (lg6), wi...
