BACKGROUND Whether increasing use of radial access has improved percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes remains unknown. We sought to determine the relationship between increasing facility-level use of transradial percutaneous coronary intervention (TRI) and periprocedural outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS Within the National Cardiovascular Data Registry CathPCI Registry, we estimated the ris...

Trichloroetheylene (TRI) is an environmental pollutant that has been linked to congenital heart defects (CHD). Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) generation of nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in endothelial cell proliferation, which is considered essential for normal blood vessel growth and development. We hypothesized that TRI alters the balance of NO and superoxide anion (O2-)...

The expansion of triplet repeat microsatellite sequences is the molecular correlate of anticipation in a number of rare Mendelian neurodegenerative disorders. This finding prompted us to study these sequences in primary breast cancer in which there is evidence of genetic anticipation. We used a PCR/silver stain method to determine whether triplet-repeat instability (TRI) was present in DNA from...

This study illustrates possible influences of consumption of ethanol on the pharmacokinetic behaviour of inhaled trichloroethylene (TRI) in relation to biological monitoring of exposure. The results were obtained for a standard male worker of 70 kg by physiologically based pharmacokinetic modelling. Depending on the pattern of consumption of ethanol, enzyme inhibition or induction was assumed t...

This study presents a novel approach for realizing miniaturized multi layer folded tri band micro-strip band pass filter for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Worldwide interoperatability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) applications. The proposed filter consists of a pair of folded hairpin stepped impedance resonators and pair of open loop resonators to achieve tri-band performance. The size ...

The title compound, C19H17BF3P {alternative name: triphen-yl[(tri-fluoro-boran-yl)meth-yl]phosphanium}, was formed by the reaction of tri-phenyl-phosphine with potassium iodo-methyl-tri-fluoro-borate. The mol-ecule features a nearly staggered conformation along the P-C bond and a less than staggered conformation along the C-B bond. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds between the meta-phen...

The title compound, C20H47NO6Si4, was synthesized by per-O-tri-methyl-silylation of N-acetyl-d-glucosa-mine using chloro-tri-methyl-silane in the presence of hexa-methyl-disiloxane. The tri-methyl-silyl group and acetamido group are located on the same side of the pyran ring, showing an α-configuration glycoside. One of the tri-methyl-silyl groups is disordered over two orientations, with site-...

The title compound, [HP(CH3)3][IrCl4{(H3C)3P}2], consists of a tri-methyl-phospho-nium cation and a tetra-chlorido-bis-(tri-methyl-phosphane)iridate(III) anion. The anion has an octa-hedral arrangement of ligands, with the tri-methyl-phosphane groups occupying trans positions. The Ir(III) atom sits on an inversion center with one P(CH3)3 ligand and two chloride ligands in the asymmetric unit. T...
