To evaluate the effectiveness and safety in mild to moderate insomnia intervened by Chinese Medicine in the integrated program. Methods: Patients(18 to 56 years old) from the Five National Center, who were with mild to moderate insomnia, were randomly divided into two groups according to the central, ...
In distributed e-learning paradigm, learning pedagogy demands different content retrieval methodologies after reaching certain boundary of learning. Hence, the learners are expected, to retrieve the contents and they need to improvise at substantially faster rate. The overall learning process converges ...
Assessment of HER2, gene located on the centromere of chromosome 17, provides important information about breast samples since it can be a sign of a potential breast cancer. One of the most widely used methods for measuring HER2 gene copies is the evaluation of FISH images. Analysis involves observing ...
The objective of this study was to prepare PLGA nanoparticles of ethanolic extract of Strawberry (Nano-STE) that will improve the bioavailability and sustained release of phytomedicines and to prolong the neuroprotective effect of the phytodrug. The ethanolic fruit extract of Strawberry (STE) was encapsulated ...
This research adopts stratified sampling with random sampling methods and uses household survey of one-to-one interview. It makes the large-scale continuous tracking study to estimate the income of 913 staff families which in state-owned forest zone of Heilongjiang Province and contrast the difference ...
When a young Patric Blanc hung plants from his bedroom wall and dangled their roots into his fish tank, he probably didn't realise the impact his 'vertical gardens' would have on the world. Fifty years on, the Centre national de la Recherche Scientifique botanist and Laureate of the French academy of ...
Evolutionary innovation relies partially on changes in gene regulation. While a growing body of evidence demonstrates that such innovation is generated by functional changes or translocation of regulatory elements via mobile genetic elements, the de novo generation of enhancers from non-regulatory/non-mobile ...
Aims To determine the extent of HER2 homogeneity/heterogeneity in primary versus metastatic gastric carcinoma (GC). Materials and results The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status in primary and metastatic lesions was evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in-situ ...
Introduction Substantial evidence describes the protective effects of marine-derived omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on cardiovascular diseases as well as many other conditions. Numerous fatty acid preparations are marketed for supplementing the Western diet, which is low in n-3 fats. ...
The cystine-knot motif, made up of three intertwined disulfide bridges, is a unique feature of several toxins, cyclotides and growth factors, and occurs in a variety of species, including fungi, insects, molluscs and mammals. Growth factor molecules containing the cystine-knot motif serve as ligands ...
The purpose of the paper is to develop a novel simulation system for ship propulsion plant. The nonlinear mathematical model of main propulsion system of a large container ship is established, consisting of the large low speed two-stroke diesel engine, shaft, fixed pitch propeller and ship hull dynamics. ...
Three underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) were used over a five day period to inspect critical infrastructure and to assist with victim search and recovery at six sites in the Iwate Prefecture following the Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami. Unmanned marine vehicles have been used since 2004 for ...
Defence Research and Development Canada has recently wrapped up a 4-year project to demonstrate an integrated system for force protection in harbours, the Canadian Underwater Protection System (CUwPS). The intention of the Maritime Force Protection Technology Demonstration Project was to provide advice ...
Background The Symbiodinium community associated with scleractinian corals is widely considered to be shaped by seawater temperature, as the coral's upper temperature tolerance is largely contingent on the Symbiodinium types harboured. Few studies have challenged this paradigm as knowledge of other ...
Rising CO2 concentrations and water temperatures this century are likely to have transformative effects on many coastal marine organisms. Here, we compared the responses of two life history stages (larval, juvenile) of three species of calcifying bivalves (Mercenaria mercenaria, Crassostrea virginica, ...
Cyanobacterial blooms and hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs) usually occur in summer, constituting a sanitary and environmental problem in Salto Grande Dam, Argentina. Water sports and recreational activities take place in summer in this lake. We reported an acute case of cyanobacterial poisoning in Salto ...
This study presents a cooperative underwater box-pushing scenario, in which three autonomous robotic fish that sense, plan and act on its own move an elongated box from some initial location to a goal location. With the onboard monocular camera, the robotic fish can estimate the pose of the object in ...
Many carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their metabolites can bind covalently to DNA. Carcinogen-DNA adducts may lead to mutations in critical genes, eventually leading to cancer. In this study we report that fish oil (FO) blocks the formation of DNA adducts by detoxification of ...
Abstract A new, small-diameter ultrasonic scanning logging tool has been field tested and commercially deployed for simultaneous cement-sheath and casing evaluation. The tool is designed for use in 9-5/8-in„ heavy-weight casing down to 4-1/2-in. casing. Enhancements in downhole electronics, computing ...
Abstract Description There is very limited information available on the deep water biodiversity offshore Nigeria. Detailed information on seabed communities is vital for effective environmental management of offshore drilling disturbance but collection of environmental data usually require a dedicated ...
