INTRODUCTION Subclinical hyperthyroidism (SH, grade 1, thyrotropin (TSH) ≥0.1 mU/L and grade 2, TSH <0.1 mU/L) is a common disorder with increased prevalence in older subjects. There is evidence for increased morbidities in SH, such as atrial fibrillation and osteoporosis. We aim to study the natural history and comorbidities of SH from patients referred to a tertiary endocrine clinic in Singap...

Grazing behavior exhibited by different biological types (breed groups) of lactating beef cows was evaluated during the summers of 1985 (Trial 1) and 1986 (Trial 2). Animals grazed native Montana foothill grassland. In Trial 1, breed groups consisted of Hereford (HH), 50% Angus-50% Hereford (AH), 50% Simmental-50% Hereford (SH), and 75% Simmental-25% Hereford (3S1H) with six cows per breed grou...

Dengue virus (DENV) infection causes dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic fever, or dengue shock syndrome. Mast cells have been speculated to play a role in DENV disease although their precise roles are unclear. In this study, we used mast cell-deficient Kit(W-sh/W-sh) mice to investigate the involvement of mast cells after intradermal DENV infection. An approximately two- to three-fold higher lev...

Neste estudo as frações metálicas, complexadas por substâncias húmicas aquáticas (SH) foram caracterizadas como lábeis/inertes em função do pH, tempo de complexação e concentração de SH. As SH foram extraídas por ultrafiltração e complexadas com íons metálicos bivalentes. Essas frações foram caracterizadas por processo de troca iônica utilizando resina celulósica Hyphan e procedimento em batela...

background and objectives: oxidative stress is implicated in the neuronal damage associated with alzheimer’s disease, parkinson’s disease, huntington’s disease, amyotropic lateral sclerosis and cerebral ischemic stroke. the present work was designed to establish the neuroprotective effects of salvia aristata extract on h2o2-induced apoptosis in human dopaminergic sh-sy5y cells. methods: the tot...

Pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (SH) is an uncommon benign or low-grade malignant tumor. Multicentric SH and SH with lymph node metastasis have rarely been reported. The present report describes a case of pulmonary SH with lymph node metastasis in a middle-aged female. A nodule was found incidentally in the lower left lung. The patient underwent left lower pulmonary lobectomy and lymph node dis...

1. Biosynthesis of PGE2 from [14C]arachidonic acid has been found to be lower and PGF2alpha higher in the renal medulla of spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats than in normal Wistar (NW) rats. 2. Biosynthesis of prostacyclin (PGF1alpha) from [14C]arachidonic acid was decreased in lungs, aorta and heart of SH rats. 3. Metabolism of [3H]PGF1alpha was decreased in renal cortex and lungs and PGE2 i...

sound transducer 24 mm in diameter and piezoelectrically active at both 1.0 & 2.0 MHz was used. Acoustic emission from 10% ethyl alcohol solutions were measured during insonation at acoustic intensity of 10 W/cm2 (1.0 & 2.0 MHz: 5 W/cm2 each) and the intensity of a subharmonic component at 0.5 MHz was calculated. SH phase shifting with a shift pitch not larger than 0.5 π and a shift interval ti...

This paper investigates the kinetics of structure H (sH) formation kinetics above and below the structure I (sI) formation equilibrium curve at temperatures of between 2°C and 6°C. Methane was used as a help gas and methylcyclohexane (MCH) was used as sH former. It was concluded that in the points above the sI formation equilibrium curve, at the first, the sI forms, and then converts to sH be...
