Ideally the patient should be assessed in a thermoneutral environment, at rest for more than 30 minutes, and without food for 2 hours for precise measurements. A stress factor to account forinjuryis not necessary because the MEE accounts for the effects of the disease. However, because the ...

In addition, TGFβ is released following the exposure of cells to ionizing radiation [75]. Therefore, TGFβ-induced bystander effects may have implications for cancer progression and therapy. Secreted TGFβ can further induce a response not only in cancer cells but also in the tumor ...
At the molecular level, “direct” damage occurs when ionizing radiation directly breaks the covalent bonds of biological molecules (especially those of DNA), and “indirect” damage occurs via reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by water radiolysis [23]. At the individual (organismal) level, ...
Forced convection occurs when the movement of the air flowing around the heat sink is forced by an external factor, e.g., due to the operation of a fan. Heat removal from the heat sink also takes place by means of infrared (IR) radiation. The amount of heat given off by the heat ...
of some grains are in the range of 20 to 55 μm. After the ECAP process, the grain size of the Mg-Ca alloy is reduced to 1.48 μm, and just the grain that is smaller than 3 μm is observed. The 71% reduction in grain size of the ECAP Mg-Ca alloy occurs because the material...
However, using random devices may make a respondent report different answers when repeating the survey twice. Yu et al. [5] pointed out that this is a repetitive phenomenon and, hence, provided another design in which a respondent chooses question A or A ¯ to answer according to her/his...
