A total of 50 patients were enrolled in the study, and MRI brain with MR spectroscopy was done. Out of these, 35 were HIV positive patients (cases). 15 patients with HIV negative status who also underwent MRI for unrelated pathologies were enrolled as controls. They also underwent MRI brain with MR spectroscopy. Tuberculosis was the most common neurologic disease found in the HIV positive group...

A field experiment was conducted to find out the Effect of two concentrations GA3 and NAA their combinations on growth yield brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) cv. Kashi Sandesh. The laid in Randomized Block Design with three replications nine treatments. Higher attributing characters viz. maximum plant height (71.14 cm), number leaves per (71.65), branches (12.77), Days 50% flowering (43.12) &...

N-Acetylaspartic acid (NAA) occurs at relatively high concentrations exclusively in the mammalian and avian brain and undergoes rapid rise in level soon after birth (Tallan, 1957). The amount of NAA in brains of mentally abnormal human beings and of young human beings was measured. The route by which NAA is synthesized was shown to involve a direct acetylation of aspartic acid. The degradative ...

N-Acetyl-aspartate (NAA) is almost exclusively localized in neurons in the mature brain and might be used as a neuronal marker. It has been reported that the NAA content in human brain is decreased in neurodegenerative diseases and in stroke. Since the NAA content can be determined by nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, it has potential as a diagnostic and prognostic marker. The objective of...

Natural autoantibodies (NAA) and their associated B cells constitute a substantial proportion of the normal Ab and B cell repertoire. They often have weak reactivity toward a variety of self-Ags such as DNA, nucleoproteins, and phospholipids. It remains controversial whether NAA contribute to or protect from autoimmune diseases. Using site-directed transgenic (sd-tg) mice expressing a prototypi...

Andrographis paniculata is an important medicinal plant which possesses many applications. Looking to the importance of growth regulators one study was carried out on influence foliar spraying treatments in yield Kariyatu. Different includes NAA (50,100 and 200 mg l-1) , GA3 Paclobutrazol with as control were considered application at 30 days after transplanting. Experimental results indicated ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE One former study reported higher prefrontal N-acetylaspartate (NAA) levels in patients with Asperger syndrome (AS). The objective of the current study was to test the hypothesis that patients with AS would have higher dorsolateral prefrontal and anterior cingulate cortex NAA/creatine (Cr) and that NAA/Cr would be correlated with symptom severity. MATERIALS AND METHODS N...

OBJECTIVES To describe the prevalence and characteristics of isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae grown from urine samples that produced negative results with nucleic acid amplification assays (NAA) targeting the cppB gene. METHODS An initial cluster of culture positive, but cppB gene based NAA negative, gonococcal infections was recognised. Urine samples and suspensions of gonococci isolated ov...

In the present study, an attempt was made to induce rooting from single-node cuttings of hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. × P. tremuloides Michx.) with different concentrations of Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), Indole-3-Butytric acid (IBA) and 1-Naphthylacetic acid (NAA). Among the three auxins used, 0.54 mM NAA showed more effective induction on rooting as compared to IAA and IBA at the whole lev...
