We report on the second and final year of geological mapping in the Nakina area, conducted under the Atlin Targeted Geoscience Initiative (TGI). Principal aims of the TGI are to create a legacy of high quality geoscience data that will stimulate geological resource exploration, and regional economic development (see Atlin TGI Part I). Geological maps produced as part of the project portray base...

سابقه و هدف: جنگل­ های زاگرس به ­عنوان یکی از بوم ­سازگان­ جنگلی مهم ایران پوشش­ گیاهی (درختان، درختچه ­ها گونه­ علفی) متنوعی برخوردار می­ باشد. شناسایی آگاهی دقیق نقش ­شناختی آنها در این ­سازگان تواند حفاظت منابع طبیعی توسعه پایدار کمک شایانی نماید. به‌منظور مطالعه تنوع گونه‌ای گیاهان چوبی ذخیره کربن خاک رابطه با عوامل فیزیوگرافیک (جهت، شیب ارتفاع سطح دریا)، رویشگاه کیکم (var. cinerascens Acer...

Insulin resistance (IR) evaluation is a fundamental goal in clinical Background: and epidemiological research. However, the most widely used methods are difficult to apply to populations with low incomes. The triglyceride-glucose index (TGI) emerges as an alternative to use in daily clinical practice. Therefore the objective of this study was to determine an optimal cutoff point for the TGI in ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate thermal response, hydration and performance over a 6-day, 142-km trail running race in tropical conditions. 9 participants competed in the 2011 Gwadarun (30°C±2.4 °C and 82±4% RH). Data were collected on days 1, 4 and 6. Gastrointestinal temperature (Tgi) and heart rate (HR) were measured using portable telemetry units, whereas blood samples were col...

Leaf chlorophyll content is an important variable for agricultural remote sensing because of its close relationship to leaf nitrogen content. The triangular greenness index (TGI) was developed based on the area of a triangle surrounding the spectral features of chlorophyll with points at (670 nm, R670), (550 nm, R550), and (480 nm, R480), where R is the spectral reflectance at wavelengths of 67...

To simulate clinical trials to assess overall survival (OS) benefit of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy in selected patients with gastric cancer (GC), a modeling framework linking OS with tumor growth inhibition (TGI) metrics and baseline patient characteristics was developed. Various TGI metrics were estimated using TGI models and data from two phase III studies comparing bevacizum...

47cc-2-2-043 Introduction Tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) is an adjunctive ventilatory technique that delivers fresh gas into the trachea either continuosly or only during a specific segment of the respiratory cycle (phasic flow) [1-4]. Two mechanisms are responsible for improving the efficacy of conventional tidal breaths during TGI [5-7]. First, fresh gas introduced by the catheter during exp...

Mathematical models of tumor size (TS) dynamics and tumor growth inhibition (TGI) need to place more emphasis on resistance development, given its relevant implications for clinical outcomes. A deeper understanding of the underlying processes, and effective data integration at different complexity levels, can foster the incorporation of new mechanistic aspects into modeling approaches, improvin...
