The Effects of High and Low Chromium Yeast Supplementation on Glucose Metabolism of Noninsulin Dependent Diabetic Patients
Chromium in the trivalent state is an essential element required for normal carbohydrate and lipid metabolism; in the form of hexavalent compounds it is a carcinogen. Chromium deficient animals display impaire...

Why not choledochal cyst?
With excision as a standard procedure for treating choledochal cyst, early diagnosis becomes a central issue in reducing morbidity and mortality from that disorder. In a retrospective analysis of 35 patients t...

The effect of high cholesterol, high fat diet on rabbit plasma β-VLDL and its interaction with macrophage
Rabbits were fed on 1 % cholesterol and 10 % rape seed oil (group A) or lard (group B). Plasma cholesterol and triglyceride level of group A was strikingly lower than that of group B. No difference was found i...

Liver transplantation in Taiwan: the Chang Gung experience
Between March 1984 and February 1991, six orthotopic liver transplantations were performed at the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan. The indications for transplantation were Wilson's disease (5 patients) ...

The GST T1 and CYP2E1 genotypes are possible factors causing vinyl chloride induced abnormal liver function
Vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) is hepatotoxic as well as carcinogenic in humans. There are reports that exposure to VCM seems to induce abnormal liver function, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, portal hypertension, a...

The basic dyke swarms in the Wudang block and its geological significance
The basic dyke swarms, which have been deformed and metamorphosed, are widespread in the Wudang block. They are geochemicaiiy characterized by the continental tholeiites, and their Sm-Nd isochron age is (782 ±...

Fountain rockburst and inductive rockburst
A new test method—the load relaxation test after the peak value, was used to investigate rockburst proneness. Two new concepts—fountain and inductive rockbursts, were proposed to distinguish two kinds of rockb...

A kind of bivariate cubic splines and related linear operators on type-1 triangulation
Let Δ mn be a grid partition of curves that divide a rectangular domain into a finite or countable number of cells inR 2, called type-1 triangulations. A kind of...

Modeling sensible heat flux using estimates of soil and vegetation temperatures: the HEIFE and IMGRASS experiments
Heat fluxes at heterogeneous land surfaces are often modeled using single-source resistance-type transport equations, i.e. assuming horizontal homogeneity of the land surface and of the boundary layer. Large d...

Biases in AMIP model simulations of the east China monsoon system
AMIP model simulations of the east China (5–50°N; 105–122°E) monsoon system are analyzed to study coherent relationships between rainfall and wind annual cycle biases. A comparison with observed interannual v...

Living-Donor Liver Transplantation in Taiwan
Living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is currently the only effective means to significantly increase the graft supply in societies where cadaveric donation is very limited, as in Taiwan. Since the Kaohsiu...

Visual-Based Anomaly Detection for BGP Origin AS Change (OASC) Events
To complement machine intelligence in anomaly event analysis and correlation, in this paper, we investigate the possibility of a human-interactive visual-based anomaly detection system for faults and security ...

Aseismic negative dislocation model and deformation analysis of crustal horizontal movement during 1999–2001 in the northeast margin of Qinghai-**zang block
Through numerical simulation for GPS data, aseismic negative dislocation model for crustal horizontal movement during 1999–2001 in the northeast margin of Qinghai-**zang block is presented, combined with the s...

Effect of heat exchange on the interfacial instability of gas-liquid jet
The classical linear instability theory was applied to the planar stratified two-layers flow with high speed compressible gas layer impacting on incompressible viscous liquid layer. The walls were kept at diff...

Ionized calcium changes during living-donor liver transplantation in patients with and without administration of blood-bank products
Exogenous citrate load from blood transfusion during orthotopic liver transplantation is thought to be the main cause of ionized hypocalcemia, which may result in hemodynamic instability. This implies that if ...

Evolutionary and biomedical implications of a Schistosoma japonicum complementary DNA resource
Schistosoma japonicum causes schistosomiasis in humans and livestock in the Asia-Pacific region. Knowledge of the genome of this parasite should improve understanding of schistosome-host interactions, biomedical ...

Feature Selection for Fast Image Classification with Support Vector Machines
According to statistical learning theory, we propose a feature selection method using support vector machines (SVMs). By exploiting the power of SVMs, we integrate the two tasks, feature selection and classifi...

A UML profile for framework modeling
The current standard Unified Modeling Language (UML) could not model framework flexibility and extendibility adequately due to lack of appropriate constructs to distinguish framework hot-spots from kernel elem...

Cytoprotective response of A1, a Bcl-2 homologue expressed in mature human neutrophils and promyelocytic HL-60 cells, to oxidant stress-induced cell death
The ability to generate reactive oxidative intermediates is one of the quintessential properties of mature human neutrophils. Endogenously generated oxidants have been shown to be an important mechanism underl...
