To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacies of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP), percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), and percutaneous mesh-container-plasty (PMCP) for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures (VCFs), a retrospective study of 90 patients with VCFs who had been treated by PVP (n = 30), PKP (n = 30), and PMCP (n = 30) was conducted. The clinical efficacies of these three tr...

Tumilowicz, Joseph J. (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pa.), and Klaus Hummeler. Heterogeneity of apparently complete poliovirus particles. J. Bacteriol. 87:1105-1113. 1964.-A chromatographic procedure was developed for separating the N from the H complement-fixing antigen of poliovirus. This procedure concomitantly effected some separation of classes of N particle. The ratio...

purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the presence of the water soluble polymers viz hpmc, pvp and peg 6000 on aqueous solubility and complexation abilities of felodipine with or without presence of β-cyclodextrin (βcd) and hpβcd by phase solubility studies. the data revealed the initial increase in drug solubility followed by plateau in the presence of relatively low polymer c...

Poorly water-soluble drugs N-5159, griseofulvin (GFV), glibenclamide (GBM) and nifedipine (NFP) were ground in a dry process with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Different crystallinity behavior of each drug during grinding was shown in the ternary Drug/PVP/SDS system. However, when each ternary Drug/PVP/SDS ground mixture was added to distilled water, crystalline n...

Welfare trade-offs between intellectual property (IP) protections provided by patents and by plant variety protection (PVP) are explored. PVP breeders’ exemption weakens IP protection, but may speed the transfer of research gains across firms. A model is developed assuming firms optimise research given existing IP protection. A baseline scenario supporting each system is used to perform welfare...

PVP-CMC and PVP-CMC-BA are designated as medicated hydrogels which are elastic in nature like other gels and solids. This present work was focused on the effect of strain on viscoelastic behavior of these medicated hydrogels. Dynamic frequency sweep test at 10% strain and dynamic strain sweep tests at different angular frequencies were performed on these hydrogels. Freshly prepared hydrogels an...

We present two scalar processors called PVP-SWPC and PVP-SWSW for high-speed list vector processing. Memory access latency should be tolerated for this objective. PVP-SWPC tolerates the latency by introducing slide-windowed floating-point registers and prefetch-tocache instruction. PVP-SWSW tolerates the latency by introducing slide-windowed general and floating-point registers. Owing to the sl...

Clarithromycin (CLA), a broad-spectrum macrolide, is a poorly soluble drug with dissolution rate limited absorption. The aim of this investigation was to prepare CLA nanoparticles from a ternary ground mixture in the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as co-grinding water-soluble compounds, in order to improve the drug dissolution rate. Different weight rati...

Bi-Pr-O composite nanoflakes were synthesized with the aid of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as surfactant. The characterization was performed by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. prepared consisted tetragonal Bi2O3, hexagonal Pr2O3, Bi0.4Pr0.6O1.5 smooth surface. size whole is less than 1 μm thickness 100 nm. formation can be explained a PVP-assisted growth mechanism. A systematic study ...
