Abstract Melamine‐contaminated milk formula caused infant nephrolithiasis in some areas of China. Its combination with cyanuric acid causes crystallization renal tubules. Following this damage and even failure that require long‐term hemodialysis has been reported. Therefore, correct timely diagnosis these complex diseases is critical. Melamine containing stone a equal molar ratios common compositions reported from previous animal studies. We have previously identified the urinary tract...
Pharmacological therapy for urolithiasis using medicinal plants has been increasingly adopted the prevention of its recurrence. A Drosophila melanogaster model developed translational research was applied to evaluate agents with potential antilithic effects and calcium oxalate (CaOx) formation. Potential herbs were prepared in a mixture food diluted concentration 5,000 from original extract 0.5% ethylene glycol (EG) as lithogenic agent. The control group fed only. After 3 weeks, flies...
Acupuncture and moxibustion are used to treat pruritus atopic dermatitis. However, whether cold stimulation (defined as that the temperature conducted under skin temperature) of acupoints affects itching in experimental murine models remains unclear. The present study was designed determine therapeutic effects different thermal stimulations at Quchi acupoint (LI11) a model which scratching behaviour elicited by subcutaneous injection with pruritogenic agent (compound 48/80). Male ICR mice...
We report on the results of a high voltage test in liquid argon order to measure its dielectric rigidity. Under stable conditions and below boiling point, was found sustain uniform electric field 100 kV/cm, applied region 20 cm$^2$ area across 1 cm thick gap. When is boiling, breakdowns may occur at fields as low 40 kV/cm. This one R&D efforts towards Giant Liquid Argon Charge Imaging ExpeRiment (GLACIER) proposed Time Projection Chamber (LAr TPC) for LBNO observatory neutrino physics,...
Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (Danshen), a common medicinal plant in traditional Chinese medicine, has been tested effectively to prevent urolithiasis animals; nevertheless, the clinical application for remains unclear. We thus investigated effect of Danshen by analyzing database from Taiwan National Institute Health. The cohort "Danshen-users" was prescribed herb medicine after initial diagnosis calculus. control group (non-Danshen-users) not given date first using new calculus considered as...
Safflower (Flos carthami; FC) has been used widely as a food additive, coloring and flavoring agent. It also Chinese herbal medicine for improving blood flow resolving thrombosis. This study investigated whether the risk of bleeding complications is increased among FC users. We conducted retrospective involving test group that control (non-FC users) group. The participants were aged 18 years above, recruited from 2000 – 2006. beneficiaries LHID2000. cohort included who had prescribed...
Traditional Chinese herbal medicine (CHM), which is widely used to treat pain and urolithiasis, a promising therapy for urinary stone prevention. This study investigated the clinical efficacy of popular CHM, Wu-Ling-San (WLS), in Taiwan prophylaxis recurrent nephrolithiasis as assessed by surgical treatment via nationwide population-based cohort study. The National Health Insurance Research Database, 2000-2010, included one million patient records. All patients diagnosed with disease at...
Abstract To figure out the copper metabolism features in vivo and evaluate potential risk of residue tissues black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) their by-products, effects oral exposure 0, 50, 500 1000 mg/kg (Control, Cu50, Cu500 Cu1000) on growth performance dynamic accumulation fat body, cuticle BSFL rearing were investigated a 12-days trial. The results showed that, body weight length, protein content improved by to 50 copper, but reduced as well that pre-pupa rate. Under mg/kg,...
The principals and characteristics of three typical time frequency analysis methods that Short Time Furious transformation, wavelet transformation Hilbert-Huang are introduced, the mathematical definition, application ranges these so on pointed out, then their time-frequency local performance is made comparison through computer programming simulation.
In this paper, the difference in degradation mechanism for different substrate engineered CMOS devices has been reported first time. These two engineering includes hybrid engineering, with (100) and (110) orientations, strained-Si devices. Different mechanisms are responsible these mobility enhancement schemes. For devices, it shows that dominant HC (hot carrier) NBT (negative bias temperature) degradations is attributed to lateral electric field resulting from enhancement. While (110)/(100)...
Objective To investigate the effects of HP and PHP maneuver training on human centrifuge for purpose establishing a scientific approach centrifuge. Methods According to maneuverability high performance fighter aircrafts,a 3-day program was constituted.The highest G level 6.0,7.0,9.0 respectively 3 days.On 1st day,preprogrammed acceleration profiles were adopted.After relaxed tolerance test,pilots who wore anti-G suit or compensatory underwent training.On 2nd 3rd day,trainings breathing...
Objective To explore the pulmonary ventilation characters of performing HP and L 1 anti-G maneuvers,to determine flow requirement for oxygen system design,and to provide references pilot straining maneuver training physiological requirements development.Methods Ten male subjects were trained on ground by L-1 maneuvers parameters recorded as follows:respiratory frequency,expiratory volume,inspiratory volume,peak expiratory rate (PEFR),peak inspiratory (PIFR),and maximal voluntary...
Objective To constitute the approach of push-pull effect (PPE) protection training by using HP maneuver on centrifuge.Methods By referencing (PPM) parameters recorded from aerial combat maneuvers,a 3-day centrifuge PPE program was constituted for 6 pilots.On 1st day,adopting preprogrammed acceleration profiles whose peak +Gz level 3,5,6 and 7 G respectively with onset offset rate 3 G/s,pilots underwent anti-G suit.On 2nd day,PPE carried out performing through exposures to PPM composed...
Objective To investigate the gender differences on +Gz-tolerance by comparing relaxed and straining G tolerances of females males.Methods Investigations were done from six female seven male healthy volunteers.The maximum expiration pressure was measured a meter.The subjects determined series rapid-onset runs (RORs) centrifuge.The tolerance tested when not protected any anti-G method.When concerned,the suit positive breathing for (PBG) used performed PHP maneuver.Statistical analysis...
Objective To investigate the difference of + Gz tolerance between male and female student pilots by testing forces developed respiratory leg muscles,and to verify G test means anti-G training apparatus. Methods Thirty-two thirty volunteered for this study.The vertical heart-to-eye distance,maximum expiration pressure,maximum inspiration pressure muscles,systolic blood when performing HP PHP maneuver were measured.The was reckoned an empirical formula volunteers riding on apparatus with...
The basic law and method of Hilbert-Huang Transformation (HHT) is introduced, HHT induced into the application study dynamic EEG data under +Gz acceleration.The at static state that when 1G acceleration made time frequency analysis by using method, result basically consistent with FFT, proving feasibility this on analysis.It found contrast that, more appropriate for treatment nonstationary signal, moreover, whole process adaptive.HHT can better show distribution signal energy in domain...
