patients and methods seventy patients with chronic partial supraspinatus tears in magnetic resonance imaging were randomized into two groups; prp (n = 35) and pt (n = 35). before the treatment, at the end of the treatment and at the 12th month after the end of the treatment, range of motion (rom), visual analog scale (vas) for pain, disabilities of arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire (dash), n...

The structure and viscosity of the dephosphorization slag in new double converter steelmaking process with low basicity at temperature range 1573 K–1723 K are studied high-temperature laboratorial experiments. With increasing end dephosphorization, viscosities different slags decrease rapidly first, then slowly, activation energies increase. values Non-Bridging Oxygen per Silicon (NBO/Si) decre...

The first approximately 60 amino acids of the N-terminal part of the potyvirus helper component-proteinase (HC-Pro) include highly conserved residues comprising a Cys-rich region. In the present study, the domain in Potato virus Y sufficient for self-interaction was mapped using the yeast two-hybrid system to the 83 N-terminal amino acids of HC-Pro. Mutations in the conserved His and two Cys re...

Neutron-rich nuclei beyond N = 126 in the lead region were populated by fragmenting a U beam at 1 GeV A on a Be target and then separated by the Fragment Separator (FRS) at GSI. Their isomeric decays were observed, enabling study of the shell structure of neutron-rich nuclei around the Z=82 shell closure. Some preliminary results are reported in this paper.

We have analyzed the 2E1-3A1 area of the X chromosome with special attention to loci related to embryogenesis. Published maps indicate that this chromosomal segment contains ten bands. Our genetic analysis has identified 11 complementation groups: one recessive visible (prune), two female steriles and eight lethals. One of the female sterile loci is fs(1)k10 for which homozygous females produce...

objective: the lrr (leucine rich proteoglycans) is a molecular recognition motif found in proteins with some roles in cell adhesion, signal transduction, dna repair and rna processing. opticin is a member of this family. takanosu et al (2001) detected messenger rna expression of mouse opticin in the eye, heart, brain, testis, thyroid and epididymis by dot blot hybridization. in this study, exp...

background: plantar fasciitis (pf) is a common foot complaint, affects both active sportsmen and physically inactive middle age group. it is believed that pf results from degenerative changes rather than inflammation. platelet?rich plasma (prp) therapy has been introduced as an alternative therapy for pf. this study is aimed to systematically review to the effectiveness and relevant factors of ...

We present an abundance analysis of light elements in the most massive chemically peculiar (CP) stars, He-rich stars. The analysis is based on both low and high-resolution observations collected at ESO, La Silla, Chile in the optical region and includes 6 standard and 21 He-rich stars. Light element abundances display a diverse pattern from under-solar up to above-solar values. Carbon is found ...
