Abstract Between 2015 and 2020 a study was conducted on the diversity of ruderal vegetation Stellarietea mediae class territory Ukraine. It discovered that this consists 48 associations from 12 alliances 5 orders ( Aperetalia spicae-venti , Atriplici-Chenopodietalia albi Eragrostietalia Papaveretalia rhoeadis Sisymbrietalia sophiae ). Based results ordination analysis it found distribution annu...

Maternal hypothyroidism impairs fetal growth in the rat, but the mechanisms by which this occurs are unknown. Since the fetus derives its glucose supply from the mother, and maternal thyroidectomy may disturb maternal and placental glucose metabolism, we postulated that maternal and/or placental glucose metabolic compromise may contribute to fetal growth retardation in hypothyroid dams. Feto-pl...

OBJECTIVE This study examined the metabolic effects of heart transplantation in patients in end-stage cardiac failure. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 18 patients after heart transplantation for end-stage heart disease (age 47 +/- 3 years; transplant age 5.5 +/- 1.5 years; BMI 25.8 +/- 0.8 kg/m(2); cyclosporin A 4.2 +/- 0.6 mg/[kg.day]; azathioprine 0.87 +/- 0.31 mg/[kg.day]), 12 patie...

A two phases process consisting of a soya lecithin (SL)-based soil washing process followed by the photocatalytic treatment of resulting effluents was developed and applied at the laboratory scale in the remediation of an actual-site soil historically contaminated by 0.65 g/kg of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Triton X-100 (TX) was employed in the same process as a control surfactant. SL and...

In this paper, an inhomogeneous human body model was presented to investigate the propagation characteristics when the human body was used as an antenna to achieve signal transmission. Specifically, the channel gain of four scenarios, namely, (1) both TX electrode and RX electrode were placed in the air, (2) TX electrode was attached on the human body, and RX electrode was placed in the air, (3...

In this paper, a single-chip front-end (SCFE) operating in Ku-band (12–17 GHz) is presented. It designed exploiting GaN on SiC technology featured by 150 nm gate length provided UMS foundry. This MMIC integrates high power and low noise amplification functions enabled single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch, occupying total area of 20 mm2. The transmitting chain (Tx) presents 39 dBm output power...
