Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with strong Th17-skewed immune phenotype. It has been generally accepted that regulatory T cells in the lesional psoriasis have functional impairment. However, circulating Cutaneous Leukocyte Associated antigen(CLA)+ cell which potentially migrated out from not yet explored well so far especially Asians. Herein, to investigate whether CLA+regulat...

We tested the hypothesis that the proportion of normal results in tests ordered by a physician correlates directly with the proportion of tests that are disapproved by a utilization review audit for inappropriate test use. Auditors reviewed 3497 charts for 13 067 repeated determinations of 10 diagnostic tests ordered by 81 medical residents to determine if test use had been appropriate, accordi...

Details are given of the v ( S O ) ~ ~ ~ ~ stretching (dmso = dimethyl sulphoxide), v,(SO,), v,(SO,), and v,(SO,) regions of the Raman spectra of SO,-dmso mixtures at 293 K and sub-ambient temperatures. Analysis of the v( SO)dmso region, which contains at least seven component bands, provides evidence of several component species. Bands at 1 067,l 057, and 1 044 cm-l are due to monomers and ass...

One of the early concepts of space syntax, from the Social Logic of Space, is architecture seen as an interface. This is sometimes interpreted as on one hand a singular transition between ‘private’ and ‘public’, or more gradually as a transition from ‘public’ urban space towards more and more private space on the other. Methodologically, the latter tends to consist of analyses that incorporate ...
