The HEGRA CT-System was used to search for TeV gammarays from the microquasar and supernova remnant combination SS433/W50 over the 1998 and 1999 observing seasons, resulting in about 20 hours of useful data. An analysis of various extended sources of location guided by X-Ray observations reveals no evidence for TeV emission at photon energies above 1 TeV, with resulting 99% upper limits in the ...

The unique object SS433 is brieey reviewed with particular reference to the part played by the stellar wind ejected by the early type companion star. The aims of this observational campaign are described and the theory of the mass loss rate measurements explained. VLBA 1.6 GHz maps are presented as well as preliminary 23 GHz VLA and MERLIN maps. Mass loss rates of around 510 ?6 M yr ?1 are foun...

From October 1987 to December 1990, 101 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were randomized to be transplanted in first complete remission (CR1). Preparative regimen including Cytoxan (120 mg/kg) with total body irradiation (CYTBI) (N = 50) or busulfan (16 mg/kg) (BUSCY) (N = 51) was followed by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from an HLA-identical sibling. Mean time between...

Tension Pneumothorax Tension pneumothorax occurs when a one-way valve develops in the injured lung and allows entry of air into the pleural space during inspiration without being able to escape during expiration. Tension physiology occurs when the increased intrathoracic pressure (15 to 20 mm Hg) limits the return of venous blood flow from the body to the right heart and compresses the great ve...

Background: It has been argued that unprecedented degree of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci polymorphism within a population is required to avoid the devastating effects of infectious diseases. The present study was conducted to determine the associations between some of HLA class I genes and the outcome of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Methods: Using sequential sampling method, 64 indi...
