objective(s) recombinant adenoviruses are currently used for a variety of purposes, including in vitro gene transfer, in vivo vaccination, and gene therapy. ability to infect many cell types, high efficiency in gene transfer, entering both dividing and non dividing cells, and growing to high titers make this virus a good choice for using in various experiments. in the present experiment, a reco...

We propose an integrated activity-based discrete choice model system of an individual’s activity and travel schedule, for forecasting urban passenger travel demand. A prototype demonstrates the system concept using a 1991 Boston travel survey and transportation system level of service data. The model system represents a person’s choice of activities and associated travel as an activity pattern ...

This paper empirically examines the factors that drive firms to locate in Guangdong province, China. By dividing Guangdong province into 21 cities, I detect characteristics in each city and find how such characteristics affect firms’ location choices. During the period of economic reform in China in the past decades, industrial agglomeration, government preferential policy, resource endowment c...

Social-economic variables influence transportation demand largely. Analyses of discrete choice model consider social-economic variables to study traveler’s mode choice and demand. However, to calibrate the discrete choice model needs to have plenty of questionnaire survey. Also, an aggregative model is proposed. The historical data of passenger volumes for high speed rail and domestic civil avi...

ectopic eruption of teeth occurs in a variety of locations. commonly seen in palate and maxillary sinus, they have also been reported in nasal cavity, orbit, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, and facial skin. here, we report a rare case of recurrent sinusitis caused by ectopic tooth in right ethmoid sinus and successful endoscopic removal of it. the symptoms of the patient disappeared after...

Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium which causes a wide variety of human infections such as ocular, urogenital and respiratory infections. Genital infections of women, espe-cially when repeated, give rise to many complications such as ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage and in‌fertility. Since chlamydial infections are usually asymptomatic, they progress unnoticed and produc...

Approximately 25% of all oral cavity carcinomas involve the lips, and the primary management of these lesions is complete surgical resection. Loss of tissue in the lips after resection is treated with a variety of techniques, depending on the extension and location of the defect. Here we review highly accepted techniques of lip reconstruction and some of new trials with significant clinical ...
