Aim: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is due to CTG repeats in the 3’UTR region of DMPK gene. It has an incidence of 1 in 8000 in the Western European and North American populations and a lower incidence of 1 in 20,000 in Japan. However, prevalence of the disease in diverse Indian populations is still unknown. Materials and Methods: The intention of the present study was to perform the meta-anal...

This paper describes how a runtime support library can be used as compiler runtime support in irregular applications. The CHAOS runtime support library carries out optimizations designed to reduce communication costs by performing software caching, communication coalescing and inspector/executor preprocessing. CHAOS also supplies special purpose routines to support speci c types of irregular re...

wheat flour is a commodity with a high risk of aflatoxins (afs) contamination. during the bread making there are many processes that can affect the afs stability. the effect of bread making process using different yeast types on afs levels was investigated. for this purpose, standards of afs including b and gwere added to flour and then bread loaves were prepared. three types of commercially av...

We present spectroscopic observations of the type 2 quasar SDSS J11311.05+162739.5 (z = 0.1732), which has the richest spectrum of forbidden high-ionization lines (FHILs, e.g. [Fe VII], [Fe X], [Fe XI] and [Ne V]) yet reported for an active galactic nucleus (AGN), as well as unusually strong [O III] λ4363 emission. The study of this object provides a rare opportunity to investigate the physical...
