Water Body Distributions Across Scales: A Remote Sensing Based Comparison of Three Arctic Tundra Wetlands [PDF]

, 2013
Water bodies are ubiquitous features in Arctic wetlands. Ponds, i.e., waters with a surface area smaller than 104 m2, have been recognized as hotspots of biological activity and greenhouse gas emissions but are not well inventoried.

Anthropometric measurements of the body composition of cancer patients determine the precise role of the body surface area and the calculation of the dose of chemotherapy [PDF]

, 2012
The calculation of an accurate dose of chemotherapy for oncological patients reduces the possible medication errors and the toxicity of the body and so it improves the outcome of the treatment (survival).

Atenolol versus losartan in children and young adults with Marfan's syndrome [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND : Aortic-root dissection is the leading cause of death in Marfan's syndrome. Studies suggest that with regard to slowing aortic-root enlargement, losartan may be more effective than beta-blockers, the current standard therapy in most centers.

Procalcitonin as New Proinflammatory Marker in Burn Patients

Polytechnic Journal, 2021
Procalcitonin (PCT) is a 116 amino acid peptide with a sequence identical to that of prohormone of calcitonin but devoid of hormonal activity. The aim of this study was to determine PCT and it using as a new prognostic pro-inflammatory marker in burn ...
