background: there are only a very small number of reports which discuss subtype, sex distribution, clinical features and laboratory characteristics of autoimmune hepatitis in children. the aim of this study was both to define the clinical features, biochemical and histological findings and also to determine the age and sex related distribution of autoimmune hepatitis (aih). materials and method...

this study was an attempt to investigate the relationship between teachers' personality type (feeling vs. thinking) and speaking skill of pre- intermediate efl students in iranian context. twelve teachers and forty eight students from a local language institute participated in the study. the myers briggs type indicator (mbti), an instrument based on jung’s personality theory, was taken from tea...

Over the past decades, China has been facing severe airborne pollution associated with atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5). Much attention has been paid to the physical transport of PM2.5 emissions. However, the embodied emissions, namely the emissions transferred through economic activities, have seldom been investigated. In this paper, embodied emission of PM2.5 from each sector of Be...

Eurypterids are a group of extinct chelicerates that ranged for over 200 Myr from the Ordovician to the Permian. Gigantism is common in the group; about 50% of families include taxa over 0.8 m in length. Among these were the pterygotids (Pterygotidae), which reached lengths of over 2 m and were the largest arthropods that ever lived. They have been interpreted as highly mobile visual predators ...

InP based ultra-thin quan[um well is changed from a square well, with quantum well infrared photodetector via rapid sharp interfaces, to an error-function shaped well, thermal annealing with a corresponding change in the confined energy 1cvcIs[3,4]. This tunability is of interest to IR QWIPS such as the detector photoresponse and absolute rcsponsivity. by gas source molecular beam epitaxy (GSMB...

A CNN+LSTM (Convolutional Neural Network + Long Short-Term Memory) based deep hybrid neural network was established for the citywide daily PM2.5 prediction in South Korea. The structural hyperparameters of model were determined through comprehensive sensitivity tests. input features obtained from ground observations and GFS forecast. performance evaluated by comparison with 3-D CTM (three-dimen...

The main focus of this study was to establish the feasibility working with intensity data individual events very heavy precipitation (50 mm or more in 12 hours less) observed over territory Ukraine using remote sensing (satellite GPM IMERG), as well verification satellite ground station (self-recording rain gauge data). consisted processing and maps – IMERG products, building tables graphs base...

Reference evapotranspiration (ET0) is a crucial element for deriving irrigation scheduling of major crops. Thus, precise projection ET0 essential better management scarce water resources in many parts the globe. This study evaluates potential Hierarchical Fuzzy System (HFS) optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm (PSO-HFS) to predict daily ET0. The meteorological variables and ...
