Introduction: insulin resistance (IR) promotes the progression of fibrosis and diminishes response to treatment in patients with hepatitis C. Recently, Sydney’s index (includes IR) has been proposed as a non-invasive method for the prediction of fibrosis. Objective: to assess the usefulness of Sydney’s index for the prediction of advanced fibrosis (F3-F4) or absence of significant fibrosis (F0-...

ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS High precision difference astrometry applied to the triplet of S5 radio sources B1803+784/Q1928+738/B2007+777 Abstract. We determined the separations of the radio sources in the triangle formed by the BL Lac objects 1803+784 and 2007+777, and the QSO 1928+738 from in-tercontinental interferometric observations carried out in November 1991 at the frequencies of 2.3 and...

INTRODUCTION The complex electronic systems being designed today often require mixed technologies to incorporate the most efficient balance of performance, speed, power, and cost. In order for one technology to communicate with the other, an interface is needed. One of the most common mix of technologies seen today is high speed ECL with the slower, but very popular TTL and CMOS. To make this i...

We determined the separations of the radio sources in the triangle formed by the BL Lac objects 1803+784 and 2007+777, and the QSO 1928+738 from in-tercontinental interferometric observations carried out in November 1991 at the frequencies of 2.3 and 8.4 GHz. Difference phase-delay astrometry yielded the following separations: ∆α (1803+784)−(1928+738) =–1 h 27 m 2.

Exposure of Atlantic salmon smolts to estrogenic compounds is shown to compromise several aspects of smolt development. We sought to determine the underlying endocrine mechanisms of estrogen impacts on the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) axis. Smolts in freshwater (FW) were either injected 3 times over 10 days with 2 μgg(-1) 17β-estradiol (E2) or 150μgg(-1) 4-nonylpheno...
