There are few studies on the land subsidence induced by shield tunneling in water-rich sandy gravel stratum, which is of high research value. Linear regression and measured data were employed this study to investigate when crossing stratum from Mudan Dadao Station Longmen station Luoyang Metro Line 2. The maximum correction coefficient, ?, settlement trough width ?, introduced modify peck formu...

The effectiveness of fisheries management is limited by the paucity of information on how management tools, such as marine protected areas, impact key fisheries species. In the Gulf of Maine, more information is needed to determine how marine protected areas such as the Cashes Ledge Closure Area influence fish population dynamics and subsequently the status of fishery stocks. We utilized video ...

Portable antennas have become an increasingly common technique for tracking fish marked with passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags. We used logistic regression to evaluate how species, fish length, and physical habitat characteristics influence portable antenna detection efficiency in stream-dwelling brown trout (Salmo trutta), bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus), and redband trout (Oncorhy...

Female genital tuberculosis (TB) remains as a major cause of tubal obstruction leading to infertility, especially in developing countries. The global prevalence of genital tuberculosis has increased during the past two decades due to increasing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Genital TB is commonly asymptomatic, and it is diagnosed during infertility investigations. Despite of recent...

We investigated the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on differentiation and secretion of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in an acute kidney injury microenvironment. Acute kidney injury mouse models were prepared. Both renal cortices were then immediately collected to produce the ischemia/reperfusion kidney homogenate supernatant. The morphological and ultrastructural changes in the cel...

Four species of talitrid amphipods (Orchestia montagui Audouin, 1826, Orchestia stephenseni Cecchini, 1928, Orchestia xylino sp. nov. and Talitrus saltator (Montagu, 1808)) are reported from a set of fragmented pocket beaches to the east of Heraklion on the north coast of Crete. Aside from a previous record of O. stephenseni these are the first records of talitrid amphipods from the island of C...
