This study marks a significant step toward the future development of river discharges forecasted in real time for flash flood early warning system (EWS) disaster prevention frameworks Chugoku region Japan, and presumably worldwide. To reduce impacts with EWSs, accurate integrated hydrometeorological real-time models predicting extreme water levels are needed, but they not satisfactorily due to ...

PURPOSE Osteosarcoma (OS) and skeletal Ewing's sarcoma (EWS), the most common pediatric primary bone tumors, are aggressive malignancies with a tendency for early pulmonary metastasis. Advances in therapy have increased the overall 5-year survival to approximately 70%; however, patients who relapse often fail to respond to salvage therapy. Thus, more effective adjuvant chemotherapy is needed fo...

Abstract. In this study, the detection and characteristics of dry/wet spells (defined as episodes when precipitation is abnormally low or high compared to usual climatology) drawn from several datasets are for Senegal. Here, four based on satellite data (TRMM-3B42 V7, CMORPH V1.0, TAMSAT V3, CHIRPS V2. 0), two reanalysis products (NCEP-CFSR ERA5), three rain gauge observations (CPC Unified V1.0...

The triggering threshold is one of the most important parameters for landslide early warning systems (EWSs) at slope scale. In present work, a velocity recommended an system Gapa in Southwest China, which was reactivated by impoundment large reservoir behind Jinping’s first dam. Based on GNSS monitoring data over last five years, defined novel method, implemented forward and reverse double movi...

In Sub-Saharan Africa analysis tools and models based on meteorological satellites data have been developed within different national and international cooperation initiatives, with the aim of allowing a better monitoring of the cropping season. In most cases, the software was a standalone application and the upgrading, in terms of analysis functions, database and hardware maintenance, was diff...

conclusions pnet/ews should be included in the differential diagnosis of renal tumors in symptomatic young adults. patients with localised pnet/ews treated with a combination of surgery and chemotherapy have an excellent chance of long-term survival, as in the case we have presented. introduction primitive neuroectodermal tumor (pnet)/ewing’s sarcoma (ews) belongs to a family of neoplasms that ...

The poor prognosis of Ewing's sarcoma (EWS), together with its high lethal recurrence rate and the side‑effects of current treatments, call for novel targeted therapies with greater curative effectiveness and substantially reduced side‑effects. The oncogenic chimeric protein EWS/FLI1 is the key malignancy driver in most EWSs, regulating numerous target genes, many of which influence cell cycle ...

Evaluating affective interfaces in order to provide input for designers is a challenge for the CHI community. One question is to what extent traditional evaluation methods, used for evaluating traditional usability, are applicable at all, and if they need revision. The purpose of this project was to gain an understanding in how applicable traditional usability evaluation methods are in understa...

In Niger (a fully Sahelian country), the use of climate information is one early warning strategies (EWSs) for reducing socio-economic vulnerabilities in farmer communities. It helps farmers to better anticipate risks and choose timely alternative options that can allow them generate more profit. This study assesses impacts services benefit end-users. Individual surveys focus groups were conduc...

Background There is a growing concern with the potential for terrorist use of biological weapons (bioweapons) to cause civilian harm (1–5) This concern has been focused around two assumptions: that a terrorist is most likely to effectively disperse bioweapons through air (3), and that we must be prepared to address terrorist use of bioweapons through treatment of affected individuals, with emph...
