BACKGROUND: GReliable prediction of patient response to fluid resuscitation is a crucial issue in the management of hemorrhagic shock. OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to investigate vertebral heart score (VHS) variation in fluid resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock patients and the feasibility of this method in determining resuscitation endpoint.  METHODS: VHS values were assessed using previ...

In this article, we provide an overview of translational arrest in eukaryotic cells in response to stress and the tactics used specifically by alphaherpesviruses to overcome translational arrest. One consequence of translational arrest is the formation of cytoplasmic compartments called stress granules (SGs). Many viruses target SGs for disruption and/or modification, including the alphaherpesv...

The possible role of the van Hove singularity (vHs) in stabilizing the low-temperature orthorhombic (LTO) phase transition in La 2−x Sr x CuO 4 (LSCO) is discussed. It is found that the vHs can drive a structural distortion in two different ways, either due to spin-orbit coupling or to dynamic Jahn-Teller (JT) effects. This paper discusses the latter effect in some detail. It is shown that a mo...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the intrahepatic ramification of hepatic veins and biliary ducts in American mink liver. Minks are not classical laboratory animals, but with the expansion of fur farming these animals have become available for many biomedical researches. Hepatic veins and biliary ducts of the mink liver were studied by dissection and injection corrosion technique. We determ...

Most optoelectronic devices operate at high photocarrier densities, where all semiconductors suffer from enhanced nonradiative recombination. Nonradiative processes proportionately reduce photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a performance metric that directly dictates the maximum device efficiency. Although transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers exhibit near-unity PL QY low exc...

The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence resistance change and adaptability on management at Vocational High School (VHS) in West Java, Indonesia. Using survey quantitative approach, research was conducted 61 VHS 27 regencies/cities with a representative sample 183 teachers. data were analyzed by descriptive Partial Least Square (PLS). It found that has negative management, positiv...

—————————————————— Combining the results of tunneling, photoemission and thermodynamic studies, the pseudogap is unambiguously demonstrated to be caused by Van Hove nesting: a splitting of the density of states peak at (π, 0). The fact that the splitting remains symmetric about the Fermi level over an extended doping range indicates that the Van Hove singularity is pinned to the Fermi level. De...
