However, research on the IOS-based SFDs (IOSFDs) shows that this particular type of SFD has promise in RT dosimetry applications due to their high sensitivity to low radiation dose rate and overwhelming signal intensity compared with the Cherenkov effect. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art...
Mental retardation, acromegalic face, and megalotestes in two half-brothers: a specific form of X-linked mental retardation without fra(X) (q)? We describe a family with two half-brothers affected with severe mental retardation. The phenotype in the affected individuals is characterized by appare...
Two exposure variables: parental educational level (“low”, “middle”, and “high”) and the relative family income tertiles of the family were used. The frequencies of parental role-modeling of FV and sugary food and drink (SFD) consumption, and the availability of FV and SFD at home ...

Once predetermined application or network requirements are met, the first PAN coordinator may instruct a device to become the PAN coordinator of a new cluster (Cluster head) adjacent to the first one. Other devices gradually connect and form a multi-cluster network structure (see Figure 5.4). ...
Currently, 463 million people are living with diabetes worldwide [1], and recent predictions estimate that the number of affected people may increase to 578 million by the year 2030 [2]. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the predominant form of the disease and results from complex interactions between...
Chinese herbal formulae (CHF) are the main form of Chinese medicine and are composed of single Chinese herbal medicines (CHMs) with pharmacological and pharmacodynamic compatibility. When single CHMs are combined into CHF, the result is different from the original effect of a single drug and can...
Biodiversity, in the form of crop diversity in cultivated food environments, can lead to greater food production, sustainability [161] and resilience [162,163]. As for wild biodiversity, there remains a lack of empirical research on the relationship between wild food use, food security and biodiv...
natriegens Vmax could form soluble and active MsAA upon induction with 1 mM IPTG. Therefore, we conducted the chaperone co-expression experiments at 30 °C cultivation temperature for 4 h. Fig. 3 SDS-PAGE analysis of cell extracts obtained from V. natriegens Vmax™ after expression of ...
performance of configuration-III HDSFD. In addition, the two oil films in the interval position are always in the same state of stress (squeezed or not squeezed). The hole in the center of the pressure plate is designed to form a clearance fit with the cylindrical surface of the plunger,...
