Survivors of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) frequently have many years to experience the long-term toxicities of combined modality therapies. Also, a significant proportion of HL patients will relapse or have refractory disease, and less than half of these patients will respond to current salvage strategies. 30-50% of HL cases are Epstein-Barr virus associated (EBV-positive HL). The virus is localized...

Despite the growing number of heritage language (HL) learners in courses, interaction between second (L2) and HL has not been fully explored research, thus, it still remains unclear whether mixed (L2-HL) or matched (L2-L2, HL-HL) dyads are more beneficial for learning. This study investigates three possible dyad types differ terms form-focused episodes (FFEs) that arose while worked together, a...

A time-domain shooting method based coupled device and circuit simulator suitable for accurate simulation of RF circuits is presented. The simulator supports accurate numerical models for diodes, BJTs, and MOSFETs. These combined with the accelerated steady-state method allow accurate and efficient steady-state simulation of RF circuits.

Freshly isolated rat hepatocytes synthesize and secrete hepatic lipase (HL). Comparison of secreted HL with intracellular HL indicates a secretion-linked increase in the specific enzyme activity. (a) Immunotitration with polyclonal anti-HL showed a 3-5-fold lower specific enzyme activity of intracellular HL than of secreted HL. This was confirmed by ELISA using a mixture of monoclonal anti-HL's...

Hepatic lipase (HL) has a well-established role in lipoprotein metabolism. However, its role in atherosclerosis is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that HL deficiency raises the proatherogenic apoB-containing lipoprotein levels in plasma but reduces atherosclerosis in lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) transgenic (Tg) mice, similar to results previously observed with HL-deficient...

BACKGROUND Hybrid liposomes can be prepared by simply sonicating a mixture of vesicular and micellar molecules in buffer solutions. In this study, we investigated the effects of hybrid liposomes on the growth of human colon cancer cells in vitro. METHODS Hybrid liposomes (HL-n, n = 21, 23, 25) composed of L-α-dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and polyoxyethylene(n) dodecyl ethers (C(12)(E...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare speech production at 12 months of age for children with hearing loss (HL) who were identified and received intervention before 6 months of age with those of children with normal hearing (NH). METHOD The speech production of 10 children with NH was compared with that of 10 children with HL whose losses were identified (better ear pure-tone avera...

This study presents the simulation, fabrication and characterization ofmicromechanical radio frequency (RF) switch with micro inductors. The inductors areemployed to enhance the characteristic of the RF switch. An equivalent circuit model isdeveloped to simulate the performance of the RF switch. The behaviors of themicromechanical RF switch are simulated by the finite element method software,Co...
