Postnatal CD34(+) cells expressing vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (KDR) generate hematopoietic or endothelial progeny in different in vitro and in vivo assays. Hypothetically, CD34(+)KDR(+) cells may comprise hemangioblasts bipotent for both lineages. This hypothesis is consistent with 2 series of experiments. In the first series, in clonogenic culture permissive for hematopoieti...

BACKGROUND Though rehabilitation attempts to correct "stiff knee gait" and control for dynamic limb valgus after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), impaired biomechanics often persist when an individual is cleared to return to sport (RTS). Reduced knee extension moments (KEMs) and knee flexion angles (KFAs) often continue. While at the hip, increased hip adduction angles (HADDAs)...

Introduction: Weck Hem-o-Lok (Teleflex Medical, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina) clips are frequently used to achieve hemostasis of the lateral prostatic pedicles during radical prostatectomy. Rarely, these clips can detach and migrate into the bladder wall, leading to postoperative urinary tract complications. Hem-o-Lok clip migration into the bladder is a rare complication of laparosco...

Clusters of genes encoding enzymes for tetrapyrrole biosynthesis were cloned from Bacillus sphaericus, Bacillus stearothermophilus, Brevibacillus brevis and Paenibacillus macerans. The sequences of all hemX genes found, and of a 6.3 kbp hem gene cluster from P. macerans, were determined. The structure of the hem gene clusters was compared to that of other Gram-positive bacteria. The Bacillus an...

Previously undescribed conditions as myalgic encephalomyelitis or Royal Free disease, aseptic meningitis with an a^hem and little known syndromes such as herpangina, pharyngo-conjunctival fever cjjj Ornholm disease have achieved a position of interest and even of importance as of ,S.es of morbidity. Moreover, the development of new techniques f...

This paper describes a method to pick up a folded cloth product by a single-armed robot. We focus on a problem on picking up a folded cloth, and organize tasks to attack it. Then, we propose methods of grasp position estimation composed of two stages: detection of the thickest folded hem and pose estimation of the cloth product. In addition, we attempt to search for appropriate grasping posture...

Real-world face detection and alignment demand an advanced discriminative model to address challenges by pose, lighting and expression. Recent studies have utilized the relation between face detection and alignment to make models computationally efficiency, but they ignore the connection between each cascade CNNs. In this paper, we combine detection, calibration and alignment in each Cascade CN...
