Unlabelled: Diaphragm dysfunction develops in central nervous system damage, chest injuries, complications of cardiac surgery, long-term artificial lung ventilation, respiratory diseases. Anatomical morphological features of phrenic nerves allow to effectively use electromagnetic stimulation methods for functional recovery of the diaphragm in different pathological conditions. Invasive and non-invasive, electric and magnetic methods of stimulation are used depending on the severity of manifestations of the diaphragm dysfunction and its genesis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTwo fucosylated chondroitin sulfates were isolated from the sea cucumbers and using a conventional extraction procedure in the presence of papain, followed by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel. Their composition was characterized in terms of quantitative monosaccharide and sulfate content, and structures were mainly elucidated using 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. As revealed by the data of the NMR spectra, both polysaccharides along with the usual fucosyl branches contained rare disaccharide branches α-D-GalNAc46-(1→2)-α-L-Fuc34 → attached to -3 of the GlcA of the backbone ( = H or SO).

Harms, or Ming aralia, is a medicinal plant of the Araliaceae family, which is highly valued for its antitoxic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antibacterial, anti-asthmatic, adaptogenic, and other properties. The plant can be potentially used to treat diabetes and its complications, ischemic brain damage, and Parkinson's disease.

We hypothesize that his outcomes are attributable, in part, to a germline deletion and somatic substitution.
Methods: Retrospective single-patient chart review was performed at the London Regional Cancer Program, as well as a structured literature search spanning all years in PubMed of BRCA and GNAS mutations in pancreatic cancer.
Light is a crucial factor affecting plant growth and development. Besides providing the energy for photosynthesis, light serves as a sensory cue to control the adaptation of plants to environmental changes. We used the etiolated maize (Zea mays ) seedlings as a model system to study the red light-regulated growth.
