A 79-y-old man presented with obstructive jaundice in July 2001 and was diagnosed with carcinoma of the head of the pancreas. He underwent a total pancreatectomy, as well as resection of the distal stomach, duodenum, spleen, and gall bladder. Histology showed a 9 3 10 3 6.5–cm tumour at the head of the pancreas that, upon microscopic examination, showed a moderately differentiated invasive aden...

Objective: To assess the effects of intravenous vitamin C administration on the vasomotor responses to intracoronary L-arginine infusion in epicardial coronary arteries. Methods: 28 patients with coronary artery disease and stable angina were enrolled in the study. Eight patients received intracoronary infusions of 150 mmol/min L-arginine before and after intravenous infusion of vitamin C, 10 p...

a 40 year old female presented with a history of cough for 1.5 years and diarrhea for 5 days. she further had a history of pinkish discoloration of skin and red-crusted papules on the anterior and posterior parts of the trunk. chest x-ray and chest ctscan revealed focal nodular densities in lung besides an anterior mediastinal mass. the mediastinal mass was surgically removed and the pathologic...

There are some reports on the lignan constituents of Linum spp. In this study, we investigated the cyototoxicity of Linum spp. in vitro cultures for the first time. If they show significant cytotoxic activity, they will be valuable candidates for isolation of cytotoxic compounds in large scale from them by tissue culture technology. In our study, we chose normal root, hairy root and calli cultu...

We kinetically analyzed the disposition of L-carnitine of juvenile visceral steatosis (JVS) mice compared with that of normal mice to elucidate the mechanism of the systemic L-carnitine deficiency of JVS mice. There were significant differences in the plasma concentration-time course of total radioactive carnitine (L-[3H]carnitine, [acetyl-3H]carnitine, and other [acyl-3H]carnitines) between no...

A 9-year-old Afro-Caribbean boy presented with fever, abdominal pain and collapse. Physical examination was normal, as were chest X-ray computed tomography of his head. Urinalysis showed microscopic haematuria proteinuria. reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA. His full blood count on presentation a haemoglobin concentration 99 g/l, mean cell volum...

The only presently known normal form for a regular language L ∈ Reg is its Minimal Deterministic Automaton MDA(L). We show that a regular language is also characterized by a finite dimension dim(L), which is always smaller than the number |MDA(L)| of states, and often exponentially so. The dimension is also the minimal number of states of all Nondeterministic Xor Automaton (NXA) which accept th...
