Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), also known as insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, is a chronic immune mediated disease that is characterized by selective loss of insulin producing β cells of the pancreatic islets in genetically susceptible subjects . The majority (95%) of cases are attributable to an autoimmune-mediated destruction of β cells (type 1a) while a small minority (5%) of cases resu...

Avian influenza A (H7N9) virus, the latest avian influenza virus strain was once considered a relatively rare cause of infection and low pathogenic. This novel virus spreading among three cases was firstly reported on 31 March 2013 in eastern China. By 31 March 2013, the number of laboratory-confirmed influenza H7N9 virus infections reached 132, with 37 deaths. There are age and gender differen...

Objectives To assess the children India. Methods We conducted this observational study Tertiary care center North translated and culturally adapted CAREGIVER QUESTIONNAIRE [1] into Hindi administered it to 145 caregivers of patien...

1. Central mechanisms contributing to cerebellar tremor were studied in three Cebus monkeys who were trained to return their arm rapidly to a target region after it was displaced by a perturbation applied to a handle. Cooling through cryoprobe sheaths implanted alongside the dentate and interpositus nuclei resulted in a series of oscillations (tremor) following the perturbation. 2. During progr...

Introduction: Type B1 CAIs are a major type of refractory inclusion in CV3 carbonaceous chondrites. An intriguing feature of fassaite in many Type B1 inclusions is complex zoning within single crystals. Seen in backscattered electron images (BEIs), the zoning reflects irregular, sometimes patchy, distributions of TiO2 and correlated and anticorrelated oxides; this zoning is not synonymous with ...

A phenol aqueous emulsion allows the reassociation of DNA a t temperatures from 6 to 68 "C. This phenol emulsion reassociation technique (PERT) also promotes the very rapid reassociation of DNA. E . coli and human DNAs a t a concentration of 4 pg/mL reacted a t room temperature with the P E R T reassociate many thousand times faster than under the standard conditions of 0.18 M Na+, 60 O C . Sol...

Med., 16:21-29. 1A simulation model that is applicable to infectious and non-infectious disease is proposed. This paper describes a model for simulation of infectious and non-infectious disease processes in dynamic populations, and compares its behavior t...

Received February 7, 1996 Revised Manuscript Received August 12, 1996 Recently, 31P NMR has been introduced as a powerful tool for the elucidation of the different types of phenolic, alcoholic, and carboxylic structures that are present in lignins.1,2 It was shown that the reaction of 1,3,2dioxaphospholanyl chloride2,3 or 2-chloro-4,4,5,5-tetramethyldioxaphospholane4,5 (I) with the above labile...
