The antitumor effect of lentinan in syngeneic and autochthonous tumor-host systems and its suppressive effect on 3-methylcholanthrene (MC)-induced carcinogenesis were confirmed using DBA/2 and SWM/Ms hosts. The regressive activity of lentinan against the solid form of Sarcoma 180 was the most effective in DBA/2, SWM/Ms, or A/J mice and less effective in C3H/He or C57BL/6 mice. The growth of a s...

Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with Self-compacting (SCC) jacketing galvanized welded steel wire mesh (SWM) has been an important area study so far. Increasing the mechanical characteristics and structures to maintain required service life load capacity any structure is exciting area. In this research, a Finite Element (FE) investigation conducted on series that were previously...

This paper studies the relationship between logic programs and term rewrit ing systems TRSs A compositional transform is de ned which given a logic program computes a TRS For a relevant class of logic programs called Simply Well Moded SWM there is a one to one correspondence between computed answer substitutions of the logic program and normal forms of the correspond ing TRS Moreover the transf...

The ability to predict an occurrence of cholera, a water-related disease, offers a significant public health advantage. Satellite based estimates of chlorophyll, a surrogate for plankton abundance, have been linked to cholera incidence. However, cholera bacteria can survive under a variety of coastal ecological conditions, thus constraining the predictive ability of the chlorophyll, since it pr...

With the growing population, solid waste management (SWM) is becoming a significant environmental challenge and an emerging issue, especially in eco-sensitive Indian Himalayan region (IHR). Though IHR does not host high local inhabitants, tourist footfall increases wastes significantly. The lack of appropriate SWM facilities has posed serious threat to mountain-dwelling communities. challenging...

Angiographically determined changes in segmental wall motion (SWM) and ejection fraction (EF) are sensitive indices of left ventricular (LV) function. To compare the effects of exercise on LV function, first pass radionuclide angiocardiography was used before and during maximal upright bicycle stress in patients with nonsignificantly stenosed coronary arteries, and in those with greater than 75...

As the largest solid waste (SW) generator in the world, China is facing serious pollution issues induced by increasing quantities of SW. The sustainability assessment of SW management is very important for designing relevant policy for further improving the overall efficiency of solid waste management (SWM). By focusing on industrial solid waste (ISW) and municipal solid waste (MSW), the paper ...

Changes in ejection fraction (EF) and segmental wall motion (SWM) have been shown to be sensitive indicators of left ventricular (LV) function. This information is only obtainable by contrast angiography or gated blood pool scans. Gated studies assume a fixed geometry for the LV for EF determinations, are lengthy and limited primarily to the LAO projection. We correlated contrast and Tc-99m per...

Angiographically determined changes in segmental wall motion (SWM) and ejection fraction (EF) are sensitive indices of left ventricular (LV) function. To compare the effects of exercise on LV function, first pass radionticlide angiocardiography was used before and during maximal upright bicycle stress in patients with nonsignificantly stenosed coronary arteries, and in those with > 75% stenosis...

For large numbers of targets, path planning is a complex and computationally expensive task. Humans, however, usually solve such tasks quickly and efficiently. We present experiments studying human path planning performance and the cognitive processes and heuristics involved. Twenty-five places were arranged on a regular grid in a large room. Participants were repeatedly asked to solve travelin...
