BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes is a risk factor for perinatal complications; include shoulder dystocia, birth injuries such as bone fractures and nerve palsies. It is associated with later developme…
Inbred strain 2 and strain 13 guinea pigs were infected intradermally in the hind legs with different numbers of the virulent Nichols strain of Treponema pallidum. About 91% of the animals developed c…
Four rumen-cannulated calves were used in a block design to study changes in rumen fermentation end-products and rumen digesta kinetics after weaning. Calves were weaned at 5 wk of age and had access …
Six monkeys had prior systemic immunization followed by intraretinal challenge to each eye with Toxoplasma antigens. All eyes developed iridocyclitis, vitritis, and retinal edema, but no necrotizing r…
The design principles of a bone densitometer for heel bone based on SPA are introduced here, which include the principles of mechanical system and control system. The main technical index and advantag…
This work focuses on the release of nanoparticles from commercially used nanocomposites during machining operations. A reliable and repeatable method was developed to assess the intentionally exposure…
The aim of this study was to investigate the physico-chemical properties of cationic niosomes (Tween61/cholesterol/CTAB) loaded with fraction No. 3 of Oryza sativa bran extract (OSF3) at 0.1, 0.5, 1.0…
Within the scope of a joint project to study soil-to-plant carryover of polyfluorinated compounds (PFCs), five cultivated plants (spring wheat, oats, potatoes, maize, and perennial ryegrass) were sown…
The possible role of the renin-angiotensin system in the maintenance of hypertension in two-kidney, one clip hypertensive rats was studied. Plasma renin activity rose rapidly and markedly in associati…
Organic compounds contribute to a major fraction of atmospheric aerosols and have significant impacts on climate and human health. However, because of their chemical complexity, their measurement rema…
Suitably controlled serosurveillance surveys are essential for evaluating human papillomavirus (HPV) immunization programs. A panel of plasma samples from 18-year-old females was assembled, the majori…
Maternal folate status during pregnancy may influence central nervous system (CNS) development in offspring. However, the recommended intakes of folic acid for women of childbearing age differ among c…
Bone mass measurements have been shown to be useful determinants of the risk of development of osteoporotic fractures and may help identify individuals who are most likely to benefit from both primary…
Pollution vulnerability of the Owerri regional water supply aquifer was evaluated as a basis for developing appropriate protection strategy for the groundwater resource. The assessment was accomplishe…
Thyroxine and glucocorticoids both play important roles in regulating the development of mammalian tissues. The mechanisms by which they modulate the developmental process is not fully understood. Fur…
This study evaluates the influence of testicular secretions during development in male hamsters on peripubertal gonadotropin levels. Castration or sham operations were performed on the day of birth (D…
Cigarette smoking predisposes to the development of multiple diseases involving oxidative damage. We measured a range of oxidative damage biomarkers to understand which differ between smokers and nons…
We report the development of 4D scanning transmission ultrafast electron microscopy (ST-UEM). The method was demonstrated in the imaging of silver nanowires and gold nanoparticles. For the wire, the m…
The diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to a deficiency of the enzyme 17 alpha-hydroxylase was made in a genetic male and female sibling pair born of parents who were first cousins. The ge…
