Sleepiness is the condition where for some reason fails to go into a sleep state and will have difficulty in remaining awake even while carrying out activities. Sleep restriction occurs when an individual fails to get enough sleep due to high work demands. The mechanism between sleep restriction and underlying brain physiology deficits is not well assumed. The objective of the present study was...

In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the protein product of the gene defective in cystic fibrosis (CF), plays a crucial role in fluid accumulation, which promotes cyst swelling. Several studies have identified individuals afflicted by both ADPKD and CF. Two studies suggested that CF mutations might attenuate the sev...

INTRODUCTION Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is an adjunctive method of chronic venous disease (CVD) therapy. Evaluation of the change at the clinical stage, hemodynamic parameters and quality of life (QoL) following venous system surgery in CVD patients undergoing MLD preoperatively are the most interesting aspects of the study. MATERIAL AND METHODS The CVD patients qualified for elective su...

A GaN Reverse-Conducting HEMT (RC-HEMT) is proposed and fabricated on the GaN/AlGaN/GaN platform. It features an integrated Schottky barrier diode (SBD) to realize reverse conduction double-heterojunction enhance breakdown voltage (BV). Compared with inherent capability of conventional (Con. HEMT), built-in SBD exhibits a low turn-on (VRT) its VRT independent threshold gate bias. At off-state, ...
