THE MITOCHONDRIAL T16189C POLYMORPHISM IS ASSOCIATED WITH CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE IN MIDDLE EUROPEAN POPULATIONS.

The mitochondrial T16189C polymorphism is associated with coronary artery disease in Middle European populations.

BackgroundThe pivotal role of mitochondria in energy production and free Lip Balm radical generation suggests that the mitochondrial genome could have an important influence on the expression of multifactorial age related diseases.Substitution of T to C at nucleotide position 16189 in the hypervariable D-loop of the control region (CR) of mitochond

Mechanical Characteristics of Structures and Ground Deformation Caused by Shield Tunneling Under-Passing Highways in Complex Geological Conditions Based on the MJS Method

This study defined the height ratio of soft-rock strata and established a numerical model for analyzing shield construction in upper-soft, lower-hard composite strata together with field monitoring data.In this way, the influence of shield tunneling while passing under the pile foundation of the culvert at a short distance (the shortest distance is

Rhythm perception is shared between audio and haptics

Abstract A surface texture is perceived through both the sound and vibrations produced while being explored by our fingers.Because of their common origin, both modalities have a strong influence on each other, particularly at above 60 Hz for which vibrotactile perception and Ionenaustauscher Granulat pitch perception share common neural processes.H
