(1) Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of myopia treatment in children using atropine 0.125% once every two nights (QON) compared with night (HS). (2) Methods: This retrospective cohort study reviewed medical records groups myopia. Group 1 comprised treated QON, while group 2 included HS. The first 6 months data outcome measurements were subtracted as washout periods those undergoing both QON...

We derive the minimum observing time scales to detect a blazar at a given flux level with the LAT on GLAST in the scanning and pointing modes. Based upon Phase 1 observations with EGRET, we predict the GLAST detection rate of blazar flares at different flux levels. With some uncertainty given the poor statistics of bright blazars, we predict that a blazar flare with integral flux > ∼ 200 × 10−8...

The delivery method of [continuous (CONT) vs. every other day or intermittent (INT)] a glucogenic precursor (GP) which was contained glycerin (500 g/kg), mono-propylene glycol (250 g/kg), calcium propionate (150 g/kg), niacin (1 g/kg) and sulfate-Co (350 mg/kg) on performance, selected blood metabolites and liver enzymes were evaluated. Twenty-four multiparous Holstein fresh cows were ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of docetaxel plus epirubicin combination as first-line chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic adult STS. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eighteen patients were treated with epirubicin 30 mg/m(2) on days 1 to 3 and docetaxel 100 mg/m(2) on day 1 every 3 weeks. RESULTS Fifteen out of 18 patients (83.4%) were...

The European Space Agency is currently developing Sentinel-1, a constellation of two polar-orbiting C-band radar satellites for operational Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) applications. The Sentinel-1 mission is designed for continuous and operational monitoring. The goal is to map the European land mass once every four days in Interferometric Wide Swath (IWS) mode, and the global land surface a...
