conclusions the diagnosis of the high frequency of solitary ttv and co-infection with hbv, in both liver transplanted patients with cryptogenic and determined cirrhosis, emphasized on the importance of ttv infection in the development of cirrhosis, especially in the cases of cryptogenic ones, prompting for further studies the confirm this agent in the etiology of determined cirrhosis. results t...

Objectives: Compare total tumor volume (TTV) response after systemic treatment to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST1.1) and assess the prognostic value of TTV change RECIST1.1 for recurrence-free survival (RFS) patients with colorectal liver-only metastases (CRLM). Background: provides unidimensional criteria evaluate therapy. Those are accepted worldwide but limited by inter...

Introduction The semiconductor industry is now facing a major turning point in how to realize the next generation of large-scale integration. Recently 3D integration (3DI) using through-silicon via (TSV) has widely studied and wafer thinning has been considered to be a promising technology for enhancing system performance instead of conventional two-dimensional (2D) scaling due to technical and...

introduction: tt virus (ttv) is an unenveloped single-stranded circular dna virus. sensitive pcr (polymerase chain reaction) methods with primers designed for very conserved regions of the viral genome (utr) indicate high prevalence (> 90%) of ttv infection in general population of many countries world-wide. although there has been no evidence of its relation to any liver or other specific dise...

In 239 torquetenovirus-positive people, multiple-genogroup infections were common and associated with higher viral loads than would be expected from simple additive effects. The latter observation was restricted to the infections which included both genogroups 1 and 3, pointing to the possible existence of some kind of infection facilitation between these genogroups.

The Institute for Transport Studies at the University of Leeds is carrying out research about the reliability benefits from improved bus infrastructure. The study includes both demand and supply modelling, and it is hoped that the final stage of the project will include an economic analysis of the effects on reliability of different bus infrastructure improvement scenarios. Of the various measu...

Motivated by the unsettled conclusion on whether there are any transit timing variations (TTVs) for exoplanet Qatar-1b, 10 new light curves presented and a TTV analysis with baseline of 1400 epochs is performed. Because linear model provides good fit reduced chi-square false-alarm probabilities possible frequencies as large 35%, our results consistent null-TTV model. Nevertheless, ephemeris ref...
