lymphocytic infiltration of jessner-kanof is a chronic, benign t cell infiltration disorder of exposed skin with unknown etiology. in some instances, these lesions are induced or aggravated by light exposure. in this case report, we are going to describe an interesting occupationally related skin disease, jessner's disease, after several years working with computer. on the basis of literature r...

β-Cell mitochondrial dysfunction as well as proinflammatory cytokines have been suggested to contribute to reduced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in type 2 diabetes. We recently demonstrated that Cohen diabetic sensitive (CDs) rats fed a high-sucrose, low-copper diet (HSD) developed hyperglycemia and reduced GSIS in association with peri-islet infiltration of fat and interleukin (I...

Introduction: Measures of hip muscle morphology and composition (e.g., size fatty infiltration) are possible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Standardised protocols or guidelines do not exist for evaluation characteristics, hindering reliable valid inter-study analysis. This scoping review aimed to collate synthesise MRI methods measuring lateral infiltration inform the future development...

Increased environmental awareness has promoted the need for improved feedlot runoff control. The use of vegetative treatment systems (VTSs) to control and treat feedlot runoff may enhance environmental security and protect water quality. Knowledge of effluent nutrient concentrations throughout the vegetative treatment system is required to evaluate impact on water quality and system performance...

The main objective of this article is to present the calibration process of a computer model of a naturally-ventilated house built in southern Brazil. The house was monitored over two seven-day periods by using Hobo data loggers. The EnergyPlus computer program was used to create a computer model for the house; parameters related to air infiltration and natural ventilation were modeled by using...

A novel rapid chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) processing defined by multi-physics fields CVI was used to fabricate carbon/carbon (C/C) composites. Liquid petrol gas is used as carbon source and the parameters were experimental tested and optimized. The influence of temperature and pressure on the growth of pyrocarbon was investigated in detail. Because of the influence of multi-physics fields...

ABSTRACT Surface condition of powder details on the different stages of producing of joining elements is the important factor that influences on the choice of technological conditions of operations and end-use properties and running ability of product. Generally, the roughness, porosity and microstructure determine the surface condition. The results of investigation of surfaces of iron-copper d...

ABSTRACT- To study the effect of tree roots on increasing water infiltration in soil and also to determine and assess the coefficients of different infiltration models, some infiltration tests were performed in three tree plantation areas in Badjgah, Fars province with different soil textures (clay loam for pear plantation, sandy loam for grape plantation, loamy sand for pine trees). In each pl...

a 47 year-old female died after mitral valve replacement. post-cardiopulmonary bypass right ventricle was not able to pump despite good left ventricular contractility. at microscopic examination, diffuse right ventricular fatty infiltration was found. we found no previous report of this pathology in patients with mitral stenosis
