The ducts associated with sperm transport from the testicular lobules to the Wolffian ducts in Ambystoma maculatum were examined with transmission electron microscopy. Based on the ultrastructure and historical precedence, new terminology for this network of ducts is proposed that better represents primary hypotheses of homology. Furthermore, the terminology proposed better characterizes the di...

Although the collecting duct is regarded as the primary site at which mineralocorticoids regulate renal sodium transport in the kidney, recent evidence points to the distal convoluted tubule as a possible site of mineralocorticoid action. To investigate whether mineralocorticoids regulate the expression of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter (TSC), the chief apical sodium entry pathway o...

Experimental metastatic calcification in the proximal convoluted tubules of rat kidney, produced by large doses of vitamin D, has been studied with a variety of techniques. These techniques include the examination of thin sections of Araldite-embedded material under the electron microscope, selected area electron diffraction, and several histochemical methods. Two types of mineral are found in ...

For objects in the low Earth orbit region, uncertainty atmospheric density estimation is an important source of prediction error, which critical for space traffic management activities such as satellite conjunction analysis. This paper investigates evolution error distribution presence uncertainties, are modeled using probabilistic machine learning techniques. The recently proposed “HASDM-ML,” ...

Process monitoring and control is an essential approach to improve additive manufacturing (AM) built quality. For the development of powder bed fusion (PBF) AM system, sensing process optical emission a popular approach. This because it provides rich information on melt pool condition which directly determines final part However, convoluted. And lack full understanding limits further optimal sy...

Alteration in capacity and function of proximal distal convoluted tubules kidney exposed by Molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles female rats (Stereological technique)

OBJECTIVE Applying the science of networks to quantify the discriminatory impact of the ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM transition between clinical specialties. MATERIALS AND METHODS Datasets were the Center for Medicaid and Medicare Services ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM mapping files, general equivalence mappings, and statewide Medicaid emergency department billing. Diagnoses were represented as nodes and th...

Australia has experienced a sudden and unexpected resurgence in bed bug infestations from both Cimex lectularius L. and Cimex hemipterus F. A survey in 2006 revealed that infestations had increased across the nation by an average of 4,500% since the start of the decade. In response, a multi-disciplinary approach to combat the rise of this public health pest was implemented and involved the coor...

When rat kidney slices were incubated in the presence of horseradish peroxidase, there was an energy-dependent uptake of the protein by the cells of the kidney tubules. The uptake was greatest in the proximal convoluted tubules and in the thick ascending limbs of the loops of Henle; it was abolished by cold, anoxia, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and fluoroacetate, and was more readily depressed by unfavor...
