Background: Information on the incidence and mortality of liver cancer can be useful for health programs and research activities, and with regard to the possible role of the HDI and liver cancer, this study aimed to investigate incidence and mortality from the cancer and their relationship with the indicator and its components in 2012 in world. Methods: In this ecologic study, data were extract...

As early as 1927, legislation in the United States governing the packaging of lyeand acidcontaining products mandated that warning labels be placed on these products. In response to the recognition that caustic exposures were more frequent in children, the Federal Hazardous Substances Act and Poison Prevention Packaging Act were passed in 1970; these acts mandated that all caustics with a conce...

S106 is a bipolar nebula illuminated and excited by a central star called S106 IR. Depending on its distance (literature values range from 500 pc to 5.7 kpc) this star is of late O to early B spectral type. There is evidence that S106 is physically associated with the molecular cloud complex of Cygnus X. The bipolar nebula is the dominant feature in an embedded cluster of young stars forming in...

UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains, 1) recruits DNMT1 to hemimethylated DNA during replication and is essential for maintaining DNA methylation. uhrf1 mutant zebrafish have global DNA hypomethylation and display embryonic defects, including a small liver, and theydie as larvae.Wemake the surprising finding that, despite their reduced organ size, uhrf1mutants express h...

a simple and sensitive extractive- spectrophotometric method for thedeterrnination of trace amounts of vanadium(v) is reported. the method is based on the quantitative extraction of the anion complex of v(v) with 4-(2-pyridy1azo)-resorcinol with tetrabutylammonium perchlorate into chloroform, followed by spectrophotometric measurements at 554 nm. beer's law is obeyed over the concentration...
