Picture 1. A, Barium enema showed dislocation of the descending colon (arrows). B, Ultrasonography depicted a high-echogenic mass with low-echoic crescent. C, Computed tomography with contrast enhancement represented a slightly enhanced mass with low-density crescent (arrow). D, T1-weighted magnetic resonance image (MRI) demonstrated low-intensity mass with high-intensity crescent (arrow). E, B...

UNLABELLED Phonological Disorder is a disturbance of primary manifestation of undefined causes that makes speech become unintelligible. The analysis of vocal parameters becomes important in the process of diagnosis of this disorder, since voice disorders could interfere in the production of speech sounds. AIM The objective of this study was to verify vocal characteristics related to the inten...

Prevalence and intensity of the intracellular Heamogregarine parasites (Haemogregarina stepanowi) was investigated in two species of freshwater turtles in Iran. Blood smears were collected from the European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) and the Caspian pond turtle (Mauremys caspica), air dried and stained by Giemsa. Prevalence and mean intensity of parasitemia in turtles of each locality were ...

This paper examines the e ect of a change in U.S. trade policy on the domestic investment of U.S. manufacturers. Using a di erence-in-di erences identi cation strategy, we nd that industries more exposed to reductions in import tari uncertainty exhibit relative declines in investment after the change in trade policy. Within industries, we nd that this relationship is concentrated among establis...

This paper attempts to (i) to assess the relative importance of benefits related to the gradual unfolding of business-to-business e-commerce (B-2-B e-commerce) penetration among manufacturing SMEs and (ii) to demonstrate that the scope and intensity of these benefits increase in the later stages of e-commerce penetration as organizational learning gradually takes place. Empirical evidence stron...

We present cathodoluminescence (CL) studies on low energy e-beam irradiated (LEEBI) metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) grown GaN films. High intensity LEEBI has been reported to reduce the band-edge photoluminescence intensity of MOVPE grown GaN films. Here we observe similar reduction of band-edge CL intensity with increasing LEEBI dose. The irradiation damage is found to be concentrate...

Remember that we are using natural logarithms, where the base is e ≈ 2.71828. Logarithms may have other bases, for instance the decimal logarithm of base 10. (The base 10 logarithm is used in the definition of the Richter scale, for instance, measuring the intensity of earthquakes as Richter = log(intensity). This is why an earthquake of magnitude 9 is 100 times more powerful than an earthquake...

Images arising from low-intensity settings such as in X-ray astronomy and computed tomography scan often show a relatively weak but constant background noise across the frame. The background noise can result from various uncontrollable sources. In such a situation, it has been observed that the performance of a denoising algorithm can be improved considerably if an additional thresholding proce...
