An oscillating heat pipe (OHP) is an effective transfer device for the thermal management of electronic devices. However, mechanism OHP was not fully understood due to its complicated operation characteristics. In this paper, performance experimentally studied. The condensation and evaporation temperature variations were monitored under different inputs then used evaluate system operating Therm...

BACKGROUND In Nigeria, there is a high burden of oral health diseases, poor coordination of health services and human resources for delivery of oral health services. Previous attempts to develop an Oral Health Policy (OHP) to decrease the oral disease burden failed. However, a policy was eventually developed in November 2012. This paper explores the role of contextual factors, actors and the po...

The Oregon Health Plan (OHP), Oregon's section 1115 Medicaid waiver program, expanded eligibility to all residents living below poverty. We use survey data, as well as OHP administrative data, to profile the expansion population and to provide lessons for other States considering such programs. OHP's eligibility expansion has proved a successful vehicle for covering large numbers of uninsured a...

Users often face difficulties in accessing documents referenced by open hypermedia systems due to the different protocolsemployed. This is particularly a problem for OHP as it will often need to access documents in many varied hyperbasesystems’ stores or other third party information repositories when navigating links. This position paper proposes a documentmanagement protocol, ...

Introduction: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) comprises a group of autosomal recessive disorders, which are due to defects in single enzymes involved in adrenal steroidogenesis. The biochemical and clinical phenotype depends on the specific enzymatic defect. In 21hydroxylase and 11β-hydroxylase deficiency only adrenal steroidogenesis is affected, whereas a defect in 3β-hydroxysteroid dehyd...

Although studies have evaluated the ecotoxicity and fate of trenbolone acetate (TBA) metabolites, namely 17α-trenbolone (17α-TBOH), 17β-trenbolone (17β-TBOH), and trendione (TBO), their environmental transport processes remain poorly characterized with little information available to guide agricultural runoff management. Therefore, we evaluated TBA metabolite transport in representative agricul...

Cichlids offer an exciting opportunity to understand vertebrate speciation; chemical communication could be one of the drivers of African cichlid radiation. Chemical signals mediate key aspects in the lives of vertebrates and often are species specific. Dominant male Mozambique tilapia [Oreochromis mossambicus (Peters 1852)] release a sex pheromone, 5β-pregnan-3α,17α,20β-triol 3-glucuronate and...
