The profile of the H2 1-0 S(1) line has been observed at 35 km/s velocit resolution at several locations within OMC-1, including in the molecular hydrogen reflection nebula. The profiles have been deconvolved from instrumental effect using the "maximum-entropy" method. In addition, at four locations (Peaks 1,2 5 and IRc2) the polarization profile across the line has been measured. All lin profi...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Most cases of chronic otitis media (OMC) are associated with poor development of the mastoid air cells (MACs) and poor Eustachian tube (ET) function. We have previously reported that MAC regeneration can effectively eliminate intractable OMC. In this study, we assessed the ability of regenerated MACs to restore normal gas exchange function and contribute to improved ET fun...

0022-2836/$ see front matter © 2010 E Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane (TM) receptors formed by noncovalent associations of α and β subunits. Each subunit contains a single α-helical TM domain. Inside-out activation of an integrin involves the separation of its cytoplasmic tails, leading to disruption of αβ TM packing. The leukocyte integrin αLβ2 is required for leukocyte adhesion, mig...

this paper presents a method for generating a digital management map to apply cyanazine pre-emergence herbicide. the main objective was to develop a precision method to generate management maps for the variable rate application of herbicide to reduce the amount of herbicide applied and its adverse impact on the environment. first, local and utm coordinates of a field were determined using total...

Context. The freezeout of gas-phase species onto cold dust grains can drastically alter the chemistry and the heating-cooling balance of protostellar material. In contrast to well-known species such as carbon monoxide (CO), the freezeout of various carriers of elements with abundances < 10−5 has not yet been well studied. Aims. Our aim here is to study the depletion of chlorine in the protostel...

BACKGROUND Factors influencing clinical course of brace treatment apply to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients remain unclear. By making clear them, we may select suitable patients for brace treatment and alleviate overtreatment. The purpose of this study was to explore predictive factors of Osaka Medical College (OMC) brace treatment for AIS patients in accordance with the modified ...
