The effects of off-vertical rotation upon the intake of tap water immediately after rotation, and upon conditioned taste aversion, were assessed in mice with the tilt of the rotation axis varying from 5 to 20 degrees from the earth-vertical. Conditioned taste aversion occurred in all mice that were rotated, but the intake of tap water was suppressed only in mice that were rotated at 15 or 20 de...

The relation between dietary antioxidant intake and primary open-angle glaucoma risk was examined in participants aged over 40 years in the Nurses' Health Study (n = 76,200) and the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (n = 40,284). They were followed biennially from 1980 and 1986, respectively, to 1996, during periods when they received an eye examination. Dietary intakes were measured repeate...

background: cardiovascular diseases refer to a group of diseases that affect the cardiovascular system principally cardiac diseases, vascular diseases of the brain and kidney and peripheral arterial diseases which are caused by various factors. considering the importance of nutrition education, especially the intake of fruits and vegetables, this study was performed to determine the effect of h...

In recent years, installation of plates in canal beds have been considered for sedimentation control and bed load reduction at canal intake. These planes, called submerged vanes, are different in dimensions. They are installed at intakes in-group with reasonable distance from each other. Presence of these vanes at intakes initiate transverse shear stress on river bed and causes sediment transpo...

this investigation aimed to assess genetics of body conformation and feed efficiency traits in a control line of rhode island red (rir) chicken taking single hatched out pedigreed 100 chicks at central avian research institute, izatnagar, india. data was analyzed by least squares analysis of variance. least squares means of chick weight (cw), body weight (bw), shank length (sl), keel length (kl...

abstract lateral intake is a hydraulic structure which is used for diversion of some portion of water from a river for the purpose of irrigation, storage and industrial. most of lateral intakes from canal are installed at canal with inclined banks which has not received the attention of the researchers in the past. since the flow discharge and sediment which enters the intake canal depends on t...
