Abstract Background Fertilization restores the diploid crimson tint dunks state and begins the process by which the single-cell oocyte is converted into a polarized, multicellular organism.In the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, two of the earliest events following fertilization are secretion of the chitinous eggshell and completion of meiosis, an
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with or without fine needle aspiration (FNA), has g fuel spiderverse become an essential tool in the evaluation of pancreatobiliary diseases.Although conventional EUS is superior to multidetector computed tomography in tumor detection and staging, there are situations when characterization of various pancreatobiliary le
Abstract The formation of facial arteriovenous fistula (AVF) directly between the facial artery and vein after trauma is very rare.Compared with intracranial AVF, understanding of this condition is limited.This paper reported the case of a 49-year-old male who had a metallic foreign object impaled on his left neck while weeding 6 months prior to ad
Abstract Background We examined whether impaired renal function causes thickening of the aortic valve leaflets in hyperlipidemic apoE-knockout (apoE-/-) mice, and whether the putative effect on the aortic valves could be prevented by inhibiting the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) with enalapril.Methods Thickening of the aortic valve leaflets in
This paper presents a control scheme of a wide-area controlled static VAr compensator (WAC-SVC) and its real-time implementation in a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation scheme with three control objectives: (1) to increase the critical clearing time, (2) to damp the power oscillations, and (3) to minimize the maximum line current.The proposed co
