It is often taken to be intuitively obvious that if one is in a given conscious state, then one knows that one is in that state. This alleged obvious truth... B Garvey - 《Inquiry》 被引量: 3发表: 2001年 Evidence from healthcare modeling: What is its nature, and how should it be...
Excess α-tocopherol taken in supplements causes a reduction of γ-tocopherol concentration in plasma. The biochemical mechanism of this effect, which is important to human nutrition, has recently been elucidated.George WolfProfessor Emeritus at the Department of Nutritional Sciences and Toxicology...
Because the presence of platelets in the sample can shorten results, it is important to work with platelet poor plasma and to verify that centrifuges are working properly. Establishing a good normal range with well-defined parameters will provide good coagulation information. It will provide a ...
(PK/PD) model to quantify and understand drug forgiveness. The model parameterizes a medication merely by an effective rate of onset of effect when the medication is taken (on-rate) and an effective rate of loss of effect when a dose is missed (off-rate). Patient dosing is modeled by ...
Approximately 2.75 to 3 liters of blood is plasma and the rest is the cellular portion. Plasma is the liquid portion of the blood. Blood cells like red blood cells float in the plasma. Also dissolved in plasma are electrolytes, nutrients and vitamins (absorbed from the intestines or produced...
CD47 recognized by its macrophage receptor SIRPα serves as a “don’t eat-me” signal protecting viable cells from phagocytosis. How this is abrogated by apoptosis-induced changes in the plasma membrane, concomitantly with exposure of phosphatidylserine
When a larger set of control variables is taken into account (including occupation, industry, firm size, and level of wage bargaining), a much smaller part of the gap remains unexplained by differences in observed characteristics (except in Italy). Overall, results suggest that policy initiatives...
they also decrease their secretion oferythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates red blood-cell production by bone marrow cells. The decrease in red blood-cell production matches the decrease inplasmavolume so that thehematocrit(percentage of blood volume occupied by red blood cells) is the same as ...
When taken consistently every day, PrEP can reduce the risk of HIV infection by 92 percent [source: CDC]. Teaching and practicing safe sex is also key to preventing and spreading the HIV virus. Meanwhile, the search for an AIDS vaccine is ongoing. In 2015, Michael Farzan, an infectious ...
9. Plasma Pistol The plasma pistol has been a Halo staple from the very beginning and is generally considered to be a great set-up weapon, as an overcharged shot can completely deplete an enemy’s shield and leave them open for a kill shot. The weapon became even more useful in Halo ...
