Effects of cold stress on early and late stimulus gating
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd., 2005)
The P50 component of the event-related potential (ERP) mainly reflects early pre-attentional processing. Along with P50 the N100 component and mismatch negativity (MMN) were postulated to represent a complex multistage and ...
Intraspinal metalloma resulting in late paraparesis
(Springer, 2005)
The metal-related complications caused by orthopedic implants have long been a concern but these problems have been considered mostly in the field of arthroplasty or internal fixation of fractures. The recent prevalence ...
Coulomb corrections in the lepton-pair production in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions
(Amer Physical Soc., 2005)
We solve the perturbative electron-positron pair production exactly by calculating the second-order Feynman diagrams. We compare our result with Born methods that include Coulomb corrections. We find that a small-momentum ...
Chebyshev nets formed by Ricci curves in a 3-dimensional Weyl space
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2005)
In this paper Ricci curves in a 3-dimensional Weyl space W-3(g T) are defined and it is shown that any 3-dimensional Chebyshev net formed by the three families of Ricci curves in a W-3(g T) having a definite metric and ...
Protective effects of ascorbic acid DL-alpha-tocopherol acetate and sodium selenate on ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury of rats
(Humana Press Inc., 2004)
In this study the effect of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) DL-alpha-tocopherol acetate (vitamin E) and sodium selenate (selenium) on ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury in rats was investigated morphologically and biochemically. ...
Optimal input design for the detection of changes towards unknown hypotheses
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2004)
The effects of auxiliary input signals on detecting changes in ARMAX processes via statistical tests are discussed. Two extensions to the Cumulative Sum Test are considered. The first is applicable when the direction of ...
Thiols malonaldehyde status in the Turkish and total antioxidant patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
(Tohoku Univ Medical Press, 2003)
Non-insulin-dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Oxidative stress mechanisms are often reported to be implied in type 2 diabetes mellitus. In order to determine ...
Hyperuricemia in hypothyroidism: Is it associated with post-insulin infusion glycemic response?
(Tohoku Univ Medical Press, 2003)
This experimental study was designed to examine whether hyperuricemia in hypothyroidism is associated with insulin resistance. For induction of hypothyroidism rabbits (n = 12) were administered methimazole orally (75 mg/100 ...
Hemodilution during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: Can we improve flow and reduce hypercoagulability?
(Forum Multimedia Publishing LLC., 2003)
Background: The aim of this study was to compare intraoperative coronary graft flows performed on pump and off pump and to evaluate the effects of hemodilution on coronary graft flows in off-pump coronary artery bypass ...
Surgical management of the spinal deformity in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VI
(Springer Verlag, 2003)
Five patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VI were surgically treated for their spinal deformities. All of them were female. All but one had a double-major thoracic and lumbar curve. One had a mild scoliotic curve but ...
