background and aims: rubella is a contagious viral disease mostly with mild clinical symptoms and often remains undiagnosed. rubella infection may adversely affect pregnancy, especially in the first trimester and this mother to child transmission can cause congenital rubella and may be lead to permanent disability and mortality in children. effective rubella vaccine should be prepared using sui...

Most countries have automatic rules in their tax-and-transfer systems that are intended, at least partly, to stabilize economic fluctuations. We measure how effective these automatic stabilizers are in a modern business-cycle model. We consider the effect of the stabilizers on aggregate demand, on the incentives to work and save, and on the distribution of income across households, all of which...

The elbow joint is a complex structure that provides an important function as the mechanical link in the upper extremity between the hand, wrist and the shoulder. The elbow's functions include positioning the hand in space for fine movements, powerful grasping and serving as a fulcrum for the forearm. Loss of elbow function can severely affect activities of daily living. It is important to reco...

We have successfully developed curcumin nanosuspension intended for oral delivery. The main purpose is to improve bioavailability through enhancing its solubility. The nanoparticles were stabilized using various stabilizers, including polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC), d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS), and sodium...

© L p Abstract: This paper investigates the relationship between the magnitude of automatic stabilizers in the tax and transfer systems of 19 EU countries and the US, and discretionary fiscal stimulus packages passed by these countries during the recent economic crisis. In particular, we ask whether countries with larger automatic stabilizers have enacted smaller discretionary fiscal stimulus p...

Regularization o ers a powerful framework for signal recon struction by enforcing weak constraints through the use of stabilizers Stabilizers are functionals measuring the degree of smoothness of a sur face The nature of those functionals constrains the properties of the reconstructed signal In this paper we rst analyze the invariance of stabilizers with respect to size transformation and their...

Actas Esp Psiquiatr 2011;39(5):312-30 A detailed review was published in 2004 on the therapeutic properties of the medications used in the treatment of bipolar disorders (Tamayo, JM et al. Actas Esp Psiquiatr 2004;32(Supl. 1):3-17). At the time it could be concluded that although mood stabilizers (euthymics) share some action mechanisms, they are also significantly different from each other wit...

Let G be a countable discrete group. Call two subgroups H1 and H2 of G commensurable if H1 ∩H2 has finite index in both H1 and H2. We say that an action of G on a discrete set X has noncommensurable stabilizers if the stabilizers of any two distinct points of X are not commensurable. We prove in this paper that the action of the mapping class group on the complex of curves has noncommensurable ...

We report the use of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers as stabilizers to synthesize ultrathin Au nanowires (NWs) with a diameter of 1.3 nm via a hydrothermal approach. The formation of uniform Au NWs was optimized by varying the Au/Ag salt molar ratio, dendrimer stabilizers, and reaction solvent, temperature, and time. A novel growth mechanism involving a synergic facet-dependent deposition/reduction...

The aim of pharmacotherapy for alcoholism is to increase sustained abstinence during and after treatment and to reduce relapse. There is accumulating, but not convincing, evidence showing the effects of mood stabilizers on alcohol dependence. Moreover, several studies suggest that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may be directly or indirectly associated with alcohol dependence, and mood...
