The objective of this research was to characterize the ballistic performance p-aramid fabrics impregnated with shear thickening fluid (STF) focusing on laminating sequence layers. A panel all neat Kevlar and two hybrid panels STF were tested against 9 mm bullets at 436 m/s for body armor application. When laminated behind layers (N/S-panel), backface signature decreased compared (N-panel) placed backside (S/N-panel). enhanced N/S-panel assumed be due synchronized (or coupled) elongation...
The objective of this research was to characterize the ballistic performance p-aramid fabrics impregnated with shear thickening fluid (STF) focusing on fabric count and shot location. Panels made different counts were tested against 9 mm bullets at 436 m/s for body armor application. higher dissipated a fraction given impact energy through tensile dissipation led lower backface signature. decrease in signature value by hybridization neat STF smaller panels densely woven due larger difference...
The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for abscess formation in acute bacterial prostatitis, and compare treatment outcomes between group non-abscess group.This is a multicenter, retrospective cohort study. All patients suspected having an prostatic infection underwent computed tomography or transrectal ultrasonography discriminate abscesses from prostatitis without formation.A total 31 prostate were reviewed among 142 with prostatitis. Univariate analysis revealed that...
The present study was performed to determine the morphologic change and selected molecular features of spontaneous lung tumors in cats examined at North Carolina State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Thirty-nine primary carcinomas represented 0.69% all feline cases admitted hospital. Most were observed aged (P < .0001), no sex predilection found .4241). Persian with pulmonary carcinoma overrepresented data set, least 4 times more frequently than other breeds. histologic tumor types...
To investigate the effects of anthocyanins extracted from black soybean, which have antioxidant activity, on apoptosis in vitro (in hormone refractory prostate cancer cells) and tumor growth vivo athymic nude mouse xenograft model). The viability DU-145 cells treated with were assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was by DNA laddering. Immunoblotting conducted to evaluate differences expressions p53, Bax, Bcl, androgen receptor (AR), specific...
ObjectivesTo identify the age- and sex-specific antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) in outpatient febrile urinary tract infections (UTIs) Korea.MethodsA total 2262 consecutive samples collected from patients aged 1–101 years with UTIs, during period January 2012 to December 2014, were analyzed this multicentre, retrospective cohort study.ResultsThe sensitivities cefotaxime cefoxitin over 85% for females but under 75% males. Sex played an important role GNB...
This study took a retrospective approach to investigate patients with catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) over 2 years at single hospital's intensive care unit (ICU) identify meaningful risk factors and causative organisms.A retrograde analysis was performed on indwelling catheters between January 2009 December 2010 in Yeouido St. Mary Hospital medical surgical ICU. CAUTI defined as isolated bacterial growth of 100,000 colony-forming units or more either 48 hours after...
ABSTRACT This study aimed to (i) investigate the antimicrobial susceptibilities of bacteria that cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) in outpatient and inpatient settings (ii) evaluate risk factors for emerging drug resistance UTIs South Korea. In total, 3,023 samples without duplication were collected from females between 25 65 years age who had been diagnosed with a infection. Multicenter patient data using Web-based electronic system then evaluated. The isolation rates Escherichia coli ,...
The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy in ovo prime-boost vaccination against infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) using a DNA vaccine prime followed by killed-vaccine boost post hatching. In addition, adjuvant effects plasmid-encoded chicken interleukin-2 and interferon-gamma were tested conjunction with vaccine. A plasmid (pcDNA-VP243) encoding VP2, VP4, VP3 proteins very virulent IBDV (vvIBDV) SH/92 strain injected into amniotic sac alone or combination IL-2 (ChIL-2)...
Purpose:We evaluated the differences in calculi characteristics and their prevalence according to presence of lower urinary tract symptoms between adult patients examined at Urology Department those Health Promotion Center (HPC). Materials Methods:The prostatic calcification, (number, size, location), were compared analyzed for 479 subjects who underwent transrectal ultrasonography HPC Outpatients our hospital from October 2009 2010.Results: Of subjects, 268 HPC, 211 Department.Between two...
The authors aimed to report 5 cases of patients with penile lipogranuloma-induced full necrosis skin, wherein they obtained good results from simultaneous implementation Y-V incision prevent the shortening length together bipedicular scrotal flap.The excision lipogranuloma and a bipedicled flap was performed. After finishing flap, for extension in length, performed inverted V on upper skin followed by partial resection suspensory ligament sutured up subcutaneous tissue Y shape, extending...
An outbreak of natural measles virus infection occurred in a group Japanese macaques ( Macaca fuscata). Over period 4 months, 12 53 died following 2-23-day history anorexia, diarrhea, and dermatitis. The monkeys were kept outdoor exhibits but had been moved temporarily into indoor caging then transferred to new exhibits. Ten while they temporary caging, two after diagnoses made based on the results histopathology, immunohistochemistry (IHC), situ hybridization (ISH), electron microscopy....
There are few studies about clinical courses following acute bacterial prostatitis (ABP). We evaluated the progression rates of chronic (CBP) and inflammatory pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) after ABP treatment. Also characteristics patients who developed CBP CPPS Total 437 compatible with a confirmed diagnosis from 5 urological centers between 2001 2010 were enrolled to study. defined infection (CI) as treatment in admission periods when followed up at 3 months or more. Results analyzed two...
To assess the anti-adhesive effect of treatment with hyaluronic acid-carboxymethylcellulose following laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. This was a randomized, controlled, single-blind, parallel-group study using in patients who underwent Sixty were enrolled study. All randomly assigned to either group (n = 30) or control 30). Viscera slide ultrasounds and plain X-rays obtained at enrollment (V0), postoperative week 12 (V1), 24 (V2). The primary end point difference excursion distance...
Houttuynia cordata Thunb (HC) is a traditional herbal medicine widely used in Asia for the treatment of patients with alopecia, usually combination other two medicines (Perilla frutescens var. acuta (PFVA) and green tea (GT)). However, effect this complex has not been clearly demonstrated. We sought to determine hair growth-promoting (HC, PFVA, GT) animal model. Six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups (negative control, finasteride (1 mg/kg) as positive (200 400...
