T2: (2) kg / 100 diet). T3: (4 l T4: (2 litter). T5: litte...

Background: Chronic or recurrent rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a disease associated with impaired quality of life and substantial societal costs. Many cases present without a clear underlying cause and despite the lack of etiology current treatment protocols dictate intervention with antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs or surgery often with poor long-term outcome. Recent studies indicate that commen...

The effects of a chronic load of nonabsorbable sugars on intracolonic bacterial metabolism of carbohydrates and on H2 breath excretion are disputed. However, most of the discussion relies on indirect evidence or on results of in vitro studies. Thus, we attempted to assess directly and in vivo the effects on intracolonic metabolism of lactulose of a chronic oral load of this nonabsorbable disacc...

The present ethnobotanical study was carried out in Holi (Deol, Kut, Dal, and Lahaud Dhar) forest range and in Bharmor (Seri, Bharmour, Malkauta, Bharmani, Harsar, Dhancho, Sundrasi, Gorikund, and Manimahesh) forest range to obtain information on the plants used by the local inhabitants for several purposes. A total of 54 plants were recorded in this study. The plants are employed to treat simp...

This paper describes how a concept lattice that represents semantic relations (synonymy, hyponymy, hypernymy) in a set of words can be used for semantic matching. This kind of concept lattice is the result of the formal concept analysis technique used for determining semantic relations in a set of words extracted from a monolingual dictionary. It is shown how relations between concepts can be m...

Lactic acid is widely used in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries and has received increased attention for use as a monomer for the production of biodegradable poly(lactic acid). It can be produced by either biotechnological fermentation or chemical synthesis, but the former route has received considerable interest recently, due to environmental concerns and the limited ...

*Correspondence: H. Peter Linder, Institute of Systematic Botany, University of Zurich, Zollikerstrasse 107, CH-8008 Zurich, Switzerland e-mail: [email protected] Sub-Saharan Africa includes some 45,000 plant species. The spatial patterns of this diversity have been well explored. We can group the species into a set of biogeographical regions (largely co-incident with regions defined ...

The isolation rate of Streptococcus pneumoniae in sputum cultures from patients with pneumococcal pneumonia is low. An investigation was made to determine whether this low yield might be due to loss of pneumocci and/or overgrowth by pharyngeal flora before the specimen is plated. Pneumococcal survival times and pharyngeal overgrowth at 4 degrees C and at room temperature were determined in sput...

The paper explores the possibility of performing temporal projection in the “Digital Aristotle” reasoning system. In particular, it investigates the relationship between two methods for computing trajectories of dynamic systems: a first method using action languages and the answer set semantics, and a second method using the object-oriented declarative language Flora-2. The former method is sou...
