Orthorhombic Li x FePO 4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) system has attracted much attention for its application as a high power cathode material in lithium ion batteries. [ 1 ] Although the performance of this material has been greatly improved by cation doping, surface coating and size reduction, [ 2–4 ] the fundamental phase transformation mechanisms accompanying lithiation/delithiation are still controversial....

The purpose of this study was to establish normative articulation functions for the Hirsh recordings of the CID W-22 word lists and te Rush Hughes recordings of the PB-50 word lists as recorded on the VA compact disc. Twenty-four young adults with normal hearing listened to both sets of materials presented in quiet at 12 levels (0-56 dB HL). Presentation levels on average needed to be 10 dB hig...

The Abl kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate (STI571) has significant and rapid antileukemic activity in Philadelphia chromosome/Bcr-Abl–positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph ALL) but such activity is usually of short duration except for a small proportion of patients. To determine the prognostic significance of early Bcr-Abl levels and changes in peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM), s...

The transfer of Pb from the soil to crops is a serious food hygiene security problem in China because of industrial, agricultural, and historical contamination. In this study, the characteristics of exogenous Pb transfer from 17 Chinese soils to a popular wheat variety (Xiaoyan 22) were investigated. In addition, bioaccumulation prediction models of Pb in grain were obtained based on soil prope...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The efficacy of phosphate binders is difficult to be estimated clinically. This study analyzes the changes in serum phosphate and urinary phosphate excretion after the prescription of phosphate binders (PB) in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 4-5 pre-dialysis, and the usefulness of the ratio between total urinary phosphate and protein catabolic rate (Pu/PCR) for es...

This study tested the hypothesis that repeated exposure to low levels of sarin, pyridostigmine bromide (PB) or their combination, at doses equivalent to those possibly experienced by veterans of the 1991 Persian Gulf War, could lead to persistent or delayed autonomic effects and thus help to explain the cause of clinical findings in this population. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated for 3 w...

OBJECTIVE Extreme drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (XDR-PA) with decreased susceptibility to polymyxin B (PB) has emerged in Singapore, causing infections in immunocompromised hosts. Combination therapy may be the only viable therapeutic option until new antibiotics become available. The objective of this study is to assess the in vitro activity of various antibiotics against local XDR-PA ...
