Sustained attention is an essential behavior in life, but often leads to performance decrements with time. Computational accounts of sustained suggest this due brief disruptions goal-directed processing, or microlapses. Decreases gamma spectral power are a potential candidate for indexing microlapses and discriminating between low high performers tasks, while increases beta, alpha, theta expect...

The differential equation for the fourth-order statistical moment of the field of a plane wave propagating in a two dimensional random medium is solved numerically. Results are presented for the scintillation index when the index-of-refraction correlation function of the medium is Gaussian and gamma (ratio of diffraction length to scattering length) is 50. It is pointed out that the solution ha...

Although interferon-gamma, interleukin-10, and adiponectin are key immunopathogenesis mediators of tuberculosis, their association with clinical manifestations of early stage disease is inconclusive. We determined interferon-gamma, interleukin-10, and adiponectin levels in clinically and phenotypically well-characterised non-substance using new pulmonary tuberculosis patients (n = 13) and contr...

background: the study of rheological properties of blood has special interest since it is a circulating fluid exposed to shear rates during its life time. this work aims to investigate the influence of whole body gamma irradiation on the rheological properties of rat’s blood. the applied shear rate was from 12 to 375 s-1. low shear viscosity (up to 100 s-1) depends mainly on the erythrocytes ag...

Background: Man-made  radionuclides, which are present in environment, have been created by human activities and added to the inventory of natural radionuclides for example 3H, 131I, 129I, 137Cs, 90Sr and 239Pu, in spite of the amount added is little compared to natural quantities. The aim of this study is to estimate the levels of radiological doses in the soil samples collected from different...
