We have recently synthesized [Ni (MAP) ] complex [H-MAP= 2- (methylamino) pyridine]. 2- (Methy1amino)pyridine reacts with MeLi in THF and generates the lithium salt (Li-MAP). Further reaction of NiCl with two equivalent of this ligand in THF leads to the formation of a dark red solution. Analytical data, molecular weight, and magnetic susceptibility of this complex confirm the formula [N...

The study of knowledge has always been one of the central issues of the AI research. The general belief has been that "the more you have it the better you are." It was well understood that incorrect knowledge is harmful and should be avoided, but correct knowledge had been mostly considered beneficial. The potential harmfulness of correct knowledge received attention in very few early works but...

Soleus H-reflex tests are used for elucidating pathophysiological mechanisms in motor control. The cumulative vibratory inhibition of the soleus H-reflex, the ratio of the reflex to direct muscle potential (H to M ratio) and the recovery curve of the soleus H-reflex were studied in 38 patients with varying signs of the upper motor neuron syndrome for a possible relation with clinical features. ...

OBJECTIVE Alloimmunization in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) has a reported incidence of 5% to 36%. One complication of alloimmunization is delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction/hyperhemolysis (DHTR/H) syndrome, which has a reported incidence of 11%. In patients with SCD, clinical findings in DHTR/H syndrome occur approximately 1 week after the red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and inc...
