OBJECTIVE To investigate the reproductive performance of non-pregnant women with recurrent spontaneous miscarriage (RSM) and the association between RSM and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in reproductive failure. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Fifty non-pregnant women with 3 or more consecutive RSM attending our RSM clinic were evaluated prospectively. Detailed history and physical examination were c...

BACKGROUND A higher frequency of spontaneous miscarriage has been observed in infertile couples, and there is a higher prevalence of infertility among patients with a history of recurrent spontaneous miscarriages (RSMs; ≥2 miscarriages). This study aimed to determine the proportion of infertile patients with RSM and examine risk factors associated in patients with RSM being treated with assiste...

OBJECTIVE This experiment evaluated the effect of dietary supplementation levels of rapeseed meal (RSM) in gestation diets on reproductive performance, blood profiles, milk composition of sows, and growth of their progeny. METHODS A total of 55 mixed-parity sows (Yorkshire×Landrace; average parity = 3.82) with an initial body weight (BW) of 193.0 kg were used in this experiment. Sows were all...

Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), a recently identified vertebrate receptor, serves a pivotal role in immune responses. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between the human TLR4 gene and recurrent spontaneous miscarriage (RSM). A total of 306 RSM patents and 306 age-matched controls were genotyped for four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the human TLR4 gene (rs...

Experimental data from wind-tunnel tests of the Rigid Semispan Model (RSM) performed at NASA Langley's Transonic Dynamics Tunnel (TDT) are presented. The primary focus of the paper is on data obtained from testing of the RSM on the Oscillating Turntable (OTT). The OTT is capable of oscillating models in pitch at various amplitudes and frequencies about mean angles of attack. Steady and unsteady...

It is well known that the generalization capability is one of the most important criterions to develop and evaluate a classifier for a given pattern classification problem. The localized generalization error model (RSM) [2, 12] recently proposed by Ng et al. provides a more intuitive look at the generalization error. Although RSM gives a brand-new method to promote the generalization performanc...

The Semantic Link Network model SLN and Resource Space Model RSM are semantic models proposed separately for effectively specifying and managing versatile resources across the Internet. Collaborating the relational semantics of SLN with the classification semantics of the RSM can support richer semantic modeling in applications. This paper introduces the Resource Class Hierarchies into the SLN ...
