To determine the density of mast cells (MCs) and the extent of substance P (SP) immunoreactivity during initiation and progression of pneumonic pasteurellosis (PP), 18 lambs were inoculated intrabronchially with Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica or saline, and lung tissue was collected at 1, 15 and 45 days post-inoculation (n=3, each group). Additionally, the left (non-inoculated) contralate...

PURPOSE Precocious puberty is defined as breast development before the age of 8 years in girls. The present study aimed to reveal the diagnosis of Korean girls referred for precocious puberty and to compare the constitutional and endocrinological features among diagnosis groups. METHODS The present study used a retrospective chart review of 988 Korean girls who had visited a pediatric endocri...

MENT OF OBSTETRIC PROBLEMS. Edited by T. Barnett and J. J. Foley. (Pp. xiii+ 188; illustrated. 50s.) Oxford: Pcrgamon Press, 1963. THIS is the transcript of proceedings at the first Obstetric Coonference held under the auspices of the South-WVestern Obstetrical and Gv-nacological Society in Portsmouth in November, 1961. There were five sessions, devoted to the very important practical subjects ...

The interpretation of modified PPs, like one meter behind the desk, far outside the village, or right under the lamp has never received much attention in the literature about prepositions. However, as this paper shows, the modification of PPs presents an intriguing problem for a compositional semantics of PPs. This problem can be solved when the PP is interpreted, not as a set of points or mere...

Findings from recent eye-tracking studies suggest that adults prefer to rely more on recently seen events than possible future events during sentence comprehension: When the verb in an NP1-VERB-ADV-NP2 sentence was referentially ambiguous between a recent action and an equally possible future action, adults fixated the target of the recent action more often than the not-yet-acted upon object (K...

In this paper a new fast algorithm for the computation of the distance of a stable matrix to the unstable matrices is provided. The method is based on finding a two-dimensional Jordan block corresponding to a pure imaginary eigenvalue in a certain two-parameter Hamiltonian eigenvalue problem introduced by Byers (SIAM J. Sci. Statist. Comput., 9 (1988), pp. 875–881). Numerical results are presen...

a fourth-generation ziegler-natta catalyst was prepared to synthesize polypropylene (pp), which was stabilized by in situ polymerization employing lignin as antioxidant. the antioxidant properties of lignin were compared with those of the commercial antioxidant irganox 1010. the presence of lignin in the reaction medium slightly decreased the catalytic activity of the reaction. the isotacticity...
