BACKGROUND Method-specific suicide trends varied across countries, and studies of the trends in different countries can contribute to the understanding of the epidemiology of suicide. The purpose of this study was to examine the changes in suicide trends by sex, age and method in the years 1971 to 2005 in Taiwan. METHODS Mortality data files of suicide and undetermined deaths for the years 19...

The design of new alerts, that is, collections of structural features observed to result in toxicological activity, can be a slow process and may require significant input from toxicology and chemistry experts. A method has therefore been developed to help automate alert identification by mining descriptions of activating structural features directly from toxicity data sets. The method is based...

The goal of the study was to determine influence transformational leadership on organizational support Jumping Stone Coffee and Grill employees. conducted at Grill. sample number is as many 50 people, with a saturated sampling method. Data collection done through google form. analysis technique performed simple linear regression. Based results found that partially has significant effect support...

Tolerance and dependence are two main problems that have limited morphine administration. There are several reports on the effect of some medicinal plants on morphine-induced tolerance and dependence. In this study we investigated the effect of Ferula persica (FP) extract on modulation of withdrawal syndrome sign (WSS). For this purpose, male Albino mice (25-30 g, n=30) were used. Morphine was ...

Conclusion Jumping of legged mobile robots has been a highly motivated research area. When a running robot encounters obstacles comparable to its body height, jumping is one of the most effective ways to overcome them. Also, if the robots can jump over gaps or crevices, the mobility of robots in a wild field would be enhanced drastically.The jumping performance is dependent on the terrain prope...

introduction: morphine withdrawal syndrome is mediated via several central and peripheral neurological pathways. in the present study we investigated the role of n-methyl-d aspartic acid (nmda) glutamate receptor on naloxone-induced withdrawal syndrome in morphine-conditioned mice. materials and methods: we designed two separate experiments. in experiment one, 30 male nmri mice were divided int...

Frogs are characterized by a morphology that has been suggested to be related to their unique jumping specialization. Yet, the functional demands associated with jumping and swimming may not be that different as suggested by studies with semi-aquatic frogs. Here, we explore whether features previously identified as indicative of good burst swimming performance also predict jumping performance i...
