The aim of this paper is to analyze 87 cases of kidney transplants obtained from nonrelated donors; in 20 of these, a donor-specific transfusion procedure4 was added to the pretreatment protocol of each recipient.
Daytime variations in glucose tolerance in people with impaired glucose tolerance
(2006-12-01)
To determine whether glucose tolerance varies throughout the day in people with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). We studied 15 healthy IGT, and 18 matched normal glucose tolerant (NGT) individuals. Blood samples were taken ...
Disturbance and repair of solitary waves in blood vessels with aneurysm
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-01-01)
This paper analyzes the effects of a local increase of radius followed by local variation of the thickness or rigidity of an elastic tube on the behavior of solitary waves. The basic equations for the analysis is a set of ...
