BACKGROUND Uterine cervical cancer (UCC) is an important public health problem in Chile. Although HPV infection has been established as the main cause of UCC, little is known of its frequency and distribution in our population. AIM To determine the presence and frequency of viral genotypes in uterine cervical specimens with preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions. MATERIAL AND METHODS Two nest...

OBJECTIVE Tissue engineering of viable, autologous cardiovascular replacements with the potential to grow, repair and remodel represents an attractive approach to overcome the shortcomings of available replacements for the repair of congenital cardiac defects. Currently, vascular myofibroblast cells represent an established cell source for cardiovascular tissue engineering. Cell isolation requi...

In 1995, Dell and Teta published a cohort mortality study of asbestos molding compound workers at a Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) plastics manufacturing plant in Bound Brook, New Jersey. They reported that the factory workers were exposed to "asbestos (mostly chrysotile)," implying that the asbestos used at the Bound Brook plant occasionally contained amphiboles. However, UCC statements and t...

This paper presents a compact cluster computer, called “UCC (Ubiquitous Computing Cluster)”, which provides a cost-effective prototyping environment for design and test of ubiquitous computing applications. We achieve extremely small size, low power consumption and low cost by employing COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) embedded CPUs. We also present an application of UCC to fingerprint verificat...

Purpose The influence of website quality on online compulsive buying behavior (OCBB) in the context shopping based usage a credit card (UCC) and impulsive (OIBB) was investigated this study. Design/methodology/approach authors used research model to examine relationships between study components as per prescription. For investigation, an survey form obtain primary data from 350 respondents soci...

Unitary coupled cluster (UCC) approaches are an appealing route to utilizing quantum hardware perform chemistry calculations, as computers can in principle UCC calculations a polynomially scaling fashion, compared with the exponential required on classical computers. Current noisy intermediate scale limited by both capacity number of logical qubits and noise introduced deep circuits for using v...

It is believed that a transition toward more sustainable transport will be cornerstone of plans to reduce global emissions. Two services show great potential improve the sustainability urban are Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) and Urban Consolidation Centers (UCC): MaaS focused on people UCC freight transport. both involve network actors, present clear vision for sustainability, can applied in con...
