    The difference between maximal and minimal QT interval and corrected QT interval defined as QT dispersion and corrected QT dispersion may represent arrhythmogenic risks. This study sought to evaluate QT dispersion and corrected QT dispersion... QT and RR intervals. Means QT dispersion and corrected QT dispersion were significantly higher in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome than controls, 52 plus or minus 27 compared to 40 plus or minus 14 milliseconds (p equal to 0.014), and 71 plus

    Purpose: To investigate dispersion consistency of solid lipid nanoparticles as functions of lipid types and concentrations. Methods: Viscoelastic measurement at an application of low stress was employed to characterize the internal microstructure... developed within the dispersions. Pure triglycerides with different length of fatty acid chains, trimyristin (C14), tripalmitin (C16), and tristearin (C18) were studied with respect to the partial triglyceride with C22 chain length (Compritol 888 ATO

    Knowledge of mosquito dispersal is critical for vector-borne disease control and prevention strategies and for understanding population structure and pathogen dissemination. We determined Aedes aegypti flight range and dispersal patterns from 21... mark-release-recapture experiments conducted over 11 years (1991-2002) in Puerto Rico and Thailand. Dispersal was compared by release location, sex, age, season, and village. For all experiments, the majority of mosquitoes were collected from

    © 2018, The Korean Society of Toxicogenomics and Toxicoproteomics and Springer Nature B.V. Backgrounds: Trends in the use of an anticoagulant as a dispersing stabilizer are addressed. An effective approach to preparing stable nanosized titanium... dioxide (nTiO 2 ) for accurate and systematic assessment of nano- toxicity has not been established. Methods: Among the dispersants tested here, it was found that sodium polyacrylate (PAA) was the most effective dispersant for nTiO 2 in culture media. Our

    Genetic evidence for contribution of human dispersal to the genetic diversity of EBA-175 in Plasmodium falciparum
    (2015-08-01) Yoshiki Yasukochi; Izumi Naka; Jintana Patarapotikul; Hathairad Hananantachai; Jun Ohashi; University of Tokyo; Mahidol University
    , there have been no studies investigating the effect of dispersal of humans out of Africa on the genetic variation of EBA-175 in P. falciparum. Methods: The PCR-direct sequencing was performed for a part of the eba-175 gene (regions II and III) using DNA... lineages. The present results suggest that the dispersals of humans out of Africa influenced significantly the molecular evolution of P. falciparum EBA-175.

    Numerical Analysis of Indoor Air Characteristics and Window Screen Influence on Particulate Matter Dispersion in a Childcare Center Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
    (2024-01-01) Simatupang C.A.; Strezov V.; Boontanon S.K.; Pongkiatkul P.; Boontanon N.; Jindal R.; Simatupang C.A.; Mahidol University
    Indoor exposure to outdoor pollutants adversely affects health, varying with building dimensions and particularly ventilation that have critical role on their indoor dispersion. This study assesses the impact of outdoor air on indoor air quality... in a child care center. Computational fluid dynamics was utilized to analyze the dispersion of particulate matter, with a specific focus on window screens featuring 6 distinct pore sizes ranging from 0.8 mm to 2 mm and 2 different thicknesses of 0.5 mm
