BACKGROUND Clozapine is the treatment of choice in drug-resistant schizophrenia. Lamotrigine is a mood stabiliser recommended as combined treatment strategy in clozapine-resistant patients. There are cases of late-onset agranulocytosis reported in literature. Some are associated with clozapine or lamotrigine, others with the combination of both. CASE REPORT The article presents a case of rapi...

We consider four useful measures of the complexity of a term: themaximumdepth (usually called the depth), the minimum depth, the variable count, and the operation count. For each of these, we produce a formula for the complexity of the composition Sn m(s,t1, . . . , tn) in terms of the complexity of the inputs s, t1, . . . , tn. As a corollary, we also obtain formulas for the complexity of σ̂ [t...

the mediterranean flour moth, ephestia kuehniella zeller, is one of the major pests in stored products worldwide. several problems assossiated with the use of conventional insecticides have strongly demonstrated the need for applying alternative safe compounds such as insect growth regulators (igrs). in the present study, growth regulating activity and hematological effects of pyriproxifen and ...

background because of varying reports, there is still need to investigate the impact of wrestling on hematological indices. objectives we investigated differences in the basic hematological indices in wrestlers compared to sedentary controls. patients and methods the blood samples containing anticoagulant were collected from 12 male elite wrestlers (age = 24 ± 1.2 years, weight = 76 ± 5 kg) wit...

MOTIVATION Next-generation (NextGen) sequencing is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative for transcriptional profiling, as is the case for micro RNAs (miRNA) profiling and classification. miRNAs are a new class of molecules that are regulated in response to differentiation, tumorigenesis or infection. Our primary motivating application is to identify different viral infections based o...

Can altmetric data be validly used for the measurement of societal impact? The current study seeks to answer this question with a comprehensive dataset (about 100,000 records) from very disparate sources (F1000, Altmetric, and an in-house database based on Web of Science). In the F1000 peer review system, experts attach particular tags to scientific papers which indicate whether a paper could b...

URL normalization is a process of transforming URL strings into canonical form. Through this process, duplicate URL representations for web pages can be reduced significantly. There are a number of normalization methods. In this paper, we describe four metrics for evaluating normalization methods. The reliability and consistency of a URL is also considered in our evaluation. With the metrics pr...

A 60-year-old male with locally invasive bladder carcinoma (pT4 pNo Mo) had a remarkable leukocytosis of 64,900/mm3 in the peripheral blood count without any findings of inflammatory disease. The grade 3 transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) measuring 60 by 58 mm involved the prostate, but radiological examinations including abdominal CT scan and isotopic bone scan failed to prove distant metastasi...
