In Section 1.3 of the paper, we presented an unsteady, diffusion-free model to calculate species concentrations and shock speeds in ITP. We also showed (in Figure 2 of paper) comparison of our model with detailed 1-dimensional simulations using SPRESSO [1,2]. Here we describe the numerical procedure to calculate species concentrations in different ITP zones using our diffusionfree model. In Sec...

Recent insights from string theory and supergravity on the macroscopic and the microscopic description of black hole entropy are discussed. To be published in the proceedings of the Symposium in honor of the 70th birthday of Julius Wess, München, 10-11 January, 2005.

The characteristics of the partial nuclear muon capture with massive left-handed Dirac neutrino and relativistic component of the muon wave function have been derived. The multipole amplitudes are given as a function of neutrino mass parameter and reduced nuclear matrix elements which are modified by the small component of the muon wave function. As an example, the capture rate, asymmetry and p...

The zero-trans transport of deoxycytidine and 1-/3-Darabinofuranosylcytosine was determined in cultured No vikoff rat hepatoma cells that had been depleted of adenosine 5 -triphosphate by preincubation in glucose-free medium containing KCN and iodoacetate and thus did not phosphorylate the substrates. Transport of both nucleosides was so rapid that the ¡ntracellularconcentration approached tha...

After describing the criterion scores which have been used to assess behavior in the interrupted task paradigm (ITP), a summary of the research literature is presented. ITP as a source of data for evaluating the psychoanalytic theory of repression is found not to allow for the separation of learning and retention effects, and so is not well suited to the study of repression. Similarly, the medi...

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is commonly encountered in clinical practice. In 1996 the American Society of Hematology published a landmark guidance paper designed to assist clinicians in the management of this disorder. Since 1996 there have been numerous advances in the management of both adult and pediatric ITP. These changes mandated an update in the guidelines. This guideline uses a rigoro...

In this paper, we describe a patient with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) secondary to endometriosis. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case presenting such an association. Surgical eradication of the endometriosis was the only effective treatment for the thrombocytopenia. The pathogenic connection between both disorders seems to be an altered immune function.

The effective equations of motion for low-frequency mean gauge fields in the Abelian Higgs model are investigated in the presence of a scalar condensate, near the high temperature equilibrium. We determine the current induced by an inhomogeneous background gauge field in the linear response approximation up to O(e), assuming adiabatic variation of the scalar fields. The physical degrees of free...

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in adults is an acquired chronic immune-mediated disorder defined by isolated thrombocytopenia. In recent years, an improved understanding of the pathophysiology of ITP has been achieved and it is now accepted that the disorder is due to increased platelet destruction and decreased platelet production from megakary-ocytes. Thrombopoietin (TPO)-receptor agonists (ro...
