Human placenta-derived adherent cells (PDACs) are a culture-expanded, undifferentiated mesenchymal-like population derived from full-term placental tissue, with immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and neuroprotective properties. PDA-001 (cenplacel-L), an intravenous formulation of PDAC cells, is in clinical development for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. We t...

in this paper a fast and novel stability-indicating ultra fast lc method for separation and estimation of impurities in clopidogrel and aspirin in their combined tablet dosage form and omeprazole was developed. the separation of usp related substances of clopidogrel (a, b and c), aspirin (d), omeprazole (a, b and c) and few other unknown impurities was detected by using ultra fast liquid chroma...

In this research the biodegradability of 2,6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid (PDA) was evaluated. This compound has been used as a chelating agent for extraction of metal ions from contaminated soils. Initial experiments indicated that PDA was not biodegraded by unacclimated mixed cultures to any degree. However, acclimated mixed cultures degraded more than 80% of this compound within 12 h under di€...

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is common congenital heart disease which may require treatment as transcatheter percutaneous device closure (PDA device closure) or surgical ligation in symptomatic full-term patients. Surgical ligation is an invasive procedure and has more complications especially in the neonates. Problems in PDA device closure are difficult vascular access, manipulation of cathe...

BACKGROUND Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) have been integrated into daily practice for many emergency physicians and house officers. Few objective data exist that quantify the effect of PDAs on documentation. The objective of this study was to determine whether use of a PDA would improve emergency medicine house officer documentation of procedures and patient resuscitations. METHODS Twelv...

BACKGROUND Persistent patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) during hospitalization is thought to be associated with adverse pulmonary outcomes in very preterm infants. This observational study aimed to compare the lung function in very preterm infants with and without PDA at discharge. METHODS Very preterm infants, admitted to our neonatal intensive unit, who required respiratory support soon after ...

The Maximum Likelihood Probabilistic Data Association (ML-PDA) tracker and the Maximum Likelihood Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis (ML-PMHT) tracker were applied to five synthetic multistatic active sonar scenarios featuring multiple targets, multiple sources, and multiple receivers. For each of the scenarios, Monte Carlo testing was performed to quantify the performance differences between the t...

BACKGROUND Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is one of the most common congenital heart defects in dogs and is considered to be a complex, polygenic threshold trait for which a female sex predisposition has been described. Histological studies in dogs suggest that smooth muscle hypoplasia and asymmetry of the ductus tissue is the major cause of PDA. The Stabyhoun population is small and a predispo...
