I SUMMARY. The object of the present investigation is to propose and study a class I of nonparametric tests for the multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) problem relating to complete two way layouts. In this context, the concept of rank-permuta-I I I .-tions for multidimensional interchangeability is developed, and the same is incorporated in the formulation of a class of genuinely distrib...

Plant extracts are extensively researched as a source of green corrosion inhibitors. Herein, we report on a highly efficient and thermally stable corrosion inhibitor from the stem extract of high-altitude shrub Berberis aristata. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of the extract was tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 for the corrosion protection of mild steel (MS) by using gravimetric and electrochemi...

Infective endocarditis (IE) in people who inject drugs (PWID) is an emergent public health problem. The purpose of this study was to investigate IE PWID and compare it with non-PWID patients. Two prospective cohort studies (ICE-PCS ICE-Plus databases, encompassing 8,112 episodes from 2000 2006 2008 2012, 64 34 sites 28 18 countries, respectively). Outcomes were compared between patients IE. Log...

The DNA templates containing immediate early (IE) genes of human cytomegalovirus (CMV) were transcribed in vitro by using a HeLa cell extract. When IE region 1, 2, and 3 were used, transcription was detected qualitatively only from IE region 1. Transcription was detected with DNA representing IE region 2 when the IE region 1 promoter was not present. DNA sequence analysis of the upstream regula...

BACKGROUND Totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) using intracorporeal anastomosis has gradually developed due to advancements in laparoscopic surgical instruments. However, totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) with intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy (IE) is still uncommon because of technical difficulties. Herein, we evaluated various types of IE after TLTG in terms of the tec...
