A Novel Locus for Restless Legs Syndrome on Chromosome 13q
(KARGER, 2012)
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder in which affected individuals suffer from uncomfortable sensations and an urge to move their lower limbs; it occurs mainly in resting situations during ...
Effects of boric acid on experimental periodontitis and alveolar bone loss in rats
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012)
Objective: The goal of the present study was to evaluate the histopathologic and morphometric effects of systemic boric acid in a rat periodontitis model. Design: Twenty-four Wistar rats were divided into three groups of ...
Determination of actual limit angles to the surface and their comparison with the empirical values in the Upper Silesian Basin (Czech Republic)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
This study deals with the determination of the actual limit angles in the long-term formed subsidence basin in the Czech part of the Upper Silesian Basin (the remaining part lays in Poland). Here there was the most extensive ...
Neural computing models for prediction of permeability coefficient of coarse-grained soils
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Correlations are very significant from the earliest days; in some cases, it is essential as it is difficult to measure the amount directly, and in other cases it is desirable to ascertain the results with other tests through ...
Effects and Selectivity of CL 316243, Beta-3-Adrenoceptor Agonist, in Term-Pregnant Rat Myometrium
(KARGER, 2012)
Background/Aims: Recent evidence supports a predominant role of beta(3)-adrenoceptors at the end of pregnancy in myometrium. This study was designed to characterize the pharmacology of the selective beta(3)-adrenoceptor ...
Antioxidant-oxidant status in patients with hydatid cyst
(WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2012)
Objectives: To determine whether oxidative stress plays a role in the pathogenesis of hydatid cyst by examining levels of total antioxidant status, total oxidant status, oxidative stress index, and activities of the enzymes ...
Statistical evaluation of flotation and entrainment behavior of an artificial ore
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
The role of several parameters on gangue recovery in froth was investigated. Effects of frother type and collector dosage on flotation performance were tested at pH 10. The results were evaluated statistically by two-way ...
Role of new agents affecting NO/cGMP pathway on ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pig trachea
(INFORMA HEALTHCARE, 2012)
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease in which cell components play important roles. We aimed to evaluate the effects of NO/cGMP cleavage at trachea preparations isolated from ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs in vitro. ...
A leaning historical monument formed by underground mining effect: An example from Czech Republic
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
As causes of underground mining activities, subsidences and slope deformations are very important problems in most countries. If the slope deformation or subsidence cannot be effectively controlled then it will cause damages ...
A new automatic method for estimation of magnetization and density contrast by using three-dimensional (3D) magnetic and gravity anomalies
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
In this paper, a new method estimating the ratio of magnetic intensity to density contrast of a body that creates magnetic and gravity anomalies is presented. Although magnetic intensity and density of an anomalous body ...
