BackgroundThe diaphragm is the primary muscle of inspiration, and its dysfunction is frequent during sepsis.However, the mechanisms associated with sepsis and diaphragm dysfunction are not well understood.In this study, we evaluated the morphophysiological changes of the mitochondrial diaphragm 5 days after sepsis induction.MethodsMale C57Bl/6 mice
The neuroimaging magnitude of pediatric brain atrophy in northern Tanzania
INTRODUCTION: CALENDULA SHAMPOO The loss of parenchymal brain volume per normative age comparison is a distinctive feature of brain atrophy.While the condition is the most prevalent to elderly, it has also been observed in pediatric ages.Various causes such as trauma, infection, and malnutrition have been reported to trigger the loss of brain tissu
Morphology and Mechanical Properties Investigation of Binary Polymer Blends Based on PP/SEBS and PP/PC
In this study, eight binary blends of polypropylene (PP)/ poly [styrene-b-(ethylene-co butylene)-b-styrene] tri-block copolymer (SEBS) and polypropylene (PP)/ polycarbonate (PC) were produced at different composition through twin screw extruder.The composition of the minor phases was changed to correlate the morphology and mechanical properties of
On the Challenges of Quantum Circuit Encoding Using Deep and Reinforcement Learning
Quantum computers may solve some computing tasks more efficiently than classical com- puters, but to do so requires the design of appropriate quantum circuits.However, it is hard to design even simple quantum programs.Recent results have shown that deep learning augmented search has the potential to discover good circuits for a problem, but it is n
Towards comprehensive air quality management using low-cost sensors for pollution source apportionment
Abstract Successful air quality management and control not only requires measurements of air pollution levels.It also requires information on the sources of air pollution, and their relative magnitudes and importance, to plan and enact cost-effective control measures.This paper provides an important breakthrough towards the wider and more comprehen
