The inheritance pattern of monogenic inheritable disorders influences the proportion of unaffected embryos after preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). We aimed to investigate the influence of the number of cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) on the outcome after PGD. Eighty-four cycles of 47 couples were included in our analysis. All couples were at risk of transmitting autosomal recessive, autos...

Continuity of care (COC) has a proven relationship with health care outcomes. However, evidence regarding an association between COC and avoidable hospitalization for elderly patients with asthma is insufficient.A retrospective cohort study was performed using Taiwanese National Health Insurance claim data from 2004 to 2013. Patients were retrospectively followed for 2 years; the COC index (COC...

The effect of skin-penetrating enhancers such as propylene glycol (PG), Azone and ethanol on the thermophysical properties of cholesteryl oleyl carbonate (COC) was investigated using differential scanning colorimetry (DSC) and microscopic Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The results indicate that PG did not influence the DSC thermograms and IR spectra of COC in the different rat...

Procainamide (PA), a cardioactive drug, inhibited the degradation of both cocaine (COC) and cocaethylene (CE) when either was incubated in human liver homogenates for 3 h at 37 degrees C. PA appeared to enhance the formation of CE when COC and ethanol (ETOH) were incubated together in liver homogenate. These observations are clinically significant because cardiotoxicity is common after COC abus...

به دنبال شیوع ویروس کرونا در جهان، بسیاری از تعاملات رسمی آموزشی سمت برگزاری بستر محیط مجازی سوق یافت و ادامة فرایند آموزش معماری نیز همانند همة دوره‌های آموزشی، دلیل تعطیلی دانشگاه‌ها، تنها برخط ممکن گشت. این میان کارگاه‌های طراحی معماری، منزلة کانون ویژگی‌های منحصربه‌فردی دارند که را سایر رشته‌های دانشگاهی جدا کرده است. نمونة بارزی یک مشارکتی، چندحسی، تجربه‌گرای مبتنی بر مسئله همین ویژگی‌ها م...
