The Effects of Melatonin on Ethylene Glycol-induced Nephrolithiasis: Role on Osteopontin mRNA Gene Expression
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017)
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the protective effects of melatonin (Mel) on an ethylene glycol (EG)-induced nephrolithiasis model in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-two Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 groups: control, EG, ...
Fluorescence of UV-excited LiPrP4O12 and LiTmP4O12 single crystals
(ELSEVIER GMBH, 2017)
Fluorescence in flux-grown single crystals of lithium praseodymium tetraphosphate (LiPrP4O12) and lithium thulium tetraphosphate (LiTmP4O12) has been studied under UV excitations with LEDs at six wavelengths between 245 ...
Trachelus stipa (Hymenoptera: Cephidae), a new stem sawfly from Central Anatolia associated with feather grass (Stipa holosericea, Poaceae)
(MAGNOLIA PRESS, 2017)
-Trachelus stipa is described from Central Anatolia, Turkey. It is morphologically close to T. flavicornis and T. troglodyta regarding the structure of the preapical sterna of the male. It is unique among Trachelus species ...
Direct growth of thick AlN layers on nanopatterned Si substrates by cantilever epitaxy
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2017)
AlN layers have been grown on 200 nm period of nano-patterned Si (111) substrates by cantilever epitaxy and compared with AlN layers grown by maskless lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) on micropatterned Si (111) substrates. ...
Cancer Antigen 125 is Associated with Length of Stay in Patients with Acute Heart Failure
(TEXAS HEART INST, 2017)
Length of stay is the primary driver of heart-failure hospitalization costs. Because cancer antigen 125 has been associated with poor morbidity and mortality rates in heart failure, we investigated the relationship between ...
Effects of platelet-rich plasma against experimental ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat testis
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017)
Background Testicular torsion is a common problem and, to date, there is no agent to preserve testicular function following detorsion. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), with its rich growth factor composition, has proven beneficial ...
Venous lactate, pH and partial pressure of carbon dioxide levels as prognostic indicators in 110 premature calves with respiratory distress syndrome
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017)
Hyperlactatemia, hypercapnia, low pH and low oxygen saturation (SatO(2)) are commonly observed in premature calves. These clinical indicators are associated with increased mortality in preterm human newborns with respiratory ...
New fluorescent azo-Schiff base Cu(II) and Zn(II) metal chelates; spectral, structural, electrochemical, photoluminescence and computational studies
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2017)
A new Schiff base containing azo chromophore group obtained by condensation of 2-hydroxy-4-[(E)phenyldiazenyl]benzaldehyde with 3,4-dimethylaniline (HL) are used for the syntheses of new copper(II) and zinc(II) chelates, ...
NUGGET FORMATION EFFECTS IN RESISTANCE SPOT WELDED DIFFERENT STEEL SHEETS
