In this work we study the monodromy group of covers $\varphi \circ \psi$ curves \linebreak $\mathcal{Y}\xrightarrow {\quad {\psi}} \mathcal{X} \xrightarrow \varphi} \mathbb{P}^{1}$, where $\psi$ is a $q$-fold cyclic \'etale cover and $\varphi$ totally ramified $p$-fold cover, with $p$ $q$ different prime numbers odd. We show that Galois $\mathcal{G}$ closure $\mathcal{Z}$ form $ \mathcal{G} = \...

The 6 H -[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4- e ]thieno[3,2- b ]indole-flanked para -azaquinodimethane ( p -AQM)-based polymer semiconductors PQ-1 and PQ-2 are rationally designed through a ?-extended aromatic-quinoidal design strategy.

Aberration during the development of the central nervous system (CNS) due to environmental factors underlies a variety of adverse developmental outcomes. Paraquat (PQ) is a widely studied neurotoxicant that perturbs the normal structure/function of adult CNS. Yet, the impacts of PQ exposure on the developing CNS remain unclear. miRNAs represent a class of small non-coding RNA molecules involved...

When properly used, paraquat (PQ) is a widely used bipyridil herbicide with a good safety record. Most cases of PQ poisoning result from intentional ingestion, with death resulting from hypoxemia secondary to lung fibrosis in moderate to severe poisonings. With high ingestion volumes (>50 mL of a 20% wt/vol formulation), death results from multiple organ failure and cardiovascular collapse with...

The aim of this study was to compare the psychometric properties (normal distribution values, reliabilities and factor structure) of the Zuckerman-Kuhlman-Aluja Personality Questionnaire (ZKA-PQ) and the Temperament and Character Inventory revised (TCI-R). The total sample consisted of 482 subjects (53.1% men and 46.9% women) from diverse age. Results showed somewhat better psychometric propert...

Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is an antioxidant-activated transcription factor that recently emerged as a critical regulator of cellular defense against oxidative and inflammatory lesions. Resveratrol (Res) is a natural phytoalexin that exhibits multiple therapeutic potentials, including antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects in animals. Paraquat (PQ) is the second mos...

BACKGROUND To evaluate the efficacy of combined treatment with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) transplantation and methylprednisolone (MP) to treat paraquat (PQ)-induced acute lung injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 102 female rats were randomly divided into five groups: PQ, BMSC, MP, BMSC + MP and normal control. After 14 days of PQ poisoning, the survival of rats, wet/dry wei...

BACKGROUND Paraquat (PQ) is a non-selective and fast-acting contact herbicide which has been widely used in developing countries. Hyperamylasemia was reported in patients with PQ poisoning. This study investigated the predictive value and clinical characteristics of hyperamylasemia in patients with PQ poisoning. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 87 patients with acute PQ poisoning admitt...
