Muscle involvement is a common manifestation of both clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism, with serum creatine kinase (CK) elevation being probably the most common manifestation, and is seen in seat sleeve up to 90% of patients, but is usually mild (less than 10 times the upper limit of normal).Rhabdomyolysis is a distinctively uncommon presenta
Chronic pain patients can be classified into four groups: Clustering-based discriminant analysis of psychometric data from 4665 patients referred to a multidisciplinary pain centre (a SQRP study).
To subgroup chronic pain patients using psychometric data and regress the variables most responsible for subgroup discrimination.Cross-sectional, registry-based study.Chronic pain patients assessed at a multidisciplinary pain centre between 2008 and 2015.Data from the Swedish quality registry for pain rehabilitation (SQRP) were retrieved and analys
Numerical investigation of granular filter under the bed of a canal
Abstract To protect canal beds against erosion and to prevent seepage from the bottom or side of a canal, impermeable linings are often used.These linings can suffer from several problems including damage due to uplift pressure when the groundwater table is high.Thus, it is necessary to provide a drainage system under the hard lining of the canal t
Positive Autoregulation of an Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Quorum-Sensing Circuit Synchronizes the Population Response
ABSTRACT Many proteobacteria utilize acyl-homoserine lactone quorum-sensing signals.At low population densities, cells produce a basal level of signal, and when sufficient signal has accumulated in the surrounding environment, it binds to its receptor, and quorum-sensing-dependent genes can be activated.A common characteristic of acyl-homoserine la
