Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder which described by chronic hyperglycemia due to faulty insulin secretion. Metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins are disturbed in DM Objective: To assess the occurrence distribution diabetes mellitus Mardan, Pakistan Methods: It cross-sectional, survery-based study conducted at District Headquarter Hospital Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The detaile...

the basic strategy of reduce the ductility demand and related concentrated tensions at moment resistance connections is reduce the section of the beam at connected region to column. by this method plastic hinge done at the reduced cross section and this local reduction decreases the demand of the components of connection. on this basis, in present study a new beam-to-column moment connection wi...

The spirochaete bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato is the causative agent of Lyme disease, the most common tick-borne infection in the northern hemisphere. There is a long-standing debate regarding the role of pleomorphic forms in Lyme disease pathogenesis, while very little is known about the characteristics of these morphological variants. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of B...

Purpose: To describe participants' attitudes, beliefs, and experiences with the use of two methods of scoring the Multiple Mini-Interview (MMI) for admission to a Master of Physical Therapy program: a rank-based scoring system (RBS; used from 2007 to 2013) and a criterion-based scoring system (CBS; tested in 2014). The MMI uses short independent assessments to obtain an aggregate score of candi...

Improving the nutritional profile of sausages through the addition of dietary fiber might affect appetite, sensory characteristics, and liking differently depending on the fiber source. This study investigates the sensory characteristics and consumer acceptance of sausages with 10% (w/w) fat and added rye or wheat bran. Sensory descriptive attributes (odor, appearance, texture, and flavor) of r...

The EUO gene (for early upstream open reading frame) of Chlamydia psittaci was previously found to be transcribed better at 1 than at 24 h postinfection. We found that the EUO gene encodes a minor protein that is expressed within 1 h of infection of host cells with C. psittaci 6BC but that protein quantity peaks during the logarithmic growth phase of reticulate bodies (RBs), declines late in th...

Semiconducting precipitates of βFeSi2 have been successfully fabricated in silicon by high dose Fe+ implantation (typically 1.5 x 1016 Fe cm-2 at 200keV). Room temperature electro luminescence (EL) at 1.5μm has been observed from light emitting diodes (LED’s) incorporating this type of structure. This study is to evaluate how the microstructure and optical properties are affected by the implant...

Small RNA (sRNA)-induced mRNA degradation occurs through binding of an sRNA to a target mRNA with the concomitant action of the RNA degradosome, which induces an endoribonuclease E (RNase E)-dependent cleavage and degradation of the targeted mRNA. Because many sRNAs bind at the ribosome-binding site (RBS), it is possible that the resulting translation block is sufficient to promote the rapid de...
