Abstract The effects of single species cover crops on corn ( Zea mays L.) N requirement and grain yield are well studied throughout the U.S. Midwest. However, comparing crop mixes that include different compositions grass broadleaf is limited. Fourteen response experiments were conducted in South Dakota from 2018 to 2021. Fall planted after small harvest mixtures dominantly grasses, broadleaves...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the effects of nebivolol and telmisartan on left ventricular mass (LVM) and midwall mechanics in mild-to-moderate hypertension. METHODS A total of 40 patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension were randomized to receive either nebivolol (2.5 to 5.0 mg/day) or telmisartan (40 to 80 mg/day) to achieve a target diastolic blood pressure of <90 mm H...

We performed a cross-sectional study in a small town in northern Japan to evaluate the distribution, reference values, and daily variation in ambulatory blood pressure. A total of 705 subjects (229 men aged 61.3 +/- 13.4 years [mean +/- SD] and 476 women aged 57.5 +/- 13.3 years; 41.1% of the regional adult population, n = 1716), including those treated with antihypertensive drugs (n = 231, 66....

For assessing the impact of melatonin pre-treatment in summer anestrous Murrah buffaloes on subsequent reproductive activity a fixed time artificial insemination (FTAI) protocol, 83 were subcutaneously inserted 2x4 mm size absorbable (MT) implants (18 mg/50 kg b wt) at base left ear and 38 used as non-implanted controls. On day 35 post-MT, treatment control group subjected to FTAI protocol (Ovs...

INTRODUCTION This study was a cephalometric evaluation of the growth changes in untreated subjects with deepbite at 4 time points during their developmental ages (from the early mixed dentition to the permanent dentition, and from the prepubertal phase to young adulthood). METHODS A sample of 29 subjects with deepbite (overbite >4.5 mm) was followed longitudinally from about 9 through about 1...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to clinically assess the capacity of a novel bovine pericardium based, non-cross linked collagen matrix in root coverage. METHODS 62 gingival recessions of Miller class I or II were treated. The matrix was adapted underneath a coronal repositioned split thickness flap. Clinical values were assessed at baseline and after six months. RESULTS The mean rec...

Mutations into codons Aspartate-87 (62%) and Serine-83 (38%) in QRDR of gyrA were identified in 105 Salmonella strains resistant to nalidixic acid (94 epidemic and 11 of poultry origin). The results show a high incidence of mutations associated to quinolone resistance but suggest association with others mechanisms of resistance.

Serine protease inhibitors, known as serpins, are mainly expressed in newborn and early-stage Trichinella spiralis larvae, suggesting that T. spiralis serpin (TsSERP) could be used as antigen for the immunodiagnosis of swine trichinosis. We produced His-tagged recombinant TsSERP (rTsSERP) in Escherichia coli and purified it using a Co(2+)-affinity column. Western blot (WB) and enzyme-linked imm...

Abstract Introduction NHS England sets standards to ensure prompt specialist review, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Patients with suspected cancer should receive review within 14 days referral, diagnosis by day 28 first 62. To reduce transmission during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, recommended telephone triage as appointment. The effect on head neck timeframes in an teaching hospital was asses...
