Although the role of IT is salient in sporting mega-events (e.g. instant replay, goal-line technology), IS research has not yet paid any attention to the processes by which technologies are selected for and implemented at these mega-events, the strategies used by actors, nor the consequences of such implementations on actors in related sectors and industries. To tackle this underdeveloped resea...

To compare parasitism and inflammatory process in esophagus and colon from chronic chagasic patients, immunohistochemistry was carried out to research for T. cruzi and to evaluate the inflammatory infiltrate in the muscular and myenteric plexus in 39 esophagi (20 with and 19 without megaesophagus) and 50 colons (25 with and 25 without megacolon). The frequency of T. cruzi in megaesophagus was 2...

Mega cisterna magna is a part of "Dandy-Walker Complex" and it is characterized by the enlargement of the cisterna magna, morphologically intact vermis and cerebellar hemispheres. We report a case of manic attack in a 23-year-old man with mega cisterna magna. The patient was treated with quetiapine 1,000 mg/day and sodium valproate 1,500 mg/day and the symptoms were ameliorated within 2.5 month...

We present the latest version of the Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (Mega) software, which contains many sophisticated methods and tools for phylogenomics and phylomedicine. In this major upgrade, Mega has been optimized for use on 64-bit computing systems for analyzing larger datasets. Researchers can now explore and analyze tens of thousands of sequences in Mega The new version also...

Using a sample of 58 million J/ψ events recorded in the BESII detector, the decay J/ψ → ωπ+π− is studied. There are conspicuous ωf2(1270) and b1(1235)π signals. At low ππ mass, a large broad peak due to the σ is observed, and its pole position is determined to be (541 ± 39) i (252 ± 42) MeV from the mean of six analyses. The errors are dominated by the systematic errors. PACS: 13.25.Gv, 14.40.G...

5 Worsening highway congestion is a challenge to mega-regional competitiveness; and 6 changing regional geographies and development location decisions, among other factors, demand 7 that public policy responses go beyond traditional demand management approaches. Congestion 8 pricing has been suggested as a remedy. In this article, we analyze the outcomes of multiple 12 NJ, PA and WV. Using a me...

In practice the coverage of this survey is even more limited for : "All bona fide residents of the State of Texas who were diagnosed as having a psychosis . . . and who sought psychiatric treatment for the first time in their lives during 1951 and 1952, were counted as 'cases' in this survey." People with neuroses or personality disorders were therefore not included. The case-finding procedure ...
