Insufficient suppression of LH (premature elevation) and FSH (prolonged release) give rise to blood concentrations which may cause damaging effects on oocyte viability and too many follicles respectively. During the surge, LH rises from low to high threshold values to initiate processes from initiation of the resumption of oocyte meiosis to the induction of ovulation. In general, it is thought ...

Metal oxide surge arresters (ZNO) are used widely in power system to protect equipments from over voltages. Non uniform potential distribution leads to the depressed service life and low safe reliability, so grading ring is applied on HV surge arrester order to uniform the electric field distribution. One of the problems of arresters is leakage current in power frequency that different paramet...

BACKGROUND A hospital's capacity and preparedness is one of the important parts of disaster planning. Hospital-related incidents, a new phenomenon in Swedish healthcare, may lead to ambulance diversions, increased waiting time at emergency departments and treatment delay along with deterioration of disaster management and surge capacity. We aimed to identify the causes and impacts of hospital-r...

Cardiomyocytes, the cells of the heart muscle, lose nearly all of their proliferative capacity after birth, limiting the heart's ability to regenerate. Naqvi et al. now identify a transient burst of cardiomyocyte proliferation during preadolescence, driven by a thyroid hormone surge, with therapeutic implications for congenital and acquired heart diseases.

OBJECTIVES To assess current medical staffing levels within the Hospital Referral System in the City of Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality, South Africa, and analyze the surge capacity needs to prepare for the potential of a conventional mass casualty incident during a planned mass gathering. METHODS Query of all available medical databases of both state employees and private medical personn...
