We report product distributions from the photodissociation of I2(OCS)n (n ) 1-26) cluster ions at 790 and 395 nm and discuss implications concerning the structure of these clusters. The experimental results are paralleled by a theoretical investigation of I2(OCS)n structures. The 790 and 395 nm transitions in I2 access dissociative excited states that correlate with the I+ I(P3/2) and I+ I*(P1/...

Abstract. Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a rapidly growing field of research for its potential to study brain development in utero. However, in contrast to adult studies automatic brain extraction and orientation is not yet solved, but remains challenging in wide field of view raw fetal MRI volumes. This has limited research to small scale studies. This paper presents an automatic fe...

IMPORTANCE Several studies have reported antidepressant effects of anti-inflammatory treatment; however, the results have been conflicting and detrimental adverse effects may contraindicate the use of anti-inflammatory agents. OBJECTIVE To systematically review the antidepressant and possible adverse effects of anti-inflammatory interventions. DATA SOURCES Trials published prior to December...

BACKGROUND There is a heightened interest in plant-based diets for cardiovascular disease prevention. Although plant protein is thought to mediate such prevention through modifying blood lipids, the effect of plant protein in specific substitution for animal protein on blood lipids remains unclear. To assess the effect of this substitution on established lipid targets for cardiovascular risk re...

BACKGROUND Newcastle disease (ND) is a highly infectious disease causing considerable economic losses to poultry farmers worldwide. Conventional vaccine delivery methods are not suitable for smallholder and rural poultry producers, and thus appropriate vaccination methods need to be sought. This study was carried out with the main objective of evaluating the efficacy of ND I2 vaccine delivered ...

Aim: The aim of this review was to systematically assess and report the effectiveness chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash in preventing plaque accumulation gingivitis patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. Material Methods: prepared according Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) guidelines registered under PROSPERO database (CRD42020170776). Four electronic databases were sea...

Two constructs encoding the human micro-opioid receptor (hMOR) fused at its C terminus to either one of two Galpha subunits, Galpha(o1) (hMOR-Galpha(o1)) and Galpha(i2) (hMOR-Galpha(i2)), were expressed in Escherichia coli at levels suitable for pharmacological studies (0.4-0.5 pmol/mg). Receptors fused to Galpha(o1) or to Galpha(i2) maintained high-affinity binding of the antagonist diprenorph...

The articles [8], [11], [10], [5], [1], [7], [12], [4], [3], [2], [9], and [6] provide the notation and terminology for this paper. In this paper i, j, k, k1, k2, n, m, i1, i2, j1, j2 are natural numbers. Let us consider i1, i2. We say that i1 and i2 are adjacent if and only if: (Def. 1) i2 = i1 + 1 or i1 = i2 + 1. One can prove the following propositions: (1) For all i1, i2 such that i1 and i2...
