BACKGROUND Adalimumab blocks the action of tumor necrosis factor-α and reduces disease progression in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. The effects of adalimumab in controlling progression of structural damage in erosive hand osteoarthritis (HOA) were assessed. METHODS Sixty patients with erosive HOA on radiology received 40 mg adalimumab or placebo subcutaneously every two weeks ...

Hoa hồng chiếm 30 - 35% diện tích trồng hoa cắt của cả nước và đem lại hiệu quả kinh tế cao hơn nhiều lần so với các cây khác. Hiện nay, giống tại Việt Nam phong phú, đa dạng. Vì vậy, việc nghiên cứu tìm hiểu đặc điểm nông sinh học, khả năng trưởng phát triển sẽ góp phần nâng suất chất lượng hoa, cho người dân. Năm 2019 2020 đã thực hiện thí nghiệm nhằm đánh giá bốn nhập nội Mê Linh, Hà Nội. Th...

Abstract On 6 December 2006, Australia and Korea announced a joint study on a possible Australia-Korea free trade agreement (AKFTA) to promote trade and economic relations between the two countries. The paper provides empirical evidence on the possible gains and their transmission mechanism from this agreement. Significantly, it uses a new economic policy modelling approach, the endogenous grav...

Objectives Comparison of topography and corneal higher order aberrations (HOA) data of fellow normal eyes of unilateral keratoconus patients with keratoconus eyes and control group. Materials and Methods The records of 196 patients with keratoconus were reviewed. Twenty patients were identified as unilateral keratoconus. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), topography and aberration data ...

PURPOSE To compare the measurements of lower and higher order aberrations (HOA) of 4 commonly used aberrometers. SETTING Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary, Boston, USA. DESIGN Prospective, cross-sectional study, in a controlled, single-blinded fashion. METHODS Multiple readings were obtained in 42 eyes of 21 healthy volunteers, at a single visit, with each of the following aberrometers: A...

BACKGROUND The progressive deterioration of gait in Huntington's disease (HD) leads to functional decline and loss of function. To understand the underlying mechanisms responsible for the gait changes in HD, we examined the automatic control of gait by measuring the relationship between stride length and cadence. The relationship is strongly linked in healthy adults during automatic gait but di...

As part of the MILAGRO 2006 field campaign, the exchange of atmospheric aerosols with the urban landscape was measured from a tall tower erected in a heavily populated neighborhood of Mexico City. Urban submicron aerosol fluxes were measured using an eddy covariance method with a quadrupole aerosol mass spectrometer during a two week period in March, 2006. Nitrate and ammonium aerosol concentra...
