The suppressor of Hairy-wing [SU(HW)] binding region disrupts communication between a large number of enhancers and promoters and protects transgenes from chromosomal position effects. These properties classify the SU(HW) binding region as an insulator. While enhancers are blocked in a general manner, protection from repressors appears to be more variable. In these studies, we address whether r...

Eighty dentate students participated as a study group and another 74 as a control group. The aim was to determine a possibility to reconstruct maxillary frontal teeth dimensions by use of certain hard palate dimensions. The height (IH) and the incisal (IW), contact point (CtW) and cervical width (CW) of maxillary central incisors (MCI), hamular width (HW) and the distance between the incisive p...

Most nosocomial infections are thought to be transmitted by the hands of health care workers. The aim of this work was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of hand washing among health care workers (HCW) in Ain-Shams University hospitals and to investigate the presence of the necessary facilities and supplies required for hand washing (HW) in ten wards. A cross-sectional descriptive a...

Sleep impairment is highly prevalent in night shift workers, but evidence on the association of former work (NSW) and its metrics (duration frequency) relation to sleep complaints lacking. We evaluated current NSW with chronic insomnia or circadian rhythm disorder a sample general worker (GW) population hospital workers (HW) Austria. Information sleep, history, sociodemographic, lifestyle facto...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of 20-day litter weight on behavior and heart rate variability (HRV) of piglets under stress. METHODS Forty four original litters were categorized as high litter weight (HW) litters (n = 22) and low litter weight (LW) litters (n = 22) by 20-day litter weight. From each original HW litter, three males and three females were ra...

OBJECTIVES The implantable continuous-flow left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) HeartMate II (HM II) and HeartWare HVAD (HW) underwent design modifications. The impact of these changes on life-threatening pump malfunctions was evaluated. METHODS We retrospectively analysed pump malfunctions due to thrombosis or cable damage in patients supported with primarily implanted HM II (n = 191) and...

LARGE proportion of the X chromosome deficiencies maintained A in stock at this laboratory are balanced over In(~)dl-qg, y Hw. When such deficiencies were examined cytologically, it was frequently noticed, especially when the chromosomes were unpaired, that there was some departure from the normal salivary gland chromosome banding of the tip region of the X carrying Hw. Since such material was ...

With rapid urbanization, population growth and anthropogenic activities, an increasing number of major cities across the globe are facing severe urban heat islands (UHI). UHI can cause complex impacts on environment human health, it may bring more effects under heatwave (HW) conditions. In this paper, a holistic review is conducted to articulate findings synergies between HW corresponding mitig...

The body conformation traits, which support higher production and longer productive life are very important to breed future dairy buffaloes. Bayesian multiple-trait analysis was performed in biometric traits of Murrah buffaloes estimate the (co)variance components using an animal model Gibbs sampling. included fixed effects parity, season calving, period age group at time recording traits.

Abstract: Dieses Paper beschreibt eine Untersuchung verschiedener HW/SW-Partitionierungen am Beispiel des LonTalk -Protokollstacks. Ausgehend von einer maximalen Softwareimplementierung wird einerseits eine Verlagerung der Funktionalität von Softin Hardware, andererseits eine Veränderung der HW/SW-Schnittstelle und der Kommunikations-Architektur untersucht. Zur Evaluation wurde ein Altera Excal...
