Introduction: The lack of adequate blood perfusion through different organs of the body, including the brain and skull, can be caused by any type of circulation abnormality. The purpose of this study is to compare cephalometric indices between infants under the age of 12 months who have congenital heart disease (CHD) and normal infants. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was ca...

Seminal plasma ingredients are important for maintenance of sperm viability. This study focuses on the effect of boar seminal plasma exosomes on sperm function during long-term liquid storage. Boar seminal plasma exosomes had typical nano-structure morphology as measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and molecular markers such as AWN, CD9 and CD63 by western blot analysis. The effect on...

This paper focuses on the automatic extraction of Arabic Named Entities (NEs) from the Arabic Wikipedia (AWP), their automatic attachment to Arabic WordNet (AWN) and their automatic link to Princeton's English WordNet (PWN). We briefly report on the current status of AWN, focusing on its rather limited NE coverage. Our proposal of automatic extension is then presented, applied and evaluated. Ke...

AWN is a process algebra developed for modelling and analysing protocols for Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) and Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) [2, §4]. AWN models comprise five distinct layers: sequential processes, local parallel compositions, nodes, partial networks, and complete networks. This development mechanises the original operational semantics of AWN and introduces a variant ‘open’ op...

Grass awns are a common cause of foreign body disease in animals, but little is known about their presence in the lower urinary tract. The ultrasonographic features of grass awns in vivo and in vitro have been described in detail. The purpose of this report is to describe the clinical and sonographic features of grass awns in the urinary bladder of dogs and cats. Three male Yorkshire terriers (...

BACKGROUND Case-control studies have found increased head growth during the first year of life in children with autism spectrum disorder. Length and weight have not been as extensively studied, and there are few studies of population-based samples. METHODS The study was conducted in a sample of 106,082 children from the population-based Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort. The children were bor...

Awns are the important structures of inflorescence in many crops that belong to Poaceae family. In addition, they actively participate photosynthesis, transpiration, seed dispersal, and self-planting. The Elymus nutans Griseb. is an important, self-pollinated, allohexaploid (2n = 6x 42) perennial native forage grass Qinghai-Tibet Plateau shows variation awns length. However, changes anatomical ...
