BACKGROUND:Modern RNA interference (RNAi) methodologies using small interfering RNA (siRNA) oligonucleotide duplexes or episomally synthesized hairpin RNA are valuable tools for the analysis of gene function in the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica.However, these approaches still require time-consuming procedures including transfection and d
Abstract Background High-cost, time-consuming and complex processes of several current approaches limit the use of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) for monogenic disorders in clinical application.Thus, a more cost-effective and easily implementable approach is required.Methods We established a low-cost and convenient test to noninvasively dedu
The problem of chip breaking and evacuation is the key point of staggered teeth boring and trepanning association (BTA) drilling.The factors that influence chip breaking with staggered teeth BTA deep hole drilling are analyzed by using the chip bending deformation mechanism for chip formation and flow through the rake face and chip breaker.This stu
Purpose: Dildos To assess the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy using an abdominal compression technique and modified fractionation regimen (5-10 fractions) in patients with small-sized hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods: A total of 101 patients with small-sized hepatocellular carcinoma treated with stereotactic body radiatio
