background given the rapid pace of changes in community health needs and the mission of healthcare organizations to provide and promote the community’s health, the growing need to increase health system responsiveness to people as a key element of observance and fulfillment of justice is felt more than ever. results confirmatory factor analysis, based on the results of the key informant survey ...

asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway with extensive airway remodeling. the ethical issues associated with the studies in asthmatic patients, required development of animal model of asthma. animal models of asthma can provide valuable information on several features of asthma pathogenesis and treatment. although these models cannot carry out all clinical features, they are valu...

background: asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways. the available treatment options have major limitations owing to low efficacy, associated adverse events and compliance issues. therefore, the health burden of bronchial asthma is increasing globally at an alarming rate, providing a strong impetus for the development of new therapeutics. myrica sapida is known traditionally in...

Clinical staging of accidental hypothermia is used to guide out-of-hospital treatment and transport decisions. Most clinical systems utilize core temperature, by measurement or estimation, stage hypothermia, despite the challenge obtaining accurate field measurements. Recent studies have demonstrated that estimation temperature imprecise.We propose a revision original Swiss Staging system. The ...

this paper presents a mathematical model that could assist in measuring, monitoring and controlling tem-perature variation in cold and ‘red-hot’ metal working conditions of machining. a numerical analysis tech-nique of the temperature distribution, based on the theory of complex applied potential, was carried out using the principles of relationship analysis between the paths of heat supply in ...

Arabidopsis adapts to elevated temperature by promoting stem elongation and hyponastic growth through a temperature-responsive transcription factor PIF4. Here we show that the evening-expressed clock component TOC1 interacts with and inactivates PIF4, thereby suppressing thermoresponsive growth in the evening. We find that the expression of PIF4 target genes show circadian rhythms of thermosens...

Exposure to organic dust in a swine house causes acute airway inflammation and increased bronchial responsiveness to methacholine in healthy subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether an inhaled glucocorticoid, fluticasone propionate, alters the acute airway responses induced by exposure in a swine barn. In 15 healthy subjects, analysis of nasal lavage fluids, serum samples and ...
