T hrombosis within the circuit of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is a major complication imparting significant morbidity and mortality. Recent management algorithms emphasize anticoagulation or surgery for LVAD thrombosis, depending on clinical presentation. 1 We report a case of thrombotic LVAD outflow cannula obstruction treated successfully with percutaneous endovascular stenting. A...

according to the global fuel crisis, it seems necessary to use alternative fuel instead of gasoline. since the natural gas is cheaper, have higher frequency than gasoline and less pollution, it is a suitable fuel. many efforts have been done in order to replace gasoline with natural gas. one of the methods is to inject natural gas and gasoline fuel simultaneously and to use the benefits of both...

Studies of the response of RAW264.7 cells (RAW) to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were carried out to determine why these cells do not demonstrate the prostaglandin (PG)dependent autocrine regulation of tumor necrosis factor(TNF) secretion observed in primary resident peritoneal macrophages (RPMs). The major cyclooxygenase (COX) product of LPS-stimulated RAW was PGD 2 , with lesser amounts of PGE 2 ....

Abstract The power output of a straight-bladed H-rotor Darrieus vertical axis wind turbine (HDVAWT) is explored in this article. comparisons are performed between the NACA0018 airfoil and series Kline Fogelman modified airfoils. computational fluid dynamics findings first cross-checked with experimental data, processes validated as consequence. Then, CATIA, 12 airfoils were constructed by modif...

In this paper, a novel variable-leakage-flux interior permanent magnet (VLF-IPM) motor is proposed, which kind of mechanical flux-adjusting PM motor. The VLF-IPM can obtain the advantages IPM and overcome difficulty to adjust airgap flux by locating self-activating device that introduced in paper on rotor. effect barriers leakage circuit analysed establishing rotor parametric model clarify infl...

According to the results of our study, authors' point view on problem testing radiopharmaceutical medicaments, is reflected, taking into account active modern development nuclear medicine. In context, issues structure characters targeted medicaments (RPM) are considered from their organization clinical trials in Russia and abroad.
 The fact that ligands delivering diagnostic therapeutic is...

Despite global patronage, diesel engines still contribute significantly to urban air pollution, and with the ongoing campaign for green automobiles, there is an increasing demand controlling/monitoring pollution severity of especially in heavy-duty industries. Emulsified fuels provide a readily available solution engine pollution; however, inherent reduction power, component corrosion, and/or d...

The paper presents novel models of reconfigurable parallel mechanisms (RPMs) with a single active degree-of-freedom (1-DOF). contain three to six identical kinematic chains, which provide (for the tripod) zero hexapod) uncontrollable DOFs. Screw theory is applied carry out mobility analysis and proves existence controllable DOFs these mechanisms. Each chain in synthesized consists planar spatia...

In any educational system, performance-based reward is always present. Though it bears so much controversies, the government still designing different types of rewards, bonuses or incentives to help motivate employees. The study used survey research design evaluate effectiveness Performance-Based Bonus (PBB) in improving efficacy public high school teachers Philippines. Purposively selected and...

Raven’s progressive matrix (RPM) is one kind of visual abstract reasoning tasks, which tests the ability extracting rules from limited samples and applying them to an unknown setting. It frequently used in evaluating human intelligence. Recent advances RPM-like datasets solution models partially address challenges visually understanding RPM questions logically missing answers. This paper tackle...
