The Text Encoding Initiative’s typed segment-boundary delimiter method is only one of several proposed mechanisms for handling overlap in TEI documents. HORSE (aka CLIX) defines a method by which an XML element is used normally when possible and as an improved version of the typed segment-boundary delimiter method when an overlap problem is encountered. A significant portion of the rules necess...

Ranging from circuit-level characterization to designing a platform architecture, developing design automation tool, and fabricating System on Chip (SoC), this article deals with the entire development process for ultralow-power (ULP) SoCs Internet-of-Things (IoT) end nodes. More precisely, first focuses unique characteristics of ULP circuits, temperature effect inversion (TEI), i.e., delay cir...

Methods: Female Wistar rats aged 24 months old (referred to as adult) were divided into 2 groups with 15 animals each: Euthyroid (Eut) and Hypothyroid (Hypo) rats. Hypothyroidism was induced by total thyroidectomy. The plasmatic levels of T3, T4, TSH and free ionic calcium were measured. Echocardiographic analysis was performed using the following parameters: left ventricular end-diastolic (LVE...

Background and Objectives:Chronic hypertension induces changes in the cardiac structure and function; however, the effects of transient hypertension are unclear. Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) offers a natural and spontaneous model of this condition. Subjects and Methods:20 women, aged 30.3±5.1 years, with pregnancy-induced hypertension, defined as a blood pressure higher than 140/90 mmHg...

Abstract. El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) modulates severe thunderstorm activity in the US, with increased expected during La Niña conditions. There is also evidence that influenced by Arctic (AO), positive phase being associated enhanced activity. The combined ENSO–AO impact relevant for situations such as early 2021, when persistent, strong and negative AO events occurred Here we examine ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the right and left ventricular systolic and diastolic function in middle aged patients with sickle beta thalassaemia. METHODS Forty three patients with sickle beta thalassaemia were recruited for echocardiographic study while 55 controls, matched for age and sex, served as the control group. Parameters measured included: dimensions and wall thickness of left (LV) and rig...
