BackgroundLVH in hypertensive heart disease (HHD) is known to increase QRS duration while Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) could be associated with narrower than normal expected. Current diagnosis of HCM and HHD based on imaging but suffers from considerable overlap lack specific feature. We aim compare the relationship between left ventricular mass (LVM) create a new diagnostic tool identify ...

Competitive tournaments appear in sports, politics, population ecology, and animal behavior. All of these fields have developed methods for rating competitors ranking them accordingly. A tournament is intransitive if it not consistent with any ranking. Intransitive contain rock-paper-scissors type cycles. The discrete Helmholtz--Hodge decomposition (HHD) well adapted to describing tournaments. ...

Introduction: In the UK, number of people diagnosed with renal disease is on increase. As a result, there will be more in need replacement therapy (RRT). Despite mounting evidence showing that home hemodialysis (HHD) treatment clinical and cost-effective as well amendable to suit patients' lifestyle, patients choosing this dialysis modality low. The aim study explore factors influencing decisio...

In this paper, we consider the recognition problem on three classes of perfect graphs, namely, the HH-free, the HHDfree, and the Welsh-Powell opposition graphs (or WPO-graphs). In particular, we prove properties of the chordal completion of a graph and show that a modified version of the classic linear-time algorithm for testing for a perfect elimination ordering can be efficiently used to dete...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to measure absolute concentrations of phosphocreatine (PCr) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in normal, hypertrophied, and failing human heart. BACKGROUND Conflicting evidence exists on the extent of changes of high-energy phosphate metabolites in hypertrophied and failing human heart. Previous reports using phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance spect...

Aims of the study: to assess frequency symptomatic Covid-19 in home dialysis patients and its influence on number treated at units centers included French-speaking peritoneal hemodialysis Registry (RDPLF). Focus is placed by (PD) mainland France.
 Results: (HHD)the incidence 6% Belgium 4.8% France. On it 10.6% Belgium, 6.7% France, 10.8% Morocco 11.5% Tunisia. Lethality less than 5% HHD be...

Materials and methods: We investigated 148 patients that underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) due to complicated HHD between January 2000 and December 2006 at the endoscopy unit of the Department of Surgery of Atatürk University Medical School. Age, sex, indications for ERCP and endoscopic sphincterotomy (ES), ERCP findings, laboratory data, operative findings, postop...

Peptides presented by HLA-A*0201 molecules on the surface of the human breast carcinoma cell line KS24.22 after IFN-gamma induction were analyzed by the "Predict-Calibrate-Detect" approach, which combines epitope prediction and high-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. One of the predicted epitopes, MAGE-A1(278-286) (KVLEYVIKV), was found to be presented by HLA-A*0201, with an e...

Source estimates performed using a single equivalent current dipole (ECD) model for interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) which appear unifocal have proven highly accurate in neocortical epilepsies, falling within millimeters of that demonstrated by electrocorticography. Despite this success, the single ECD solution is limited, best describing sources which are temporally stable. Adapted fr...
