Summary: Many acute and chronic diseases affect the distal lung alveoli.Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) lines are needed to better model these diseases.We used de-identified human remnant transplant lungs to develop a method to establish AEC lines.The lines grow well in 2-dimensional (2D) culture as epithelial Badges monolayers expressing lung proge
The case of a 22-year-old man with cannabis-induced obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is described in this case report.There is ample literature available regarding cannabis-induced psychotic and mood symptoms but there is dearth of literature about cannabis association with OCD.The importance of recognising cannabis-induced OCD is Panties emphas
Osteoporosis is the major public health issue worldwide.It is the most common bone porosity, especially in women, in which elder people are more susceptible to skeletal delicacy and fracture and is caused when the skeletal mass and microarchitecture degrades with aging.Age, deficient bone growth, early menopause, and oxidative stress are the factor
Finding sources of airborne chemicals with mobile sensing systems finds applications across safety, security, environmental monitoring, and medical domains.In this paper, we present an algorithm based on Source Term Estimation for odor source localization that is coupled with a navigation method based on partially observable Markov decision process
Moose (Alces alces) have evolved to store adequate body fat to emerge from winter in adequate nutritional condition that is key Panties to annual productivity and neonatal survival.Blood consumption by winter ticks (Dermacentor albipictus) affects survival and productivity of moose, often resulting in marked local and regional die-offs of calves.Co
