The aim of this study was to compare aerosol exposure with or without an aerosol box in a pressurized/depressurized room during aerosol-generating procedures using an experimental model. Cake flour (a…
A novel photonic scheme for generating multi-band dual-chirp waveforms with linear or nonlinear chirp rates is proposed via two cascaded polarization modulators (PolMs) paralleled with a phase modulat…

The age effect on the kinetics of piroxicam at the steady-state after oral administration of piroxicam beta-cyclodextrin was evaluated. The mean plasma concentration of piroxicam at the steady-state w…
Since bone mass has been shown to be an important determining factor of fractures in vitro, we undertook a study to evaluate whether bone mass measurements could separate postmenopausal women with ver…
This study focuses on PRL, GH, beta-endorphin and cortisol in maternal blood and amniotic fluid during human pregnancy. Maternal blood and amniotic fluid samples were obtained from 18 normal pregnant …
1. The present study investigated the effect of prior administration of nifedipine on AVP-induced ACTH release in seven normal volunteers. Three protocols were used: 20 mg oral nifedipine; 0.14 presso…
The mechanical properties of dewatered, anaerobically digested sewage sludge were determined from soil laboratory tests. The sludge material is largely composed of organic clay sized-particles, a siza…
Earlier reports indicate that calves derived from in vitro produced (IVP) embryos are more susceptible to neonatal disease than calves produced after artificial insemination (AI) or natural mating. Th…
Abnormalities in the vasopressin and renin systems have been reported in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Therefore, studies were performed to evaluate the responsiveness of these systems to cha…
To investigate factors associated with sodium sensitivity, 157 subjects were studied while receiving 10 and 200 mEq sodium diets. Measurements included blood pressure (BP), forearm vascular resistance…
Maur?cio Rocha e Silva is well known as the discoverer of bradykinin, the powerful hypotensive and smooth muscle stimulating polypeptide which was first detected in plasma following the addition of Bo…
Organosulfates (OS) are important components of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) that have been identified in numerous field studies. This class of compounds within SOA can potentially affect aerosol p…
BACKGROUND: Major differences in creatinine results between different laboratories and apparent inaccuracies when using commercial lyophilized standards were noted. In order to assess the variation an…
Rechargeable Li-ion batteries (LIB) are increasingly produced and used worldwide. LIB electrodes are made of micrometric and low solubility particles, consisting of toxicologically relevant elements. …
Increasing penetration remains one of the most important issues in optical coherence tomography (OCT) research, which we achieved with a parallel ultrasound beam. In addition to qualitative improvemen…
Kisspeptin (KP) plays a key role in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis via the release of GnRH. As normal KP signaling is essential for reproductive function, it could be an int…
The possible relationship between plasma androgenic activity and acne vulgaris was investigated. Plasma testosterone and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels were determined in healthy girls dur…
OBJECTIVE: Circulating insulin levels in themselves have been reported to influence the counter-regulatory hormone response to hypoglycaemia in man. The effect of insulin on a specific aspect of this …
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the association between abdominal obesity and hyperglycemia differs according to the presence of a parental history of diabetes.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We conducted …
