patients treated with streptokinase, one of seven treated with Arvin, and two of seven given heparin. Streptokinase was shown to cause extensive dissolution of thrombi in all but two of the 12 patients studied, sometimes within 12 hours but in one patient not until after six days of continuous infusion. Methods and aims of laboratory control were discussed (Kakkar et al, 1969) and the side effe...

With the development of robotic technology, the application areas of robots have been greatly widened. The robots may serve as assistants (Elena et al., 2004), rescuers (Robert & Arvin, 2003) and explorers (Schenker et al., 2003). In many cases a multi-robot system has to be used, since many tasks cannot be completed with a single robot and multi-robot system can finish the tasks much more effi...

Psychotherapy with adjunctive hypnosis is known to be an effective approach for the treatment of viral warts. There is an increasing clinical and scientific literature that illustrates the successful use of psychotherapeutic treatment with and without hypnosis in the reduction or elimination of viral warts (Bloch, 1927; Chandrasena, 1982; Clawson & Swade, 1975; Dreaper, 1978; Ewin, 1992; Ewin, ...

We report the results of two independent selection experiments that have exposed distinct populations of Drosophila melanogaster to different forms of thermal selection. A recombinant population derived from Arvin California and Zimbabwe isofemale lines was exposed to laboratory natural selection at two temperatures (T(AZ): 18°C and 28°C). Microsatellite mapping identified quantitative trait lo...
