This paper presents an effective quasi one-dimensional (1-D) computational simulation methodology and some important results for steady annular/stratified (or film wise) internal condensing flows of pure vapor. Though the approach is strictly valid for smooth, laminar vapor/laminar condensate flows, it is also approximately valid for laminar condensate and turbulent vapor which are laminar in t...

A novel pretargeted SPECT imaging strategy based on the HaloTag enzyme has been evaluated for the first time in a living system. To determine the efficacy of this approach, two clinically relevant cancer biomarkers, HER2 and TAG-72, were selected to represent models of internalizing and noninternalizing antigens, respectively. In MDA-MB-231/H2N (HER2-expressing) and LS174T (TAG-72-expressing) x...

Data relating to the incidence of anencephalus for the 12-year period 1961-72 were abstracted from the Statistical Reviews of the Registrar General for Scotland. It was shown that considerable geographical variation is still apparent with the highlands having, in general, the lower incidences. In comparison with the earlier study of Edwards (1958), there were some changes: the incidence in the ...

This study was conducted to know the maternal risk factors and outcome of low birth weight babies in Paediatric Department of a tertiary care teaching hospital in Orissa. Two hundred cases of low birth weight babies irrespective of gestational age, without any congenital anomalies were included, after informed consent. Detailed history regarding maternal risk factors were taken and clinical exa...

We present the linear type theory ?&> as the formal basis for LLF, a conservative extension of the logical framework LF. LLF combines the expressive power of dependent types with linear logic to permit the natural and concise representation of a whole new class of deductive systems, namely those dealing with state. As an example we encode a version of Mini-ML with mutable references including i...

background : colorectal cancer is the second cause of mortality in developed countries. the p53gene and some of it's polymorphisms are among the causes for cancer development.the purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the p53 codon 72 polymorphism in colorectal adenocarcinoma specimens compared with controls. materials and methods : we performed a case-control study among...
