Understanding variability in ethanol teratogenicity.
Ethanol is the most widely used psychoactive drug and, when used inappropriately, can have deleterious effects. The developing fetus is particularly sensitive to the deleterious effects of ethanol. Fetal alcohol exposure causes Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD), which have an estimated prevalence reaching 1% in North America (1). FASD are associated with defects to numerous organs, includ...
متن کاملTeratogenicity of ethanol in different chicken strains.
This study investigated the teratogenicity of ethanol in several different strains of chickens. The chick embryo provides a useful model for studying the fetal alcohol syndrome. Two broad classifications of chicks, each containing many strains, are commercially available for use: broilers and layers. Teratogenicity of ethanol in broilers and layers was studied by examining three different param...
متن کاملProbing supergravity models with indirect experimental signatures.
We explore the one-loop electroweak radiative corrections in the context of the traditional minimal SU(5) and the string-inspired SU(5) × U(1) supergravity models by calculating explicitly vacuum-polarization and vertexcorrection contributions to the ǫ1 and ǫb parameters. We also include in this analysis the constraint from b → sγ whose inclusive branching ratio B(b → sγ) has been actually meas...
متن کاملIndirect calorimetry can be used to measure cardiac output in septic patients?
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare two different cardiac output (CO) monitoring systems based on the thermodilution principle (Thermo-CO) and indirect calorimetry (Fick mixed-CO) in septic patients. METHODS Prospective study in septic patients admitted in an intensive care unit of a university hospital. Nineteen patients aged on average 45.4 +/- 21.5 years were enrolled in the study...
متن کاملA New Approach to Compare the Impact of Direct and Indirect Payments on Regional Macroeconomic Indices
Several procedures have been employed to examine the impacts of subsidies on different indices in an economy. This paper proposes a new approach enabling one to compare direct and indirect payments on households. To this end, the impact of government payments is examined on Gross Regional Products, Employment, Income Distribution and Inflation of Golestan Province in Iran through a Social Accou...
