5-6 MHz PMNT/epoxy 1-3 composites were prepared by a modified dice-and-fill method. They exhibit excellent properties for ultrasonic transducer applications, such as ultrahigh thickness electromechanical coupling coefficient k(t) (85.7%), large piezoelectric coefficient d33 (1209 pC/N), and relatively low acoustic impedance Z (1.82 × 107 kg/(m2·s)). Besides, two types of Time-of-Flight Diffract...

Occupational exposures make important contributions to asthma morbidity. The role of low/moderate level irritant exposures remains unclear. We aimed to determine which occupational exposures are associated with asthma in an eastern European country with low asthma prevalence. The Estonian Genome Center of University of Tartu collected data from 50 077 adults in 2002-2011. Asthma was assessed th...

Intelligent power quality monitoring systems have become an essential component of high technology and high availability-oriented industries. Most power quality disturbances are non-stationary and transitory and the detection and classification have proved to be very demanding. The first step towards any solution for a disturbance is to recognize the presence of a particular type of disturbance...

As part of the World Health Organisation initiated MONICA project, 2000 men and women aged 30, 40, 50, and 60 from the general population were invited to undergo a medical examination with special emphasis on cardiovascular disease. A total of 1504 (75%) participated, 1209 of whom were employed. The participants answered a questionnaire on working, social, and health conditions and underwent cl...

Ror is an orphan nuclear receptor. In homozygous staggerer mutant mice (Rora), a deletion within the Rora gene leads to an overexpression of inflammatory cytokines. Because inflammation and hypoxia are 2 key stimuli of ischemia-induced angiogenesis, we studied the role of Ror in this setting. Ischemia was induced by ligation of the right femoral artery in C57BL/6 Rora / and Rora mice. After 3 a...

Ruxolitinib is JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor with established clinical benefit in myelofibrosis (MF). We analyzed long-term outcomes of 107 patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk MF receiving ruxolitinib at MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) on phase 1/2 trial. After a median of 32 months of follow-up, 58 patients (54%) were still receiving ruxolitinib, with overall survival (OS) of 69%. The splenomega...

A boycott is never far from a firm’s exchanges with its customers. Researchers in marketing need to understand consumer protest behavior, both to aid NGOs who wish to organize boycotts and to assist managers who wish to develop appropriate strategic responses. Boycotts, like many other problems of collective action, are subject to free-rider and small-agent problems: there appears to be little ...

OBJECTIVE We studied the steps in the process of obtaining abortions and women's reported delays in order to help understand difficulties in accessing abortion services. METHODS In 2004, a structured survey was completed by 1209 abortion patients at 11 large providers, and in-depth interviews were conducted with 38 women at four sites. RESULTS The median time from the last menstrual period ...
