dumping (Walker et al., 1962; Howe, 1964; Silver et al., 1965; Zeitlin and Smith, 1966). In two patients raised free plasma kinins were not found during a dumping attack. This is probably due to loss of activity during collection of samples owing to the extremely short half-life of bradykinin in vivo (15 seconds). Our results support the findings of Zeitlin and Smith (1966) and provide further ...

Anti-dumping rules are flexible and open to political bias. This is a concern repeated all over the world. All jurisdictions tailor their anti-dumping laws to WTO rules, but this still leaves a significant amount of discretion as to how decisions are made. In the EU, the lack of transparency in anti-dumping decision making further heightens suspicions that it is not always driven by sound econo...

scientific journals provide a platform for reviewing, publishing and dissemination of the results of new scientific findings and discoveries and cannot be replaced by any other platform. given the important role of scientific journals in dissemination of information, management of such journals takes a high priority. the accurate management of scientific journals takes place only when the diffe...

The dumping of dredged sediments represents a major stressor for coastal ecosystems. The impact on the ecosystem function is determined by its complexity not easy to assess. In the present study, we evaluated the potential of bacterial community analyses to act as ecological indicators in environmental monitoring programmes. We investigated the functional structure of bacterial communities, app...

In this study, concentrations of dioxins and related compounds (DRCs)--such as polychlorinated dibenzo- p-dioxins, polychlorinated dibenzofurans, and coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls--were found in human breast milk from women living near dumping sites of municipal waste and reference sites in India, Cambodia, Vietnam, and the Philippines during 1999 to 2000. DRCs were detected in all human b...

A reaction indistinguishable from the early dumping syndrome was induced in four of nine normal volunteers by intraduodenal instillation of a hypertonic glucose meal. Tachycardia and marked peripheral vasodilatation were demonstrated in 'dumpers' by Doppler ultrasound measurements of the arterial blood flow signal. The dumping reaction was not detectably altered by the addition of guar to the m...
