The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of time of first postpartum ovulation after calving on uterine involution in dairy cows with and without uterine puerperal disease. Transvaginal follicular puncture (FP) of follicles >6 mm suppressed ovulation and development of a CL until Day 42 after calving. Fifty-three lactating Holstein Friesian cows (3.4 ± 1.2 years old, parity 2.5...

Input-output budgets for dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) are summarized for 24 small watersheds at 15 locations in the northeastern United States. The study watersheds are completely forested, free of recent physical disturbances, and span a geographical region bounded by West Virginia on the south and west, and Maine on the north and east. Total N budgets are not presented; however, fluxes ...

Clear-cutting is today the primary driver of largescale forest disturbance in boreal regions of Fennoscandia. Among the major environmental concerns of this practice for surface waters is the increased mobilization of nutrients, such as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) into streams. But while DIN loading to first-order streams following forest harvest has been previously described, the downst...

Ulcerative dermatitis (UD) is common in captive sea turtles and manifests as skin erosions and ulcers associated with gram-negative bacteria. This study compared clinically healthy and UD-affected captive turtles by evaluating hematology, histopathology, immunoglobulin levels, and delayed-type hypersensitivity assay. Turtles with UD had significantly lower weight, reduced delayed-type hypersens...

Aims of study: Diabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD), a collective description of clinical symptoms including decreased sensation, increased capacity, poor emptying, and also detrusor overactivity, is among the most common and costly complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). It is estimated that DBD occurs in approximately 87% of individuals diagnosed with DM, and substantially affects quality of l...

Differential interaction nets (DIN) have been introduced by Thomas Ehrhard and Laurent Regnier as an extension of linear logic proof-nets. We prove that DIN enjoy an internal separation property: given two different normal nets, there exists a dual net separating them, in analogy with Böhm’s theorem for the λ-calculus. Our result implies in particular the faithfulness of every non-trivial denot...

This study deals with the cumulative pitch variations in DIN male contacts. A connector provides a separable interface between two subsystems of an electronic system. DIN is a series of connector which stands for Deutsch Institut fur Normung. They are used for applications like switching, transmission, radio base stations, control units and machines. Connector manufacturing involves stamping, m...

The effect of the din distribution on the error probability of the detection test is studied here that when a class of randomly rotated spherical Ridges is used. The detection test is performed by a focused correlation detector, and the spherical codes studied here form a randomized orthogonal constellation. The colluders create a din-free forgery by uniform averaging of their individual copies...

DNA damage-inducible (din) genes in Bacillus subtilis are coordinately regulated and together compose a global regulatory network that has been termed the SOS-like or SOB regulon. To elucidate the mechanisms of SOB regulation, operator/promoter regions from three din loci (dinA, dinB, and dinC) of B. subtilis were cloned. Operon fusions constructed with these cloned din promoter regions rendere...

BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate temperament and character correlates of panic disorder (PD) comorbidity in euthymic patients with bipolar disorder (BD) or unipolar depression (UD). METHODS Temperament and character were assessed using the Temperament and Character Inventory Revised (TCI-R) in 181 patients (70 patients with BD-I, 51 patients with BD-II and 60 with UD) in a euthymic ...
