ARE SYSTOLIC VELOCITY DUPLEX METRICS NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY FLOW ALIASING IN AREAS OF CRITICAL INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY STENOSIS

Are systolic velocity duplex metrics negatively affected by flow aliasing in areas of critical internal carotid artery stenosis

6-Piece Dining Set Purpose: Duplex scanning is a useful noninvasive screening tool for the detection of carotid bifurcation disease.Internal carotid artery (ICA) peak systolic velocity (PSV) and ICA/common carotid artery (CCA) PSV ratios are proven metrics determining 70%-99% ICA stenosis.A potential disadvantage of using dramatically increasing sy

Fluidized Bed Drying of Pumpkin (Cucurbita sp.) Seeds

Pumpkin seeds are a major agricultural waste from the fresh-cut produce industry.The objective of this study was to investigate the drying behavior of untreated, whole pumpkin seeds in a fluidized bed dryer at 50−80 °C (2.87 m/s), with a view to producing a high-quality pumpkin powder from dried seeds.Seeds were dried at 50−80

Dynamics of invasive mosquitoes: introduction pathways, limiting factors, and their potential role in vector-borne pathogen transmission

The blooming of global trade and travel and the intensification of global changes over the past decades are thought to be important drivers of accelerated range expansions of vector-borne pathogens (VBPs), with the potential to Serrapeptase cause severe disease outbreaks around the world.As a bridge between hosts and pathogens, mosquitoes play a ce
