Objective. To describe the onset, clinical features, prognostic factors, and treatment of adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) in cases from China. Methods. Sixty-one Chinese patients with AOSD were analyzed retrospectively. Results. Common features fever (100.0%), rash (88.5%), arthritis (82.0%). The laboratory findings as follows: leukocytosis (83.6%), increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate elevated transaminase concentrations (23.0%), ferritin levels (79.6%), negative antinuclear antibody...
Gears are among the most crucial components in transmission systems of machine tools. Gear manufacturing includes a number processing procedures. The grinding process is an important procedure involving high precision and fairly small surfaces. For this reason, study aimed at developing quality assessment model for internal cylindrical gears. Six Sigma indices (SSQIs) were used to directly assess due their ability reflect level yield. Since may include nominal-the-best (NTB),...
There are many clinical scoring criteria for predicting the risk of death in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), but most indicators complex to calculate and not suitable use primary hospitals. Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) red cell distribution width (RDW) blood routine that easy obtain may help hospitals evaluate STEMI. Our aim was explore predictive value NLR combined RDW long-term prognosis STEMI after emergency percutaneous coronary intervention...
This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant and anticancer effects of ethanolic aqueous extracts roots Ficus beecheyana (EERFB AERFB) their phenolic components. In this study, total content activity EERFB were higher than those AERFB. Major compounds in gallic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic caffeic chlorogenic p-coumaric rutin; which identified by high-performance liquid chromatography. Flow cytometric analysis HL-60 cells exposed showed that percentage apoptotic increased a dose-dependent...
The antiobesity effects of quercetin-rich supplement (QRS), which contain quercetin, lycopene, taurine, and litchi flower extract, on a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats were investigated. that consume HFD with QRS (185 mg/kg rat) have significantly modulated the final body weights [490 ± 11 (HFD) → 441 (HFD+QRS) g], total fat [112.9 4.5 86.6 5.7 liver [14.8 0.4 12.6 g/rat], serum TG [102.5 7.3 90.7 6.5 mg/dL] to level resembled regular diet-consumed (p < 0.05). excretion lipid in...
Objective The study objective was to examine alterations in gastrointestinal (GI) microbial composition patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and investigate the relationship between SSc features GI microbiota using two independent, international cohorts. Methods Prospective from Lund University (LU), Sweden, of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), United States, control subjects provided stool specimens for 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Alpha beta diversity analyses were performed. Multivariate...
Aims: Metabolic and structural perturbations in skeletal muscle have been found patients with heart failure (HF) both preserved (HFpEF) reduced (HFrEF) ejection fraction association endurance (RME). We aimed the current study to create phenotypes for RME HFpEF compared HFrEF according their metabolomic profiles test potential of Kynurenine (Kyn) as a marker RME. Methods: Altogether, 18 HFrEF, 17 HFpEF, 20 healthy controls (HC) were prospectively included study. The following tests performed...
Bicycle parts industry is a highly competitive industry, especially product components often adopt low price strategy. The case company losing advantage because of higher list than other companies in Taiwan. analyzes the manufacturing cost structure order to promote power. re-exams process carefully. There are three processing stage for manufacturing, from raw materials processed into level, assembled components, and assembles bicycle finally. customized causes different that will cause...
Abstract We previously reported that some human antiphospholipid Abs (aPL) in patients with the syndrome (APS) bind to homologous enzymatic domains of thrombin and activated coagulation factor X (FXa). Moreover, reactive are prothrombotic interfere inactivation FXa by antithrombin (AT). Considering domain IX (FIXa) is those FXa, we hypothesized aPLs APS FIXa hinder AT FIXa. To test this hypothesis, searched for IgG anti-FIXa patients. Once concerned were found, studied effects Ab on AT....
This paper derives the optimal replenishment lot size and shipment policy for an Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model with multiple deliveries rework of random defective items. The classic EPQ assumes a continuous inventory issuing satisfying demand perfect quality all items produced. However, in real life vendor–buyer integrated system, multi-shipment is practically used lieu generation inevitable. It assumed that imperfect fall into two groups: scrap rework-able Failure repair exists,...
This study uses an alternative fabrication scheme to the effect of rework nonconforming items and delayed differentiation on a multiproduct supply-chain system.Traditional economic production quantity model focuses single-product inventory system where all products made are assumed be perfect quality finished issued continuously.To increase machine utilization, lower costs in production, reflect real-world vendor-buyer integrated systems Chiu et al. (2016a) [
Objectives: To investigate the effect and mechanism of sacubitril/valsartan on myocardial fibrosis in rats following experimental infarction TGF-β1-treated fibroblasts. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) were subjected to coronary artery ligation establish intragastrically fed vehicle, valsartan (Val, 32 mg/kg, once-daily) or (Sac/Val, 68 for 4 weeks. In parallel, fibroblasts (MFs) isolated from neonatal SD exposed hypoxia treated with TGF-β1 (5 ng/ml) plus Val (10 7 –10 –5 M) Sac/Val 5 M)....
This paper presents a simple algebraic approach for deriving the optimal lot size economic production quantity (EPQ) model with rework process. Conventional methods solving problems are by using differential calculus on long-run average production-inventory cost function need to prove optimality first. A few recent articles proposed solution of classic order (EOQ) and EPQ without reference use derivatives. extends it an reworking defective items. We demonstrate that such imperfect can be...
