Microdeletions and microduplications are recurrent in the q11.2 region of chromosome 22.The 22q11.2 duplication syndrome is an extremely variable disorder with a phenotype ranging from severe intellectual disability, facial dysmorphism, heart defects, and urogenital abnormalities to very mild symptoms.Both benign and malignant hematological entitie
Intermediate syndrome (IMS) is a major cause of death from respiratory failure following acute organophosphate poisoning.The objective of this study was to determine repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) predictors of IMS that would assist in patient management and clinical research.Seventy-eight consenting symptomatic patients with organophosphate po
Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment and led to a significant increase in patient survival rates and quality of life.However, the effectiveness of current immunotherapies is limited by various factors, including immune evasion mechanisms and serious side effects.Hydrogels are a type of medical material with an ideal biocompatibility, v
Astaxanthin (AST) is a product made from marine organisms that has been used as an anti-cancer supplement.It reduces pontin expression and induces apoptosis in SKBR3, a breast cancer cell line.Using Western blotting and qRT-PCR analyses, this study revealed that in the T47D and BT20 breast cancer cell lines, AST inhibits expression of pontin and mu
This paper presents a parallax-robust video stitching technique for timely synchronized surveillance video.An efficient two-stage video stitching procedure is proposed in this paper to build wide Field-of-View (FOV) videos for surveillance applications.In the stitching model calculation stage, we develop a layered warping algorithm Reptile Food to
