Certification challenges and higher than anticipated development costs for the Local Area Augmentation System (LAAS) have motivated the investigation of alternative approaches for achieving Category I precision approach and landing service. One proposed alternative is the Local Airport Monitor (LAM). This concept would rebroadcast Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) differential corrections in...

PURPOSE We have previously reported that continuous hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) might be more effective for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (aHCC) in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) related to HCV infection (C-LC) or alcohol abuse (A-LC) than in patients who had LC related to HBV infection (B-LC). The aim of the present study was to retrospectively assess the efficacy of ...

this article enquires in to the uses of lam(not) and lamma (not yet) in the holy qurã¡n . it does so by delving in to the meanings of lam and lamma and their different types and uses in the qurã¡n , providing the views of the scholors about their grammatical effects , describing the syntactic position of the sentences negativized by lam and lamma and giving the counts for differential positions...

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease characterized by diffuse thin-walled cysts throughout the lungs on computed tomography and diffuse proliferation of abnormal smooth muscle-like cells (LAM cells) on lung biopsy. LAM affects women almost exclusively, predominantly in their reproductive age. The most typical presenting symptoms include dyspnea, spontaneous pneumothorax, cough and c...

Lamellarin D (Lam-D) is a hexacyclic pyrole alkaloid isolated from marine invertebrates, whose biologic properties have been attributed to mitochondrial targeting. Mitochondria contain their own DNA (mtDNA), and the only specific mitochondrial topoisomerase in vertebrates is mitochondrial topoisomerase I (Top1mt). Here, we show that Top1mt is a direct mitochondrial target of Lam-D. In vitro Lam...

BACKGROUND Simple immune capture assays that detect mycobacterial lipoarabinomannan (LAM) antigen in urine are promising new tools for the diagnosis of HIV-associated tuberculosis (HIV-TB). In addition, however, recent prospective cohort studies of patients with HIV-TB have demonstrated associations between LAM in the urine and increased mortality risk during TB treatment, indicating an additio...

Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. (Jackfruit) is traditionally used as anticonvulsant. The aqueous and methanol extracts of leaves of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. was evaluated for anticonvulsant activity by using Maximal electroshock (MES) and Strychnine induced convulsions models on Swiss albino mice. The methanol extracts of leaves of Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. were found to be more signific...

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is an uncommon disease presented as diffuse thin-walled cystic changes in the lung. The main differential diagnoses include pulmonary Langerhans' histiocytosis (PLCH), Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHD), lymphoid interstitial pneumonia (LIP), and amyloidosis. A combination of clinical, radiological, and pathological approaches as well as genetic testing will clarify th...

BACKGROUND/AIM Lamivudine (LAM) plus adefovir (ADV) combination therapy is clinically efficacious for treating chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients in China, but no pharmacoeconomic evaluations of this strategy are available. The aim of this study was to examine the cost-effectiveness of LAM plus ADV combination treatment compared with five other nucleos(t)ide analog monotherapies (LAM, ADV, telb...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Reduction of viraemia in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection using nucleoside/nucleotide analogues reduces fatal liver disease-related events, but development of resistance in virus presents serious clinical challenge. Therefore, comparative evaluation of prolonged antiviral monotherapy and combination therapies was prospectively studied to assess the...
