Analysis of the hot H2 16O spectrum, presented by Polyansky et al. (1996, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 176, 305-315), is extended to higher vibrational states. Three hundred thirty mainly strong lines are assigned to pure rotational transitions in the (100), (001), and (020) vibrational states. These lines, which involve significantly higher rotational energy levels than were known previously, are assign...

We report results of a VSOP (VLBI Space Observatory Programme) observation of a high redshift quasar PKS2215+020 (z = 3.57). The ∼1 milliarcsecond resolution image of the quasar reveals a prominent ‘core-jet’ structure on linear scales from 5h to 300h pc (H◦ = 100 h kms Mpc). The brightness temperatures and sizes of bright features identified in the jet are consistent with emission from relativ...

Abstract Aim This study evaluates the versatility and performance of a novel adhesive for atraumatic hernia mesh fixation. The TISSIUM is biodegradable biocompatible viscous liquid that can be precisely applied to different tissue mesh.1 Once in place, surgeon utilizes light probe polymerize adhesive, creating flexible elastomeric connection provides strong, durable Materials Methods when used ...

Stroke remains the number one cause of disability in the adult population. Despite scientific progress in our understanding of stroke pathology, only one treatment (tissue plasminogen activator or tPA) is able to afford benefits but to less than 3% of ischemic stroke patients. The development of experimental dietary supplement therapeutics designed to stimulate endogenous mechanisms that confer...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of tumor tissue and plasma miR-146a/b expressions with the clinicopathological properties and overall survival (OS) in surgical patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (ICC).Eighty-seven patients with ICC were enrolled. Tumor tissue and plasma sample were collected and miR-146a/b expressions were assessed by quantitative polyme...
