it is suggested that cultivars of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) with regulated growth and development would be able to produce higher yields under water-limited conditions, which is crucial in future food production. water use efficiency (wue) is worthy of exploration in this regard. in this study, the effects of nitrogen fertilizer levels (0, 40 and 80 kg nha-1) and a plant growth retardant (ch...

BACKGROUND Eosinophils (EOS) have been associated with prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease, and those who showed plenitudinous coronary collateral circulation (CCC) often have good clinical consequences. However, the relationship between EOS and CCC was seldom reported. OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between EOS and CCC development in patients with unstable angina pe...

Angiogenesis in cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC) has rarely been investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the angiogenesis status of CCC and assess its relationship with angiogenic factors and clinicopathological characteristics. We examined 33 surgically resected CCC specimens. Tumor angiogenesis was assessed by microvessel density (MVD) using the anti-CD34 antibody, and the expre...

Calluses from seasonal mature shoots of Taxus globosa Schltdl. were subcultured in new medium containing 1 mg l -1 NAA, 0.5 mg l -1 2, 4-D, 0.025 mg l -1 BA. Calluses growing for 30 and 40 days in a medium added with 0.1-5.0 mg l -1 of chlorocholine chloride (CCC) were harvested for determination of taxol, phenolic compounds, and for polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity. The results showed that by...

Targeted approaches have revealed frequent epigenetic alterations in ovarian cancer, but the scope and relation of these changes to histologic subtype of disease is unclear. Genome-wide methylation and expression data for 14 clear cell carcinoma (CCC), 32 non-CCC and four corresponding normal cell lines were generated to determine how methylation profiles differ between cells of different histo...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of 3.0-T (1)H magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H MRS) in primary malignant hepatic tumors and to compare the effects of (1)H MRS on the diagnostic accuracy of liver-occupying lesions between junior and experienced radiologists. METHODS This study included 50 healthy volunteers and 40 consecutive patients (50 lesio...

A pair of triply charmed baryons, $\Omega_{ccc}\Omega_{ccc}$, is studied as an ideal dibaryon system by (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD with nearly physical light-quark masses and the relativistic heavy quark action charm mass. The spatial baryon-baryon correlation related to their scattering parameters on basis HAL method. $\Omega_{ccc}\Omega_{ccc}$ in ${^1S_0}$ channel taking into account Coulomb re...

BACKGROUND The pediatric complex chronic conditions (CCC) classification system, developed in 2000, requires revision to accommodate the International Classification of Disease 10th Revision (ICD-10). To update the CCC classification system, we incorporated ICD-9 diagnostic codes that had been either omitted or incorrectly specified in the original system, and then translated between ICD-9 and ...
