OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the predictors of adverse events in pregnant women with cardiomyopathy (CDM) and CDM subtypes at the time of delivery. BACKGROUND Investigation of patients' characteristics and outcomes in women with CDM at the time of delivery has been limited. METHODS The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample was screened for ...

Of 30 bipolar, BiCMOS, and CMOS products socketed CDM classified, 27 had ≥500V withstand voltages and experienced no real-world CDM fallout. Two of three products with <500V withstand voltages had numerous manufacturing-induced CDM failures until they were analyzed and redesigned. Analysis of these two products showed that both socketed and non-socketed CDM testing replicated the initial dielec...

Abstract— In this paper, we propose the use of verticalBell Labs layered space-time (V-BLAST) detection for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing code division multiplexing (OFDM-CDM) systems. Considering the properties of the VBLAST detection as well as the frequency diversity from CDM, we propose a new CDM transform matrix to improve the performance of V-BLAST detection of OFDM-CDM signa...

The relationship between the activity and the chemical structure of cadeguomycin (CDM, 7-carboxy-7-deazaguanosine) was studied with six analogs of CDM. Both activities of CDM, enhancing the incorporation of [3H]thymidine in K562 cells and potentiating the cytotoxicity of cytosine arabinoside for K562 cells, were significantly augmented by the replacement of the 7-carboxyl group with cyano (CDM-...

In the present study, CDM host countries are classified according to their attractiveness for CDM non-sink projects. A cluster analysis is conducted based on three different factors determining host country attractiveness (mitigation potential, institutional CDM capacity and general investment climate) in order to elaborate a CDM host country classification. The results suggest that only a smal...

این پژوهش با الهام گرفتن از نتایج یک طرح مطالعاتی کاربردی، رویکرد سلسله­‌مراتبی جهت پیگیری فرایند توسعه تأمین‌کنندگان و حمایت تصمیمات موجود در هر مراحل آن ارائه‌ می‌کند. ابتدا، زمینه‌های تأمین نیازمند سپس واجد شرایط هریک زمینه‌ها به کمک تصمیم‌گیری چندشاخصه بهترین-بدترین مشخص می‌گردند. معیارهای شناسایی نیز مرور مطالعات پیشین بهره‌گیری نظرات خبرگان حوزه‌ی خرید استخراج‌شده‌اند. درنهایت، مدل ریاضی ...

Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) can protect cardiomyocytes against anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy (AIC) through paracrine effects. Nonetheless the paracrine effects of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs (iPSC-MSCs) on AIC are poorly understood. In vitro studies reveal that doxorubicin (Dox)-induced reactive oxidative stress (ROS) generation an...

One of the dual objectives of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol is to promote sustainable development in the host countries. With different CDM indicators for 58 CDM host countries over 2005-10, this paper empirically assesses whether CDM project development fulfils this objective of sustainable development. Using a unique dynamic panel data method based on long-differ...

OBJECTIVES The immunoadjuvant potential of cross-linked dextran microspheres (CDM) as absorption enhancer and Quillaja saponins (QS) as immunomodulator adjuvant was evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS CDM loaded or tetanus-mixed toxoid (TT) or Quillaja saponin (QS) were nasally administered to rabbits in dry powder form, three times in 2 weeks interval and serum IgG and nasal lavage sIgA titers ...
