BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Lowe syndrome is defined by congenital cataracts, mental retardation, and proximal tubulopathy and is due to mutations in OCRL. Recently, mutations in OCRL were found to underlie some patients with Dent disease, characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, and nephrocalcinosis. This phenotypic heterogeneity is poorly understood. DESIGN, SETTING,...

We argue that individual characteristics of managers can explain capital structure decisions like debt conservatism and pecking-order …nancing choices. Moreover, they can explain cross-sectional variation in these decisions despite identical …rm characteristics. We link the reluctance of (some) managers to access external capital markets, and in particular equity markets, to managerial overcon…...

This paper presents a fatigue life prediction model of post-impacted sheets considering the effects dent size and stress ratio. Low-velocity impact tests at four different energies were performed on specimens cut from 2524-T3 7075-T62 aluminium alloy. Following tests, static tensile uni-axial constant amplitude block spectrum experiments conducted. Numerical models generated to determine initia...

Objective(s): The aim of present research was to develop matrix-mini-tablets of lornoxicam filled in capsule for targeting early morning peak symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Materials and Methods:Matrix-mini-tablets of lornoxicam were prepared by direct compression method using microsomal enzyme dependent and pH-sensitive polymers which were further filled into an empty HPMC capsule. To asses...
