We calculate the number of extensions of Raynaud schemes over the ring of integers of an absolutely ramified p-adic field with the trivial generic fibers by counting the rational points of the moduli space of finite flat models. Introduction Let K be a totally ramified extension of degree e over Qp for p > 2, and F be a finite field of characteristic p. We consider the constant group scheme CF ...

An excessive, non-resolving inflammatory response underlies severe COVID-19 that may have fatal outcomes. Therefore, the investigation of endogenous pathways leading to resolution inflammation is interest uncover strategies for mitigating in people with SARS-CoV-2 infection. This becomes particularly urgent individuals preexisting pathologies characterized by chronic respiratory and prone bacte...

BACKGROUND Exercise has been studied as a prognostic marker for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), as well as a tool for improving their quality of life and analyzing lung disease. In this context, the aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare variables of lung functioning. Our data included: (i) volumetric capnography (VCAP) parameters: expiratory minute volume (VE), volume of exha...

RATIONALE The study of genetic modifiers in cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease requires rigorous phenotyping. One type of genetic association study design compares polymorphisms in patients at extremes of phenotype, requiring accurate classification of pulmonary disease at varying ages. OBJECTIVE To evaluate approaches to quantify severity of pulmonary disease and their ability to discriminate...

We have studied the interactions of purified viral particles with liposomes as a model to understand the mechanism of entry of rotavirus into the cell. Liposomes, made from pure as well as mixed lipids, that contained encapsulated self-quenching concentrations of the fluorophore carboxyfluorescein (CF) were used. Rotavirus-liposome interactions were studied from the fluorescence dequenching of ...

In vitro shoot-tips of three cultivars of tropical taro (Colocasia esculenta var. esculenta (L.) Schott) were successfully cryopreserved by vitrification. Different conditioning treatments were required for each of the cultivars, while the vitrification protocol was constant for all. For the cultivars E399 and CPUK, shoot-tips from three-month-old in vitro plants grown on solidified MS were pre...

to study the effect of planting dates and genistein application on nitrogen content and nodulation of three annual medic species (medicago polymorpha cv. santiago m. rigidula cv. ragidula, and m. radiata cv. radiata), an experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 in the research farm of faculty of agriculture, shahed university, tehran. the treatments were arranged as split split plot in a rando...

[1] New laboratory thermal infrared emissivity measurements of the plagioclase solid solution series over the 1700 400 cm 1 (6–25 mm) spectral range are presented. Thermal infrared (TIR) spectral changes for fine-particulate samples (0–25 mm) are characterized for the first time under different laboratory environmental conditions: ambient (terrestrial-like), half-vacuum (Mars-like), vacuum, and...
