Abstract Background Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) associated neurocognitive disorders (HANDs) are accompanied by significant morbidity, which persists despite the use of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART).While activated microglia play a role in pathogenesis, changes in their immune effector functions, including phagocytosis and proinf
Abstract In extended supersymmetric models with a hidden sector the lightest R-parity odd particle can reside in the hidden sector and act as dark matter.We consider the case when the hidden sector has ultraweak interactions with the visible sector.An interesting phenomenon arises if the LSP of the visible sector is charged in which case it will de
Restrictive dieters are those who expect to achieve body shape and weight control through dieting.However, they often have difficulty suppressing the desire to consume food when confronted with it.It has been shown that when high- and low-calorie foods are presented together, the attention of restrictive eaters is preferentially directed to high-ca
The theoretical review of the last femtoscopy results for the systems created in ultrarelativistic A+A, p+p, and p+Pb collisions is presented.The basic model, allowing to describe the interferometry data at SPS, RHIC, and LHC, is the hydrokinetic model.The model allows one to avoid the principal problem of the particlization of the medium at nonspa
Background: A primipara with multiple pregnancy who booked for antenatal care at 21 weeks presented with vaginal bleeding and pedal oedema at the 27 th week.She had had five previous ultrasound scans that gave Collections conflicting results.Materials and Methods: The patient was therefore sent for a confirmatory scan, which was performed using a l
