Bronchial Wall Thickness in Toll Collectors
(NATL INST OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY & HEALTH, JAPAN, 2010)
There is an increasing concern about the possible adverse effects of diesel exhaust particulates on human health. In a diesel exposed occupational group composed of 120 toll collectors, a cross-sectional study was performed ...
The availability of vaginal hysterectomy in benign gynecologic diseases: A prospective, non-randomized trial
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2010)
Objective: To determine whether vaginal hysterectomy can be performed in patients with benign gynecologic diseases regardless of uterine size, uterine mobility and previous pelvic surgery and to compare with abdominal ...
Genetic analysis of intraoral KIT-positive gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST)
(MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2010)
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), mesenchymal neoplasms originating from the cells of Cajal, usually appear in the gastrointestinal tract and abdomen. They often mimic other lesions, including smooth muscle cell ...
Intersubband optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes in triple quantum well with different well shapes
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2010)
In this study, both the intersubband optical absorption coefficients and the refractive index changes in triple quantum well (TQW) with different well shapes for different barrier widths is theoretically calculated within ...
Effect of Exposure to 50 Hz Magnetic Field With or Without Insulin on Blood Brain Barrier Permeability in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
(WILEY, 2010)
We investigated the effect of long-term exposure to modulation magnetic field (MF), insulin, and their combination on blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability in a diabetic rat model. Fifty-three rats were randomly assigned ...
Relationships between coal-quality and organic-geochemical parameters: A case study of the Hafik coal deposits (Sivas Basin, Turkey)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
This study provides coal-quality, organic-petrographic and organic-geochemical data on Tertiary subbituminous coal of the Hafik area, northwestern part of the Sivas Basin, Turkey. Coal-petrological studies along with ...
Genetic Structure of Chorthippus parallelus (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Gomphocerinae) Populations in Anatolia: A Stable Rear Edge Population
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2010)
Anatolian populations inhabit the southern latitudinal margin of species distribution ranges and therefore may be considered as "rear edge" populations. The genetic structures of such populations have critical importance ...
eNOS G894T Polymorphism and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2010)
Background: The genetic risk factors that contribute to the risk of developing abdominal aortic aneurysm ( AAA) are poorly understood. We assessed the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( eNOS) gene polymorphism ...
Development of pituitary apoplexy during TRH/GnRH test in a patient with pituitary macroadenoma
(SINGAPORE MEDICAL ASSOC, 2010)
Pituitary apoplexy occurs as a very rare complication following pituitary function tests. Signs and symptoms are due to the rapid expansion of an infarcted and/or haemorrhagic pituitary adenoma. We report a case of ...
Nonlinear experimental dye-doped nematic liquid crystal optical transmission spectra estimated by neural network empirical physical formulas
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
In this paper, two complementary objectives related to optical transmission spectra of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) were achieved. First, at room temperature, for both pure and dye (DR9) doped E7 NLCs, the 10-250W halogen ...
