Effect of Obesity on Left Ventricular Longitudinal Myocardial Strain by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Children and Adolescents
(AVES, 2015)
Background: Impaired subclinical ventricular function may contribute to the risk of cardiovascular disease in obesity. Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the influence of obesity on left ventricular (LV) longitudinal ...
ASSESSMENT OF THE ADSORPTION KINETICS, EQUILIBRIUM AND THERMODYNAMICS FOR THE POTENTIAL REMOVAL OF NI2+ FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION USING WASTE EGGSHELL
(VILNIUS GEDIMINAS TECH UNIV, 2015)
In this study, Ni2+ sorption onto the waste eggshell was investigated under different operational conditions. Results indicated that the eggshell could be successfully used to remove Ni2+ ions from the water. Quick sorption ...
Probe of anomalous quartic WWZ gamma couplings in photon-photon collisions
(SPRINGER, 2015)
in this paper, we examine the potentials of the processes gamma gamma -> W(+)W(-)Z: and e(+)e(-) -> e+gamma*gamma*e(-) -> e(+)W(+)W(-) Ze(-) at the CLIC with root s = 0.5, 1.5 and 3 TeV to investigate anomalous quartic W ...
Association of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Their Tissue Inhibitor With Disease Activity and Development in Spondyloarthropathy and Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(TURKISH LEAGUE AGAINST RHEUMATISM, 2015)
Objectives: This study aims to investigate whether clinical measures of disease activity and function in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are associated with matrix metalloproteinase-3 ...

(INT SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION INC, 2015)
Background: In this retrospective review of patients with craniofacial fibrous dysplasia (FD), the clinical and radiological findings of CT and MR scan were analyzed. Material/Methods: The study material included 32 patients, ...
Palladium-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with imidazolylidene ligands substituted by crowded resorcinarenyl and calixarenyl units
(SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY-TUBITAK, 2015)
Two N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) palladium complexes of formula [PdBr2 (NHC)(pyridine)] in which the carbenic ring is flanked by sterically crowded cavitand substituents were prepared from appropriate imidazolium salts ...
Microstructural Characterization and Thermal Properties of Aluminium Titanate/Talc Ceramic Matrix Composites
(POLISH ACAD SCIENCES INST PHYSICS, 2015)
Talc (3MgO.4SiO(2).H2O) has excellent mechanical properties, shock and abrasion resistance, good electrical and thermal shock resistance, softness, isolation, chemical activity, heat resistance and oil absorption properties. ...
Statin pretreatment and risk of in-hospital atrial fibrillation among patients undergoing cardiac surgery: a collaborative meta-analysis of 11 randomized controlled trials
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2015)
Aims Statin pretreatment in patients undergoing cardiac surgery is understood to prevent postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF). However, this is based on observational and limited randomized trial evidence, resulting in ...
Reversible Myocarditis and Pericarditis after Black Widow Spider Bite or Kounis Syndrome?
(HINDAWI LTD, 2015)
Clinical manifestation of black widow spider bite is variable and occasionally leads to death in rural areas. Cases of myocarditis and pericarditis after black widow spider bite are rare and the associated prognostic ...
