Network Mobility (NEMO) supports the movement of some part of network that a group of Mobile Nodes (MNs) or Mobile Routers (MRs) moves together. To support NEMO, the NEMO basic support protocol (NBSP) was proposed [1]. In the nested mobile network, however, the NBSP exhibits pinball routing problem. The More nesting level, the problem becomes more serious. In this paper, we propose a new NEMO m...

  Underlying mechanisms which lead to brain edema following ischemic insults have been subjects of much debate. In this study, experimental cerebral infarction was produced in dogs by injecting one or two silicone rubber cylinders through the cervical internal carotid artery. Twenty-four hours after embolization, animals were killed and morphometrical analyses in the capillary endothelial ...

Background. @nbsp; Cerebrovascular complications (CVCs) have remained a major therapeutic and prognostic challenge associated with infective endocarditis, and definite risk factors have not been fully elucidated. This prospective study was designed to the evaluate the total incidence of CVC associated with infective endocarditis and major risk factors. Methods. @nbsp; During 2 study periods, fr...

BACKGROUND Pregabalin administration is occasionally abandoned due to adverse events such as somnolence, dizziness, unsteadiness, weight gain and edema. However, the exact causes of these differences in adverse events associated with pregabalin have not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE To identify factors predicting adverse events associated with pregabalin administered for neuropathic pain. METH...

  Neurogenic factors for the tonus of the cerebral blood vessels were investigated by systemic ad ministration of phentolamine (PH) and norepinephrine (NE) in lightly anesthetized and im mobilized dogs. Systemic blood pressure (SBP), intracranial pressure (ICP), and cerebral blood flow (CBF) were recorded simultaneously. Reversible blocking of the brain function was produced by a local inj...

The development of new immunosuppressants for renal transplantation is aimed not only at improving short-term outcomes, but also at achieving better safety, cardiovascular, and metabolic profiles and at decreasing nephrotoxicity. Belatacept is a fusion protein that inhibits T cell activation by binding to CD80 and CD86 antigens. Clinical trials, particularly the BENEFIT and BENEFIT-EX...

Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) or RTA type I is characterised by reduced H+ hydrogen ions and ammonium urinary excretion. In children affected by dRTA there is stunted growth, vomiting, constipation, loss of appetite, polydipsia and polyuria, nephrocalcinosis, weakness and muscle paralysis due to hypokalaemia. This work summarises progress made in dRTA genetic studies in populations ...
