Abstract Objectives Oral health is one of the greatest unmet health needs of migrant farmworkers and many migrant workers lack Button basic oral health knowledge.This paper presents evaluation results for an oral health education program designed to both increase knowledge concerning oral health practices and to gain a better understanding of the k
Both functional LTbeta receptor and TNF receptor 2 are required for the development of experimental cerebral malaria.
BackgroundTNF-related lymphotoxin alpha (LTalpha) is essential for the development of Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA)-induced experimental cerebral malaria (ECM).The pathway involved has been attributed to TNFR2.Here we show a second arm of LTalpha-signaling essential for ECM development through LTbeta-R, receptor of LTalpha1beta2 heterotrimer.Method
Accessory Hepatic Vein Stenting in the Management of Budd-Chiari Syndrome: A Case Report
The Budd-Chiari Syndrome (BCS) is associated with hepatic venous outflow obstruction.A 22-year-old female patient presented withabdominal pain and backache for 12 days, along with generalised weakness.Physical examination revealed pitting pedal oedema and abdominal distension.An abdominal ultrasound with Doppler Ultrasonography (USG) was performed,
Arctan-Based Family of Distributions: Properties, Survival Regression, Bayesian Analysis and Applications
In this paper, a new class of the continuous distributions is established via compounding the arctangent function with a generalized log-logistic class of distributions.Some structural properties of the suggested model such as distribution function, hazard function, quantile function, Mat Insert asymptotics and a useful expansion for the new class
Primary Impacts of the Fungal Toxin Sporidesmin on HepG2 Cells: Altered Cell Adhesion without Oxidative Stress or Cell Death
The fungal metabolite sporidesmin is responsible for severe necrotizing inflammation of biliary tract and liver of livestock grazing on pasture containing spores of Pithomyces Button chartarum that synthesizes the toxin.The toxin is secreted into bile causing the erosion of the biliary epithelium accompanied by inflammation and damage to surroundin
