Vascular inflammation mediated by overly activated immune cells is a significant cause of morbidity and Ground Clamp mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Several mouse models to study the pathogenesis of SLE are currently in use, many of which have different mechanisms of pathogenesis.The diversity of these models allows interrogation of
Objectives: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of self-injected Foot Care subcutaneous depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA-SC) compared to health-worker-administered intramuscular DMPA (DMPA-IM) in Senegal and to assess how including practice or demonstration injections in client self-injection training affects estimates.Study design: We develo
Abstract Background Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) are a source of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) that can be used to develop molecular markers for genetic studies.The availability of ESTs for Quercus robur and Quercus petraea provided a unique opportunity to develop microsatellite markers to accelerate research aimed at studying adaptation of thes
Future generations of flight control systems, such as those for unmanned autonomous vehicles Masturbators (UAVs), are likely to be more adaptive and intelligent to cope with the extra safety and reliability requirements due to pilotless operations.An efficient fault detection and isolation (FDI) system is paramount and should be capable of monitori
