the sequestration of rat leukocytes and bone marrow cells by the lung vasculature was studied using an isolated perfused rat lung preparation. the passage of latex particles of 7.6 µm in diameter and non-hematopoietic cells through the lung blood vessels was also studied. leukocytes and bone marrow cells were reversibly sequestered from circulation, whereas, latex particles and non-hematopoieti...

Deep learning artificial intelligence technology, which has the advantages of nonlinear mapping ability, massive information extraction spatial-temporal modeling and so on, provides new ideas methods for further improving accuracy weather climate extreme event prediction. A transfer CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) classification model is established to classify circulation patterns, along w...

1. introduction the position of iran in the subtropical region that has made its arid and semiarid climate and the topographic diversity changes this trend of climate. therefore, climate hazards such as frost, flood, dust storm, drought, temperature anomalies, heavy rainfall, avalanches, snow, sleet, etc occur in iran. the northwest of iran experiences the above conditions following the arrival...

The influence of synoptic circulation patterns on surface ozone concentrations at three monitoring sites in southern Sweden was investigated for the spring (April–May) and summer (June–August) periods 1990–2005. Synoptic circulation patterns were classified into six groups based on the Lamb Weather Types (LWTs). The analyses show that the anticyclonic weather pattern (A) and the directional flo...

Nine young adults (median age 19.5 years) who suffered from amaurosis fugax (AF) are described. The attacks of AF were short in duration and preceded by premonitory symptoms in five cases and by a migrainous headache in two. In five patients the visual loss progressed in a lacunar pattern unlike the 'curtain' pattern characteristic of AF in older patients. Investigation revealed no evidence of ...

The 3D structures of the free oscillations of an adiabatic and hydrostatic atmosphere around a basic state at rest were used as a physical filtering for atmospheric data. This filtering procedure allows for the consideration of the three primitive variables (u, y, f) over the whole atmosphere simultaneously. Accordingly, the computed statistics do not simply rely on the information provided by ...

This article investigates visitor circulation and behaviors within a gallery of primate exhibits in relation to their possible implications for nonhuman animal welfare. When entering a primate house, the majority of visitors (84%) turned right, a pattern upheld throughout all times of the day. These findings demonstrate the existence of the "right-turn" principle, a concept previously identifie...

The work examines the seasonality and large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns associated with debris-flow occurrence in the Trentino–Alto Adige region (eastern Italian Alps). Analysis is based on classification algorithms applied to a uniquely dense archive of debris flows and hourly rain gauge precipitation series covering the period 2000–2009. Results highlight the seasonal and synoptic ...
