in several parts of the world, important yield losses are caused to faba bean due to attack by the black bean aphid aphis fabae scopoli. although resistance could be a good alternative to chemical control, its genetic basis is still largely unknown; and its phenotypic expression is still poorly described, making crucial the permanent evaluation of genetic resources available in different countr...

detection and modification of the risk factors of stroke may be the most effective strategy for preventing its often irreversible consequences. a longitudinal prospective study was implemented to evaluate the effect of several risk factors on the course of cerebrovascular disease. the study groups were composed of 3s8 normal volunteers, and 308 patients with transient ischemic attacks. the two ...

our aim was to report techniques and our experience in one-stage angioplasty and stenting of ostium of left common carotid and left internal carotid arteries in an octogenarian man with transient ischemic attack, who was completely recovered from neurologic insults short time after the procedure. an 81-year-old man presented with a transient ischemic attack. neurologic examination showed left s...

This study investigated the hydration, rheology, and diffusion resistance of cement pastes involving up to 0.09 wt% graphene oxide (GO) under constant exposure hydrochloric (HCl) acid for four weeks. Samples containing GO revealed a reduction in mass loss sectional area when compared control sample without any GO, highlighting potential inclusion improving matrix attack. While higher dosages re...

This work investigates the sulfate and chloride resistance of cement composites (mortar concrete) manufactured using electrolyzed water. Control water-based were prepared distilled water 30 min water, respectively. These exposed to 5% Na2SO4, 3.5% NaCl, a combined mixture Na2SO4 NaCl solution for 200 days. Additionally, rebar reinforced control samples ambient air 180 days, their corrosion pote...
