Rats were injected subcutaneously with 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD 2.6 m mol/kg) alone (HD group) or with 2,5-HD and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) (2.6 m mol/kg of each agent, HD&MEK group) or with 2,5-HD 2.6 m mol/kg and 5 times that dose (13.0 m mol/kg) of MEK (HD&5MEK group). The concentration of 2,5-HD in serum and in the sciatic nerve was determined 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 h after administration. ...

this study proposes a new linear approximation for solving the dynamic response equations of a rocking rigid block. linearization assumptions which have already been used by hounser and other researchers cannot be valid for all rocking blocks with various slenderness ratios and dimensions; hence, developing new methods which can result in better approximation of governing equations while keepin...

the structural slenderness ration (height/ with) is one of the title that can be discussed in quake design of building. but unfortunately, in  iranian code isn’t mention this mater.in this article, bending and bracying structures system are chosen with slenderness ratio 2 upto 6. (11, 17, 23, 29, 35 stage).all of structure are analysed and designed in linear method, then analysed in unlinear me...

Continuous planting is the primary method for managing Eucalyptus plantations. The “space-replacing time” approach assesses growth parameters of trees in China across generations, including height, diameter at breast height (DBH), slenderness ratio, trunk oblateness, and longitudinal strain. findings reveal: (1) significant variations strain occur among with average increasing noticeably; (2) g...

A mesh-free method based on moving least squares approximation (MLS)  and weak form of governing equations including two dimensional equations of motion and Maxwell’s equation is used to analyze the free vibration of functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) beams. Material properties in beam are determined using a power law distribution. Essential boundary conditions are imposed by the...

CONTEXT The frequency of occurrence of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) is in dispute. This uncertainty has contributed to the concern that too many children in the United States are being treated with stimulant medication. OBJECTIVES To determine the cumulative incidence of AD/HD in a population-based birth cohort and to estimate the prevalence of pharmacologic treatment for ...

Residual kidney function (RKF) contributes to improved survival in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, it is not clear whether RKF allows a comparable survival rate in patients undergoing twice-weekly HD compared with thrice-weekly HD.We enrolled 685 patients from a prospective multicenter observational cohort. RKF and HD adequacy was monitored regularly over 3-year follow-up. Patients with RK...
