We have calculated diffractive dijet production in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) at lowQ2 and next-to-leading order (NLO) of perturbative QCD, including contributions from direct and resolved photons. We study how the cross section depends on the factorization scheme and scale Mγ at the virtual photon vertex for the occurance of factorization breaking. The strong Mγ -dependence, which is pres...

The objective of this study was to examine the experience of primary care center (PCC) users in Brazil, classified according to the quality of its structure, in relation to the aspects of accessibility, continuity, and acceptability. The source of information was the National Program to Improve Access and Quality of Primary Care in 2013-2014. A total of 109 919 interviewees in 24 055 PCCs compr...

1. A cation-exchange-chromatographic method for the determination of methylguanidine in serum is described. 2. In ten normal subjects, the mean serum methylguanidine concentration was 0·055 (SE 0'019) mg/ 100 ml and in ten uraemic patients it was 0·175 (SE 0,038) mg/ 100 ml. This difference is significant (P<0·02). 3. Recent claims that methylguanidine is present in uraemic serum in much higher...

We used INAA to determine the bulk compositions of 10 carbonaceous chondrites of uncertain classification. Most samples were analyzed in duplicates and the averaged results are given in Table 1 and shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Thin sections were examined microscopically. Mgand Cr-normalized abundance patterns show clear identifications for four specimens (Fig. 1. The others have nonindicative elemen...

Analogs of benztropine (BZT) bind to the dopamine (DA) transporter and inhibit DA uptake but often have behavioral effects that differ from those of cocaine and other DA-uptake inhibitors. To better understand these differences, we examined the relationship between locomotor-stimulant effects of cocaine, 1-{2-[bis-(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethyl}-4-(3-phenylpropyl)-piperazine (GBR 12909), and BZT...

Over the last few years, there has been a growing interest in DSGE modelling for predicting macroeconomic ‡uctuations and conducting quantitative policy analysis. Hybrid DSGE models have become popular for dealing with some of the DSGE misspeci…cations as they are able to solve the tradeo¤ between theoretical coherence and empirical …t. However, these models are still linear and they do not con...

Introduction / objectives Lupoid leishmaniasis (LCL) is a rare, face disfiguring, treatment resistant complication which has responded to the expensive photodynamic therapy in 5 patients in Iran [ F. Ghaffarifar et al. La Rev. de la Méditerranée orientale Vol. 12 No. 6, 2006]. Here we report 5 cases,photodocumented as best as we could under the actually disastrous conditions of Afghan Health Ca...
