Production diseases are highly prevalent in modern dairy herds, resulting in lost productivity and reduced animal welfare.Two important production diseases are mastitis and metabolic disorders.The availability of robust diagnostic tools that can detect animals at early stages of disease is crucial to prevent the high costs associated with lost prod
Nonlinear Dynamic Behavior of Winding Hoisting Rope under Head Sheave Axial Wobbles
Axial wobbles of JUNIPER BERRY the head sheave due to manufacturing accuracy and installation technology can exert periodic lateral excitations to the winding hoisting rope.A hoisting rope consists of a constant catenary rope from the drum to the head sheave and a variable vertical rope from the head sheave to the conveyance.The longitudinal and la
Blinding in trials of interventional procedures is possible and worthwhile [version 2; referees: 3 approved]
In this paper, we use evidence from our earlier review of surgical randomised controlled trials with a placebo arm to show that blinding in trials of interventional procedures is feasible.We give examples of ingenious strategies that have been used to simulate the active procedure and to make the Dummy Case placebo control indistinguishable from th
Lactate potentiates angiogenesis and neurogenesis in experimental intracerebral hemorrhage
Brain hemorrhage: Lactate aids in recovery After a blood vessel bursts in the brain, lactate, a metabolic intermediary, accumulates around the bleeding site to increase new blood vessels and Overlay Membrane neurons.A team led by Tao Tang and Yang Wang at Central South University in Changsha, China, experimentally induced brain hemorrhage in rats a
Engineering CAR-T Cells for Improved Function Against Solid Tumors
Genetic engineering T cells to create clinically applied chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells has led to improved patient outcomes for some forms of hematopoietic malignancies.While this Conveyor Toasters has inspired the biomedical community to develop similar strategies to treat solid tumor patients, challenges such as the immunosuppressive ch
