DIABETES MELLITUS IN ACROMEGALY: PREVALENCE, PATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL PARTICULARS AND TREATMENT STRATEGIES


Resources endowment, income distribution and needs for techno-logies among peri-urban smallholders in the Gambia

One reason of the modest adoption of improved technologies by smallholder farmers is that the majority of them are resource constrained.Structural constraints at the households level and institutional weaknesses have often prevented most of the farmers from joining the economic development process.This study analyses the production resources in rel

Multi-constraint non-negative matrix factorization for community detection: orthogonal regular sparse constraint non-negative matrix factorization

Abstract Community detection is an important method to analyze the characteristics and structure of community networks, which can excavate the potential links between nodes and further discover subgroups from complex networks.However, most of the existing methods only unilaterally consider the direct link eeboo coupons topology without comprehensiv

A spark energy deposition model in mixture fraction space for simulations of turbulent non-premixed flame ignition

Predicting the ignition probability remains important for designing reliable combustors.A spark ignition model in mixture fraction space is proposed and used in a Large Eddy Simulation (LES)-Conditional Moment Closure (CMC) simulation of initiation of a n-heptane spray swirl flame.The model is based on including source terms for the enthalpy and sp

Familiarizing conservation-restoration students with risk assessment and risk management using outdoor sculptures as case studies

Aim.The paper describes a problem-based learning assignment through which conservation-restoration students become acquainted with the assessment and management of risks to cultural heritage.The assignment includes identification of threats, writing incident scenarios, proposing mitigation measures and identifying persons/institutions that can impl
