Although Cerebral venous thrombosis is an uncommon cause of stroke among the young, it is being increasingly recognised. A prothrombotic risk factor is identified in the majority of the patients. In most instances it is seen in women in the post-partum period and those on oral contraceptives. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has improved our ability to diagnose this condition however the variab...

This work reports the results of paired experiments for aft section a complex internal cooling flow within gas turbine vane using Magnetic Resonance Velocimetry (MRV) and steady-state Infrared (IR) thermography. The insert with two-pass impingement was designed at scale five times larger than original built stereolithography (SLA) fabrication methods. MRV technique used to measure three-dimensi...

Pathogenic viruses can harm acutely the life and health of laboratory tree shrews acutely; however, few papers exist regarding natural pathogenic virus infection in this species. Six fecal samples obtained from dead tree shrews were collected. The fecal supernatant infected Vero cell line resulted in cytopathic effects (CPE) after 72 h. The CPE included granulating, shrinking, rounding, seining...

Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) is associated with heart- and skeletal muscle inflammation in farmed Atlantic salmon. The virus is ubiquitous and found in both farmed and wild salmonid fish. It belongs to the family Reoviridae, closely related to the genus Orthoreovirus. The PRV genome comprises ten double-stranded RNA segments encoding at least eight structural and two non-structural proteins. Ery...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the advantages of gradient echo (GRE) sequences in the detection and characterization of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis compared to conventional magnetic resonance sequences. METHODS A total of 17 patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) were evaluated using different magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences. The MRI sequences i...

The progress at the Copenhagen Conference of the Parties 15 (COP15) to include the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD) in the post-Kyoto UNFCCC agreement manifested the demand for reliable remote sensing data streams to support tropical nation’s establishment of measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) systems to track forest carbon. ALOS...

Clinical characteristics of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients complicated with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) between 2000 and 2013 were analyzed through this retrospective, single-centre study. Of 4747 hospitalized SLE patients, 17 (0.36%, 12 females, average age 30) had CVST. Headache (88.2%) was the most common neurological symptom followed by nausea or vomiting (47.1%), c...

AIM To report a potential association of thrombosis, thrombocytopenia with iron deficiency anaemia. CASE REPORT A 43-year-old female experienced an episode of a headache, with bilateral papilledema by neurological examination, magnetic resonance venography (MRV) brain showed cerebrovenous thrombosis (CVT), iron deficiency anaemia and thrombocytopenia by blood investigations, that was treated ...

During reaction to stress caused by viral infection, RNA granules are formed in order to protect mRNA. Stress granules (SG) and processing bodies (PB) provide cell homeostasis and mRNA stability. They are formed, for example, during polio virus and MRV (mammalian orthoreovirus) infections. Some viruses, such as influenza virus and HTLV-1 (Human T-lymphotropic virus 1), block the formation of gr...
