The effects of (A) H2-receptor antagonist (ranitidine) and enzyme preparation with bile constituents (Digestal forte), (B) Digestal forte and NaHCO3, (C) NaHCO3 alone, or (D) Digestal forte alone, on the increase of lipolysis, were studied in a double-blind, randomized, prospective, controlled cross-over study in 10 patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) and steatorrhea. All preparations were ...

BACKGROUND Obesity is often associated with fatty liver (FL). In most cases, bright liver at ultrasound (US) and increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) levels are considered the hallmarks of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Insulin resistance (IR) is the main link between obesity and NAFLD. The use of the Bioenterics intragastric balloon (BIB) i...

We propose an automatic system for racing bib number (RBN) recognition in natural image collections covering running races such as marathons. An RBN is typically a piece of durable paper or cardboard bearing a number as well as the event/sponsor logo. The RBN, usually pinned onto the competitor’s shirt, is used to identify the competitor among thousands of others during the race. Our system rec...

Given the increasing data collection capabilities and limited computing resources of future collider experiments, interest in using generative neural networks for fast simulation events is growing. In our previous study, Bounded Information Bottleneck Autoencoder (BIB-AE) architecture generating photon showers a high-granularity calorimeter showed high accuracy modeling various global different...

Sometimes the number of treatments to be compared is so large that a complete blocks experiment is impractical. This happens, for example, in some agronomic variety trials. A balanced incomplete block (BIB) design can be used in such a situation. In sensory evaluation trials loss of sensitivity can occur when the subjects are not be able to compare more than a few products with any certainty. A...

The purpose of this paper is to present a large number of highly A-efficient incomplete block designs for making comparisons among a set of test treatments and a control treatment. These designs are BTIB designs. A simple method of construction of BTIB designs, based on BIB designs is proposed. The advantage of this method is that one can use the vast literature on BIB designs to obtain a large...
