The complete amino acid sequence of protease inhibitor BWI-4a from buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) seeds, consisting of 67 amino acid residues with a single disulfide bond, has been established by Edman degradation in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Its N terminus is blocked by a pyroglutamic acid residue. Mass spectrometric...

In this paper we present the BandWidth Inheritance (BWI) protocol, a new strategy for scheduling real-time tasks in dynamic systems, which extends the resource reservation framework to systems where tasks can interact through shared resources. The proposed protocol provides temporal isolation between independent groups of tasks, and enables a schedulability analysis for guaranteeing the perform...

Investigation of the clinical and pathogenesis aspects of osteoarthritis in combinations with diabetes mellitus type 2. Were studied 80 patients with osteoarthritis, 52 of them has a comorbidity disease such as diabetes mellitus type 2. Were investigated the clinical and radiological signs of disease severity, the levels of cytokines, NO, leptin, and CRP in serum, and levels of blood glucose, a...

background: admission of low birth-weight (lbw) neonates in neonatal intensive care unit (nicu) causes their deprivation of tactile and sensory stimulation. objective: the purpose of this study was to evaluate efficacy of body massage on growth parameters (weight, height and head circumference) gain velocity of lbw in yazd, iran. materials and methods: a randomized clinical trial study was cond...

The Multiprocessor Bandwidth Inheritance (M-BWI) is a synchronisation protocol for coordinating mutually exclusive access to critical sections in multi-processor real-time systems. It combines resource reservations techniques with the priority inheritance access protocol, so to guarantee temporal isolation between non-interacting tasks and real-time execution. In the original paper, the authors...

background: in this study, we examined the status of korean women’s alcohol consumption and identified the physical changes they undergo according to the level of consumption. the results of this study may thus be used as raw data to effectively control women’ drinking habits. methods: this study consists of a secondary analysis using data from female participants in the 6 th korea national hea...

objective(s) the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of ramadan fasting and weight-lifting training on plasma volume, glucose, and lipids profile of male weight-lifter. materials and methods forty male weight-lifters were recruited and divided into 4 groups (n=10 each) and as the following groups: control (c), fasting (f), training (t) and fasting-training (f-t). the t and f...
