Homozygous 8 thalassemic mice received 50 U (1,660 U/kg) of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo) 5 days a week for 2 weeks. Hemoglobin increased from 9.2 2 0.6 g/dL to 10.5 f 0.4 g/dL (P = .002) and hematocrit increased from 29.2% f 0.9% to 34.1% f 1.9% (P = .0014). The p minor/a globin chain synthesis ratio increased slightly but significantly between day -4 (0.75 f 0.07) and day 4 (0.81 f...

The effect of Cerium and Cobalt substitution in Zinc ferrites with respect to their electrical and magnetic properties has been investigated in this paper. The nanoparticles of Zn1-x-y Cex Coy Fe2O4 ( x = 0.012, 0014, 0.016, 0.018; y = 0.01, 0.001, 0014, 0.016) is prepared by sol gel route and sintered in a microwave furnace. The nano size, structure and composition of Ce-Co doped Zinc ferrite ...

We investigated the prognostic value of p16(INK4a) immunocytochemistry (ICC) analysis in 126 cases of newly diagnosed childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The incidence of negative p16(INK4a) ICC was 38.1% and was more frequent in T-lineage ALL. Overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were significantly higher in patients with positive p16(INK4a) ICC than in patients with n...

Objective To determine the impact of ultrasound (US) intrinsic limitation to assess aortitis versus FDG-PET/CT in patients with US-proven giant cell arteritis (GCA) and identify factors associated aortic involvement. Methods Retrospective observational study referred US fast-track clinics at two academic centres over a 4-year period. Only GCA confirmed by were included. Temporal arteries (TA) e...

The location of the physiological transpeptidase appears to be the plasma membrane [4]. An exocellular enzyme has been isolated from Streptomyces R6 1 and shown to have DD-carboxypeptidase and transpeptidase activities [ S-81. The enzyme was sh...

The Small Target Visibility model used in road lighting design is based on a strong simplification of the driving task. To specify the driver’s visibility needs in a way consistent with state-of-the-art lighting engineering practice, a field experiment was designed in order to investigate target detection performances, comparing driver and passenger status conditions. Sixteen target visibility ...
