Abstract:

The National Center of Oncology in Nouakchott is equipped with a linear accelerator which provides two energies in photon regime 6 MV and 18 MV. The basic dosimetric data required for quality of operation, in the clinical routine of the accelerator for photon beams are percentage depth dose (PDD) curves and beam profile (BP) curves. The aim of this work is to measure the percentage depth dose (PDD) and beam/dose profile (BP) for 6 MV and 18 MV photon beams for different field sizes and for different Skin-Source-Distance (SSD), and to compare the measured results with the results calculated by

Abstract:

The focus of this research was to calculate initial beam characteristics of a 6 MV X-rays with flattening filter (FF) from Elekta Versa-HD linear accelerator (Linac) using the Tool for Particle Simulation (TOPAS) Monte Carlo (MC) simulation code. TOPAS 3.6 simulated data was compared with the measured data. During simulation, all the main component were simulated including Linac head, Multi-Leaf Collimators (MLCs), and uniform water phantom, while the SNC 3D scanner phantom and SNC125c Chamber were used for measurements.

Abstract. Changing climate conditions on Greenland influence the snow accumulation rate and surface mass balance (SMB) on the ice sheet and, ultimately, its shape. This can in turn affect local climate via orography and albedo variations and, potentially, remote areas via changes in ocean circulation triggered by melt water or calving from the ice sheet. Examining these interactions in the IPSL global model requires improving the representation of snow at the ice sheet surface. In this paper, we present a new snow scheme implemented in LMDZ, the atmospheric component of the IPSL coupled model.

Abstract:

Sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) regulates the contraction of vascular smooth muscle and leads to a change in arterial blood pressure (BP). It was observed that SNA, vascular contractility, and BP are heightened in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) during exercise. The exercise pressor reflex (EPR), a neural mechanism responsible for BP response to activation of muscle afferent nerve, is a determinant of the exaggerated exercise-induced BP rise in PAD. Based on recent results obtained from a series of studies in PAD patients and a rat model of PAD, this review will shed light on SN

Abstract:

Photochemical decontamination (PCD) of platelet concentrates, with adequate preservation of platelet function, has been shown using 8- methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) and long wavelength UV light (UVA). To further evaluate this technique, models for the inactivation of pathogenic human cell-associated viruses and integrated proviral sequences are required. We have assessed the ability of the PCD technique to inactivate cell-associated human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) in platelet concentrates. We correlated PCD inhibition of HIV-1 infectivity with 8-MOP-DNA adduct formation in contaminating nucle

Introduction: Dietary interventions are modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). In particular, the plant-based diet (PBD), characterized by a higher intake of plant-based foods, has been associated with lower CVD risk. In contrast, the western diet (WD), containing higher intakes of processed and animal products, has been associated with increased CVD risk. This review compares the effects of PBDs and WDs on CVD risk factors including blood pressure (BP), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is an atherosclerotic disease that is associated with poor vascular function, walking impairment, and reduced quality of life. Land-based exercise therapy (LBET) is frequently recommended to improve walking and reduce symptoms. Recently, evidence has suggested that heated-water exercise therapy (HWET) is an effective intervention for PAD. However, the efficacy of LBET versus HWET in PAD patients had not been elucidated. Therefore, we sought to compare effects of LBET with HWET on cardiovascular function, exercise tolerance, physical function, and body compositio

Recombinant strains of the virus were reported to cause tuber necrotic ringspot disease (PTNRD) in many potato-growing regions of the world. In the last few years, a new recombinant PVYNTN-NW that belongs to PVYZ (3) has been reported in the neighboring Syria. It included three recombination patterns, SYR-I, SYR-II, and
