SW-CG-HYPR and the conventional methods. The delineation of the myocardial territories supplied by LCX stenoses in SW-CG-HYPR images is clearly improved as compared to the reference images. Figure 3. Comparison of the signal changes vs. time curves between SW-CG-HYPR and reference methods in a dog study. Figure 1. Schematic of the perfusion data acquisition structure: (a) Conventional SR prepar...

Cholesterol granuloma (CG) is the outcome of the foreign body type of response to the accumulation of cholesterol crystals and is frequently present in conjunction with chronic middle ear diseases. Recently, cases of CG in jaws have been reported, but still, very few cases have been found of CG in dental literature. This article presents three rare cases of CG in the wall of odontogenic cysts e...

An autonomous wireless local area network (AWLAN) is a collection of wireless computers that can be rapidly deployed as an ad hoc network without the aid of any established infrastructure or centralized administration. However, existing routing protocols for such networks neither scale nor function on the Internet. Therefore, a solution is required that provides a gateway between the ad hoc net...

Clinical Guidelines (CGs) are developed for specifying the “best” clinical procedures for specific clinical circumstances. However, a CG is executed on a specific patient, with her peculiarities, and in a specific context, with its limitations and constraints. Physicians have to use Basic Medical Knowledge (BMK) in order to adapt the general CG to each specific case, even if the interplay betwe...

BACKGROUND The Wenchuan earthquake in China caused shock and grief worldwide. Sudden bereavement caused by the earthquake led to physical disorders as well as psychological disturbances in the bereaved individuals. The bereaved had a high risk for complicated grief (CG), which may have led to significant distress and impairment in their health. However, there was few available studies on CG amo...

BACKGROUND Big defensin is an antimicrobial peptide composed of a highly hydrophobic N-terminal region and a cationic C-terminal region containing six cysteine residues involved in three internal disulfide bridges. While big defensin sequences have been reported in various mollusk species, few studies have been devoted to their sequence diversity, gene organization and their expression in respo...

We study the implementation of block Krylov based iterative methods on distributed computing environments for the solution of general linear systems of equations First we study potential implementation of the classical conjugate gradient CG method on parallel environments From the family of conjugate direction methods we study the Block Conjugate Gradient Block CG method which is based on the c...

This study aimed at investigating the effects of different hand positions on the electromyographic (EMG) activity of shoulder muscles during the performance of the lat pull-down exercise. Ten healthy men performed 3 repetitions of the lat pull-down exercise using their experimentally determined 10RM (repetition maximum) weight. Four different common variations of the lat pull-down were used: cl...
