Although individuals spend the majority of their time indoors, most epidemiological studies estimate personal air pollution exposures based on outdoor levels. This almost certainly results in exposure misclassification as pollutant infiltration varies between homes. However, it is often not possible to collect detailed measures of infiltration for individual homes in large-scale epidemiological...

OBJECTIVE Despite substantial progress in recent years, graft survival beyond the first year still requires improvement. Since modern immunosuppression addresses mainly T-cell activation and proliferation, we studied macrophage infiltration into the allografts of 103 kidney transplant recipients during acute antibody and T-cell mediated rejection. Macrophage infiltration was correlated with bot...

We report a case of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with marked eosinophil infiltration which was identified postoperatively in the esophageal wall in areas not surrounding the SCC. The eosinophil infiltration was seen in the submucosa, muscle and adventitia, but not in the mucosa. Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a pathological condition defined as eosinophil infiltration within the ...

the determination of soil wetting front which caused by emitters is one of the important issues in designing trickle irrigation system. in this study, a mathematical model introduced in order to study the position of soil wetting front during irrigation by point emitters in homegenious soil in unsteady condition. the model solves governing differential equation of unsaturated flow in cylindrica...

abstract quantitative investigation of effects of range management treatments on different soil and water components in rangeland ecosystems has been rarely taken into account. in the present research, the kodir summer rangeland in the southeast nowshahr in mazandaran province was selected for studying effects of open grazing and exclosure managements on infiltration, runoff and microrelief. ex...

background: langerhans' cell histiocytosis (lch) is a reactive proliferative disease of unknown pathogenesis characterized by proliferation of langerhans cells. involvement of bone marrow (bm), liver and lung are related to high risk factors and poor survival. the aim of this report is to highlight the clinical and haematological findings of 5 cases of lch with bm infiltration which may help to...

conclusions: these results indicate preventive effects of all natural adjuvants (especially g2) on pathological changes of the lung in sensitized guinea pigs. results: all pathological changes in s group including the eosinophil infiltration (scoring 3.28 ± 0.28), lymphocyte infiltration (2.82 ± 0.26), local epithelial necrosis (2.71 ± 0.47) and mucosal plug (2.75 ± 0.37) were significantly hig...

objectives: curcumin has anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. the objective of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of curcumin on functional disturbances, oxidative stress, and leukocyte infiltration induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion (i/r). materials and methods: animals were randomly divided into 9 groups. the groups with 24-h reperfusion consisted of sham-24h,...
