Plant extracts are extensively researched as a source of green corrosion inhibitors. Herein, we report on a highly efficient and thermally stable corrosion inhibitor from the stem extract of high-altitude shrub Berberis aristata. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of the extract was tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 for the corrosion protection of mild steel (MS) by using gravimetric and electrochemi...

An S-shaped sinus node artery (SSNA), originating in the posterolateral part of the left circumflex artery (LCir) below or behind the left auricle, is described in detail. The coronary vessels were studied in 300 human hearts by x-ray films or by casting of the vessels, and the SSNA was found in 24 (21.5 percent) of the 111 cases where the sinus node artery (SNA) arose from the LCir, (ie, 8 per...

Using a longitudinal dataset which followed 2195 individuals employed in 3379 separate job placements over a four-year period, this paper explores movement between the employment supports, [Transitional (TE), Supported (SE), and Independent Employment (IE)], offered by clubhouses. Sixty-four percent of employed members held only one job (N=1395) and 36% held multiple jobs during the study (N=79...

This study examined the prevalence of senior centres providing multi-component falls prevention education and the perceived barriers in implementing this education. A telephone interview was conducted in 2006 with 500 senior centres nationwide. Centre directors were asked about the types of multi-component falls prevention education offered (ie, balance exercise classes, medication management, ...
