Recent observations of the compact source embedded within the supernova remnant RCW 103 rekindle interest in the origin of this object’s emission. We contrast several models in which neutron-star cooling powers RCW 103. Specifically, either the presence of an accreted envelope or a sufficiently intense magnetic field can account for the X-ray emission from this object. Subject headings: stars: ...

In transgenic Mini rat, in which the expression of intrinsic growth hormone (GH) gene is suppressed by the antisense GH transgene are characterized by definite somatic growth retardation at puberty. Compared to age-matched wild-type Wister (non-Mini) rat, Mini rat showed low blood GH levels and GH cell depletion in the anterior pituitary (AP). The AP and periventricular hypothalamic nucleus (Pe...

Objective: To study the trends of socioeconomic inequalities and socioeconomic inequalities in self-perceived health in Spain between 1987 and 2001. Methods: We estimated the distribution of educational level and per capita provincial income, and the differences in lessthan-good self-perceived health by educational level and per capita provincial income in each period. Results: The percentage o...

Tthe structure of the title compound, C(15)H(24)O(5), has been redetermined at 103 (2) K, with much improved precision. The title compound was first reported by Luo, Yeh, Brossi, Flippen-Anderson & Gillardi [Helv. Chim. Acta (1984). 67, 1515-1522]. It is a derivative of the anti-malaria compound artemisinin and consists primarily of three substituted ring systems fused together. A cyclo-hexane ...

This paper reviews the issues associated with the reproductive system in the special population of female patients with end-stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis (PD). We summarize current knowledge concerning cancer screening tests, elective and urgent gynecologic procedures, and the issues of menstruation, contraception, pregnancy, and delivery in these patients. Finally, we present the ...

Chapter 12 presents the technical analysis of both expansionary/contractionary fiscal/monetary policy or their policy mix in the framework of Keynesian Theory. As you’ll see in Chapter 13, both Fiscal and Monetary Policies are used to target aggregate expenditure (called aggregate demand when price level is allowed to float)so as to change the equilibrium level of income.Remember, all the concl...

In this paper, we present an event detection system evaluated in 2015 TRECVID-SED. The system consists of two parts: automatic event detection (retrospective) and interactive event detection with human in the loop (interactive). For the retrospective part, an extended spatio-temporal features, MoSIFT, is extracted, and two types of temporal divisions (annotation partition and sliding window) ar...

The bactericidal activity of the novel beta-defensin hBD-3 against 28 species and 55 strains of gram-positive cocci and gram-negative fermentative and nonfermentative rods was tested. All strains proved to be highly or intermediately susceptible to hBD-3 (minimal bactericidal concentration [MBC], 1...
