A field experiment was conducted to provide a complete greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting for global warming potential (GWP), net GWP, and greenhouse gas intensity (GHGI) from no-tillage (NT) paddy fields with different amounts of oilseed rape residue mulch (0, 3000, 4000, and 6000 kg dry matter (DM) ha(-1)) during a rice-growing season after 3 years of oilseed rape-rice cultivation. Residue mulch...

Distribution of weight change (kg) on 2078 occasions on consecutive days in healthy young men Methods ofmeasuring calories (food energy) are different from those for the other essential nutrients. Measurement ofenergy balance is technically difficult and can only be done in a specially equipped laboratory. Energy expenditure is measured by calorimetry, nearly always indirect calorimetry-that is...

The pharmacokinetics of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were studied in 12 healthy adult subjects receiving trimethoprim at 20 mg/kg of body weight per day and sulfamethoxazole at 100 mg/kg/day, which is the conventional dose for treating Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP). Daily doses were evenly divided and orally administered every 6 h for 3 days. Trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole, and N4-acety...
