Effect of surface void percentage (SVP) on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of porous rocks
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2018)
In this paper, the effect of areal void size on unconfined compressive strength (UCS) depending on the core diameter is investigated and discussed in terms of obtaining more accurate and reliable strength values relating ...
Linear and nonlinear optical properties in the terahertz regime for multiple-step quantum wells under intense laser field: Electric and magnetic field effects
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
We present a theoretical study on the linear and nonlinear optical properties in AlrGa1-rAs/GaAs asymmetric multiple step quantum wells (AMSQW) under the effects of a non-resonant intense laser field (ILF), electric, and ...
Association of soluble ST2 with functional capacity in outpatients with heart failure
(URBAN & VOGEL, 2018)
Background. Biomarkers play an important role in the risk stratification of patients with heart failure (HF). Recent studies have shown that soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin 1 ...
Aflatoxin B-1 induced renal and cardiac damage in rats: Protective effect of lycopene
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018)
This study was conducted to investigate the protective effects of lycopene against the toxic effects of Aflatoxin B-1 (AFB(1)) exposure in kidney and heart of rat by evaluating antioxidant defense systems and lipid ...
FPSE-HPLC-DAD method for the quantification of anticancer drugs in human whole blood, plasma, and urine
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
The present work describes a fast, sensitive and selective procedure for the analyses of aromatase inhibitors including anastrozole, letrozole and exemestane used in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer by high ...
Cracking and quality attributes of jujube fruits as affected by covering and pre-harvest Parka and GA(3) treatments
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018)
This study was carried out to investigate the effects of rain protective covering (RPC) together with Parka and gibberellic acid (GA(3)) treatments on cracking rates and quality attributes of jujube fruits. RPC was mounted ...
Is the brain spared in Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever? An MR-SWI study to reveal CNS involvement
(SPRINGER, 2018)
The aim of this prospective study is to investigate the central nervous system involvement in Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in conjunction with clinical and laboratory findings. ...
Effect of the allopregnanolone and allotetrahydrodeoxycorticosteron on spike-wave discharges in the EEG of absence epilepsy rat models
(GENERAL PHYSIOL AND BIOPHYSICS, 2018)
Absence epilepsy is a generalized nonconvulsive type of epilepsy that is characterized by spike-wave discharges (SWD) with a frequency of 2.5-4 Hz in the EEG. The activation of the GABAergic system in central nervous system ...
MicroRNA-221/222 expression in atherosclerotic coronary artery plaque versus internal mammarian artery and in peripheral blood samples
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2018)
Background: Atherosclerosis is a disease of the arterial wall with predilection to some sites on others. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of the non-coding RNAs regulating the target gene expression at post-transcriptional ...
