Are serum quantitative hepatitis b surface antigen levels, liver histopathology and viral loads related in chronic hepatitis b-infected patients?

The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2016
Background/Aims: Fluctuations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA and alanine transaminase (ALT) levels complicate assessment of the phases of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection and correct identification of the inactive HBV carrier state.

High-Accuracy Static Baseline Estimation using NavIC L5 Observables

Navigation, 2022
The estimation of static baselines using NavIC L5 double-differenced (DD) pseudoranges and carrier phases is investigated. We estimate the baseline with increasing accuracy by using the DD pseudoranges, smoothing the DD pseudoranges with the DD carrier ...

A Simple Method to Differentiate between Free-Carrier Recombination and Trapping Centers in the Bandgap of the p-Type Semiconductor

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
In this research, the ranges of the localized states in which the recombination and the trapping rates of free carriers dominate the entire transition rates of free carriers in the bandgap of the p-type semiconductor are described.

Impact of APOE ε4 Carrier Status on Associations Between Subthreshold, Positive Amyloid-β Deposition, Brain Function, and Cognitive Performance in Cognitively Normal Older Adults: A Prospective Study

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
BackgroundA growing body of evidence suggests a deteriorating effect of subthreshold amyloid-beta (Aβ) accumulation on cognition before the onset of clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

Combining transient dynamics and logistic‐asymptotic growth to study the recovery of two seabird populations after rat eradication

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...
