BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To determine the effect of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) on children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia undergoing remission-induction chemotherapy. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN We included 127 paediatric patients who were diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and undergoing remission- induction chemotherapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou Unive...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this clinical trial was to compare the glucose usage of two oral nutritional supplement (ONS) products and to assess whether a diabetes-specific formulation provides improved glucose stabilization and management compared with a standard formula. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 12 subjects with type 2 diabetes (7 males and 5 females) completed a randomized, cros...

In this paper we continue development of formal theory of a special class offuzzy logics, called EQ-logics. Unlike fuzzy logics being extensions of theMTL-logic in which the basic connective is implication, the basic connective inEQ-logics is equivalence. Therefore, a new algebra of truth values calledEQ-algebra was developed. This is a lower semilattice with top element endowed with two binary...

background: the double heterozygous state of α/β thalassemia may alter the hematological indices and modify the phonotype. in addion, definite characterizaon of co-inheritance of α- and β-thalassemia heterozygous carriers may change the process of genec counseling. materials and methods: an iranian couple with low hematological indices was analyzed for α-globin gene deleons using mulplex g...

The Object Naming Service (ONS) is a central lookup service of the EPCglobal Network. Its main function is the address retrieval of manufacturer information services for a given Electronic Product Code (EPC) identifier. This allows dynamic and globally distributed information sharing for items equipped with RFID tags compatible to EPCglobal standards. However, unlike in the DNS system, the ONS ...

Using anterograde tracing with HRP and antibodies (ABs) against neurofilaments, we show that regrowth of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons in the lizard Gallotia galloti commences only 2 months after optic nerve transection (ONS) and continues over at least 9 months. This is unusually long when compared to RGC axon regeneration in fish or amphibians. Following ONS, lizard RGCs up-regulate the i...

Despite a marked increase in the prescription of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) in the community (Department of Health, 1991-7), there is still uncertainty about the value of their use in patients with different diseases. To answer questions about the effects on ONS on body weight and structure, spontaneous food intake and body function, a critical systematic review was undertaken (Stratton...

Single-stranded oligonucleotides (ON) comprise a promising therapeutic platform that enables selective modulation of currently undruggable targets. The development of novel ON drug candidates has demonstrated excellent efficacy, but in certain cases also some safety liabilities were reported. Among them are events of thrombocytopenia, which have recently been evident in late stage trials with O...
