During the finishing phase of bovines, large amounts of subcutaneous and visceral fats are deposited leading to production inefficiencies with major impact on meat quality. A better understanding of the cellularity features of the main fat depots could provide strategies for adipose tissue manipulation. This study assessed the effect of feeding diets with distinct forage to concentrate ratios o...

The driver scheduling problem at Chinese electric multiple-unit train depots becomes more and difficult in practice is studied very little research. This paper focuses on defining, modeling, solving the depot which can determine size schedule simultaneously. To solve this problem, we first construct a time-space network based formulate as minimum-cost multi-commodity flow problem. We then devel...

BACKGROUND specific immunotherapy for Hymenoptera Venom (VIT) is considered a life-saving treatment in insect sting allergy. A few studies with depot VIT have been published, but they are mainly focussed on patients sensitized to Apis. METHODS this retrospective study was designed to evaluate both efficacy and safety of depot VIT for Vespula. Thirty-six patients (age range 6-73 years) with a ...

This review provides an update on leuprorelin acetate, the world's most widely prescribed depot luteinising hormone-releasing hormone analogue. Leuprorelin acetate has been in clinical use in the palliative treatment of prostate cancer for more than 20 years, but advances continue to be made in terms of convenience and flexibility of administration, and in the incorporation of leuprorelin aceta...

OBJECTIVES (1) To examine depot-specific PGE2 and PGF2α release and mRNA expression of enzymes or receptors involved in PG synthesis or signaling in human adipose tissues; (2) to identify changes in expression of these transcripts through preadipocyte differentiation; and (3) to examine associations between adipose tissue mRNA expression of these transcripts and adiposity measurements. METHOD...

1. D-Galactosamine-HCl induces toxic hepatitis in the rat and was used as a model to study some aspects of iron metabolism during liver cell damage. Some changes in iron metabolism were similar to those encountered in human acute viral hepatitis. 2. During the first 3 days of liver cell damage induced by galactosamine, liver depot iron and especially ferritin iron decreased by approximately 20%...

It is well known that muscle contraction and insulin can independently translocate GLUT-4 from an intracellular depot to the plasma membrane. Recently, we have shown that the fatty acid transporter FAT/CD36 is translocated from an intracellular depot to the plasma membrane by muscle contraction (<30 min) (Bonen et al. J Biol Chem 275: 14501-14508, 2000). In the present study, we examined whethe...

Vehicle Routing Problem is a common problem in logistics, which can simulate in-plant and out-plant material handling. In the article, we demonstrate Problem, contains period, time window multiple depots. this case, customers must be served from several The position of nodes (depots customers), demand are known advance. number capacity constraint vehicles predefined. leave one depot, visit some...

objective: the present study aimed to review the relapse rate in patients with schizophrenia treated with orally taken atypical agents (serotonin dopamine antagonists, sdas) and depot preparation of conventional (typical) antipsychotics. methods: in this historical cohort study, mean relapse per month (mrm) index, duration between initiation of antipsychotic treatment and the first relapse epis...

sugar beet cyst nematode (heterodera schachtii schmidt) is transferred to sugar factories along with the sugar beet root and its surrounding soil, so called depot soil. because of high infestation and the possible transfer and distribution of this soil, disinfestations of the depot soil should be taken into considerations. in order to assess the possibility for disinfestations of the depot soil...
