Congestion control is a recognized problem in complex networks. We have discovered that the Department of Defense’s Internet Protocol (IP) , a pure datagram protocol, and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), a transport layer protocol, when used together, are subject to unusual congestion problems caused by interactions between the transport and datagram layers. In particular, IP gateways are v...

The metabolic fate of tacrine [1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9-acridinamine monohydrochloride monohydrate (THA)] was examined in rats, dogs, and humans. After administration of single oral doses of [14C]THA to rats, dogs, and humans, drug-derived material was well absorbed, with urinary excretion being the predominant route of radiolabel elimination. Metabolic profiling of plasma and urine from rats, dogs...

With the arrival of an aging society and progress surgical procedures, total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been carried out more more. However, postoperative pain severely affected patient’s recovery, there is currently no reliable analgesic method available. Evidence-based international expert consensus also recommends, compared to LIA, peripheral nerve block (PNB) as a central approach use in TH...

BACKGROUND Innate immunity of which Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and CXCR1 are key elements plays a central role in the development of urinary tract infection (UTI). Although the relation between the genetics of TLR4 and CXCR1 and UTI is investigated partly, the polymorphisms and expression of TLR4 and CXCR1 in different types of UTI in adults are not extremely clear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FIND...

BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an increasingly common procedure among elderly individuals. Although conversion THA is currently bundled in a diagnosis related group (DRG) with primary THA, no study has identified whether patients undergoing conversion THA better resemble patients undergoing primary THA or revision THA. The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Impro...

We compared differences in isometric strength between older adults who have undergone elective unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) and completed rehabilitation with a population of community-dwelling older adults who have not had THA. The study was a cross-sectional design, and 22 unilateral THA subjects and 38 community-dwelling older adults participated. THA subjects received on average 1...

Tetracosahexaenoic acid (THA, 24:6n-3) has been shown to have the strongest ability to suppress accumulation of lipids in HepG2 cells among well-known n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids, such as EPA and DHA. In this study, a method for mass production of THA was investigated using distributions of THA and DHA in thirty-two marine organisms, such as starfishes, right-eyed flounders, shellfishes,...
