In this study, the efficacy of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of craniospinal involvement with polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) in McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) and related complications were reviewed. In CT, ground-glass appearance with well-defined borders was seen, with medullary widening and cortical thinning. More rarely, cystic/necrotic...

The cores of the ADPLL-based frequency synthesizer are digital controlled oscillator (DCO) and phase frequency detector (PFD). A modified digitally controlled delay element (DCDE) with characteristics of its monotonicity and insensitivity to PVT variations is presented for the DCO design. We also proposed a new PFD architecture that can finish phase and frequency comparison and adjustment in on...

The CMOS PLL based Frequency Synthesizer is a vital role in Receiver front end Sub component. The main objective of this paper is to design a high frequency of oscillation, less phase noise and power efficient PLL. In general, the PLL contains PFD, Loop Filter, VCO and Frequency Divider. The VCO is a critical component in Phase Locked Loop for low power CMOS designs. Here the Source Coupled VCO...

The study investigated the effects of feeding duration on length and weight ileum, basal endogenous loss (BEL) phosphorus (P) broiler chickens fed a P-free diet (PFD). A standard starter was to 384 birds for 15 days. On day 15, they were weighed randomly allocated one three treatment groups in randomized complete block design, with eight replicate cages per 16 cage. each group PFD 2, 3, or 4 Th...

The pelvic floor functions as a holistic entity. organs, bladder, bowel, smooth and striated muscles, nerves, ligaments other connective tissues are directed cortically reflexly from various levels of the nervous system. Such integration is essential for system’s multiple functions, example, girdle stability, continence, voiding/defecation, sexuality. Pelvic dysfunction (PFD) related to variety...

Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is an umbrella term used for disorders like, Urinary Incontinence, Organ Prolapse, Urgency etc. There are many evaluation and treatment tools available pelvic assessment. The purpose of this review was to know the effectiveness usage perineometer PFD in women, with focus on current clinical practice.

Jitter is extremely important in PLL based systems. The effects of jitter range from not having any effect on system operation to rendering the system completely non-functional. Reducing Jitter and power supply is one way to help to improve the system performance. This review will concentrate on jitter and power supply in PLL building blocks. KeywordsLOW POWER, LOW JITTER, PFD, PLL ____________...

BACKGROUND Prions are infectious proteins propagating as self-perpetuating amyloid polymers. The [Het-s] prion of Podospora anserina is involved in a cell death process associated with non-self recognition. The prion forming domain (PFD) of HET-s adopts a β-solenoid amyloid structure characterized by the two fold repetition of an elementary triangular motif. [Het-s] induces cell death when inte...

OBJECTIVE To validate energy intake (EI) estimated from a pre-coded food diary (PFD) against energy expenditure (EE) measured with a valid physical activity monitor (SenseWear Pro3 Armband) and to evaluate whether misreporting was associated with overweight/obesity in a group of elderly men. METHODS Forty-seven healthy Norwegian men, 60-80 years old, completed the study. As this study was par...
