Aberrant smooth muscle cells (SMCs) play important roles in the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Although the molecular mechanism of AAA formation has been investigated, there is a lack of understanding concerning the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in AAA, which the current study aimed to address. Firstly, miRNA array analysis was performed in order to compare the miRNA profiles in a m...

Induction motors (IMs) are widely used in many industrial applications due to their robustness, low cost, simplicity and relative good efficiency. One of the major considerations for IMs is their speed control. PI (proportional-integrator) controllers are usually used as speed controller. Adjusting the gain of PI controller is time-consuming which needs thorough considerations. Hence, fuzzy con...

Type II radio bursts are known to be the signatures of coronal shocks. In this paper we examine relationship between 129 type in frequency range 35 – 450 MHz observed at Culgooora observatory during May 2002 October 2015 and associated CMEs. We apply Newkirk (1961) density model determine formation height IIs. find that 109/129 cases, were preceded/ succeeded by The CME events which is above bu...

Following domestication, man selected the horse primarily for the purpose of transportation rather than consumption; this selective strategy created divergent traits for locomotion. At intermediate speeds, beyond the flat walk, the horse can perform a range of diagonal and lateral 2-beat or 4-beat gait patterns. The Tennessee Walking Horse (TWH) is the only U.S. breed able to perform an even-ti...

BACKGROUND New information from various clinical settings suggests that tight blood pressure control may not reduce mortality and may be associated with more side effects. METHODS We performed cross-sectional multivariable ordered logistic regression to examine the association between predialysis blood pressure and the short physical performance battery (SPPB) in a cohort of 749 prevalent hem...

Smoke pollution from landscape fires is a major health problem, but it difficult to predict the impact of any particular fire. For example, smoke plumes can be mapped using remote sensing, we do not know how distributed in air-column. Prescribed burning involves deliberate introduction human communities amount, composition, and distribution may different wildfires. We examined whether produced ...
