Ribeiro, L.P.; Blume, E.; Bogorni, P.C.; Dequech, S.T.B.; Brand, S.C.; Junges, E., 2012: Compatibility of Beauveria bassiana commercial isolate with botanical insecticides utilized in organic crops in southern Brazil. Products based on botanical insecticides and entomopathogenic fungi have been widely used in organic farming, especially in southern Brazil. Thus, this study investigated, <i>in vitro</i>, the effect of aqueous extracts and commercial...

Suzuki, H.; Katanasaka, Y.; Sunagawa, Y.; Miyazaki, Y.; Funamoto, M.; Wada, H.; Hasegawa, K.; Morimoto, T., 2016: Tyrosine phosphorylation of RACK1 triggers cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by regulating the interaction between p300 and GATA4. The zinc finger protein GATA4 is a transcription factor involved in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. It forms a functional complex with the intrinsic histone acetyltransferase (HAT) p300. The HAT activity of p300 is required for the acetylation and tran...

Nabavizadeh, A.; Urban, M.W.; Kinnick, R.R.; Fatemi, M., 2012: Velocity measurement by vibro-acoustic Doppler. We describe the theoretical principles of a new Doppler method, which uses the acoustic response of a moving object to a highly localized dynamic radiation force of the ultrasound field to calculate the velocity of the moving object according to D...

Nishiyama, A.; Kino, K.; Tsukagoshi, K.; Tobe, S.; Otomo, N., 2015: Effect of water-soluble titanium microparticle-permeated tape on temporomandibular disorders-related pain: a preliminary study. Recent research has focused on the applicability of titanium particle-impregnated materials in healthcare and medical products. This preliminary study was undertaken to investigate the effect of water-soluble titanium microparticle-permeated (WSTi...

Yudkowsky, R.; Otaki, J.; Lowenstein, T.; Riddle, J.; Nishigori, H.; Bordage, G., 2010: A hypothesis-driven physical examination learning and assessment procedure for medical students: initial validity evidence. Diagnostic accuracy is maximised by having clinical signs and diagnostic hypotheses in mind during the physical examination (PE). This diagnostic reasoning approach contrasts with the rote, hypothesis-free screening PE learned by many medical stud...

Story, L.; Sankaran, S.; Mullins, E.; Tan, S.; Russell, G.; Kumar, S.; Kyle, P., 2016: Survival of pregnancies with small for gestational age detected before 24 weeks gestation. Counselling women where severe growth abnormalities are detected early in the pregnancy is often difficult due to a paucity of outcome data of this specific subset of early onset disease. This study therefore aimed to assess the outcome of pregnan...

In this study, a comparative thermodynamic analysis of methane reforming reactions is conducted using an in-house code. Equilibrium compositions are calculated by two distinct methods: (1) evaluation of equilibrium constants and Lagrange multiplie...

Panconesi, A.; Casini, N.; Santini, A.; Stefanini, F.M., 1995: Effect of Seiridium cardinale on growth of cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) clones. To determine whether cypress bark canker, caused by the fungus Seiridium cardinale (Wag.) Sutton & Gibson, affects height and diameter growth of common cypress (Cupressus sempervirens L.), these parameters were measured over 4 years on inoculated...

Ben Harosh-Katz, M.; Patlas, M.; Hadas-Halpern, I.; Zimran, A.; Elstein, D., 2004: Increased prevalence of cholelithiasis in Gaucher disease: association with splenectomy but not with gilbert syndrome. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the incidence of gallstones among adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease and whether the presence of the UDPGT1 polymorphism (Gilbert syndrome), increases the incidence of gallstones. Cholelithiasis wa...
