The ground states of noninteracting fermions in one-dimension with chiral symmetry form a class topological band insulators, described by invariant that can be related to the Zak phase. Recently, generalization this quantity open systems---known as ensemble geometric phase (EGP)---has emerged robust way describe topology at nonzero temperature. By using quantity, we explore nature allowed for d...

RESUMO As práticas de gestão organizacional precisam se adequar às exigências eficiência e constante atualização tecnológica,não sendo diferente na Gestão Universitária, a Processos Negócio contribui para que essa adequação seja alcançada.Este artigo destina-se apresentar modelagem um Escritório Gerenciamento (EGP)para campus uma universidade federal brasileira. Para isso, realizaram-se coletas...

Objective: As the aqueous extract of Capparis spinosa (CS) possess antidiabetic effect, he present study aims to reveal the possible  mechanism of action of CS in diabetic mice.Materials and Methods: Both single and repeated oral administrations of aqueous extract of CS were performed in multi-low dose streptozotocin-induced (MLDS) diabetic mice. Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp was used in as...

Examples of how to simulate performance conservation agriculture (CA) and conventional tillage (CT) practices using cropping systems models are rare in the literature, from Eastern Gangetic Plains (EGP). Here we report a comprehensive evaluation capacity APSIM for simulating CA CT under diverse range (CT vs zero (ZT)), crop establishment options (puddled transplanted rice unpuddled rice), resid...

OBJECTIVE To elucidate the effects of pioglitazone treatment on glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 23 diabetic patients (age 30-70 years BMI < 36 kg/m2) who being treated with a stable dose of sulfonylurea were randomly assigned to receive either placebo (n = 11) or pioglitazone (45 mg/day) (n = 12) for 16 weeks. Before and af...

OBJECTIVE So far it is unclear whether chronic peripheral hyperinsulinemia per se might contribute to ectopic lipid accumulation and consequently insulin resistance. We investigated the effects of systemic instead of portal insulin release in type 1 diabetic patients after successful pancreas-kidney transplantation (PKT) with systemic venous drainage on the intracellular lipid content in liver ...

Islet damage from glucose toxicity is implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes, but the sequence of events leading to islet cell dysfunction and hyperglycemia remains unclear. To examine the early stages of islet pathology resulting from increased basal glucose loads, normal awake rats were infused with glucose continuously for 10 days. Plasma glucose and markers of islet and liver fun...

The genetic structure of three contiguous wild chimpanzee communities in West Africa was examined to determine the extent to which the community, the mixed-sex social unit of chimpanzees, represents a closed reproductive unit. An analysis of paternity for 41 offspring resulted in 34 cases of paternity assignment to an adult male belonging to the same community. Among the 14 offspring for which ...
