INTRODUCTION Healthy People 2020 set a goal to increase the proportion of children who receive the recommended doses of Diphtheria Tetanus and Pertussis, polio, measles mumps and rubella, Haemophilus influenzae type b, hepatitis B, varicella and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines to 80% from the 2009 baseline rate of 69%. The purpose of this study is to compare the recommended immunization rates f...

Peripheral nerve injury represents a huge burden to society. Following peripheral nerve injury, improved behavioral outcome may be the most important evidence of functionality of axonal regeneration after any repair strategy. Nerve-crush injury is a well-established axonotmetic model in experimental regeneration studies to investigate the impact of various pharmacological treatments. Hericium e...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present an innovative approach for the strategic design public–private partnerships (PPP) and private finance initiatives (PFI) based on ontology. Design/methodology/approach Adopting a historic approach, it introduces posteriori knowledge, deriving from scheme’s stakeholders at construction implementation phase PPPs. Continuous failures these collaborati...

This paper reveals some relations between fuzzy logic and quantum on partial residuated implications (PRIs) induced by t-norms as well proposes monoids (PRMs) lattices (PRLs) defining adjoint pairs. First of all, we introduce the connection lattice effect algebra according to concept given Borzooei, together with proof that operation in any commutative quasiresiduated is t-norm. Then, offer gen...

Abstract Glucanases provide an excellent option for pre-treatment of cellulose and improvement in properties microfibrillated cellulose. In our research, we have used two different enzyme formulations, a purified β-1,4-endoglucanase, β-1,4-exoglucanase rich mixture the focus study is on effect high protein applications PFI refined-microfibrillated (2,500 rev). At applications, fibers showed imp...

To evaluate regulated gases and solid particle number (SPN) emissions in high-load off-cycle conditions, two diesel vehicles with a particulate filter (DPF) urea selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system, respectively, four gasoline port fuel injection (PFI) were tested the worldwide light-duty test cycle, including an extra-high (Ex-hi) phase. All developed for Japanese market did not comply ...

Background: Accurate risk assessment of post-surgical progression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients is critical. Exploring key differentially expressed mRNAs (DE-mRNAs) regulated by circular RNAs (circRNAs) via the ceRNA mechanism could help establish a novel tool. Methods: network was established based on and correlation analysis. DE-mRNAs within associated with progression-free in...

Cluster expansions were introduced at the dawn of Statistical Mechanics for the study of high temperature gases of interacting particles. They constitute a powerful perturbative method that is suitable for geometrically large systems, such as encountered in Statistical Physics. Numerous articles have contributed to the subject; a list of relevant publications is [GK, Cam, Bry, KP, Pfi, Dob, BZ,...
