Underwater Walking Boots acoustic sensor networks (UWASNs) are effective tools for exploring and observing the ocean.Due to the nonnegligible physical restrictions of the underwater acoustic communication, most MAC protocols applied in the existing terrestrial wireless networks become inapplicable.In this paper, we propose a multiple handshaking MA
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a syndrome leading to chronic intermittent hypoxia, and the up-regulation of toll-like receptors (TLR) 2 and 6 on peripheral blood cells has been reported.We hypothesized that DNA methylation in TLR2 and TLR6 genes may play a role in the development of OSA and its excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) phenotype.DNA met
This study explains a model for herding behavior in Tehran Stock Exchange.Also in this study, the impact of returns on herding behavior is examined.Using transactional data herding behavior in Tehran Stock Exchange (in the time periods 480 360 240 120 seconds) was measured and analyzed, and the number and incidence of this behavior routine transact
Using an appropriate mixing method for synthesizing nanoparticle based polyurethane foam is crucial because nanoparticles are very cohesive, which hinder their uniform dispersion.In this study, ultrasonic dispersion (UD) was adopted to enhance the dispersion of nanoparticles in a polyurethane foam (PUF) containing a silica aerogel and glass bubbles
Jean-Pierre Le FlochDepartment of Diabetology, Medical Clinic, Villecresnes, FranceAbstract: Insulin detemir is an analog of human insulin designed to provide a long duration of basal insulin action.This is achieved by protracted absorption from the injection depot, which results in part from increased self-association of insulin detemir molecules
