The important role of vetiver grass roots in preventing water erosion and mass movement has been well recognized, though the detailed influence of the grass roots on soil has not been addressed.Through planting vetiver grass at the Kadoorie Farm in Hong Kong and leaving it to grow without artificial maintenance, the paper studies the influence of v
Cardiovascular effects in patrol officers are associated with fine particulate matter from brake wear and engine emissions
Abstract Background Exposure to fine particulate matter air pollutants (PM2.5) affects heart rate variability parameters, and levels of serum proteins associated with inflammation, hemostasis and thrombosis.This study investigated sources potentially responsible for Drum Sticks cardiovascular and hematological effects in highway patrol troopers.Res
Evaluation of Efficiency of Ivermectin Lotion in Comparison With Permethrine Shampoo and Dimethicone Lotion for Treatment of Headlice (Pediculus humanus capitis) in Areas Covered by Health Centers of Islamshar City , Tehran, Iran in 2019
Objective: Head lice infestation also known as a serious health problem in developing and developed countries.The prevalence of pediculosis in children and female is higher than others.The infestation may cause absence Foot Rests of student from school and make their parents upset.The aim of current study was to evaluate the WHO recommended insecti
The behaviour of sea snakes (Emydocephalus annulatus) shifts with the tides
Abstract Tidal cycles are known Drum Sticks to affect the ecology of many marine animals, but logistical obstacles have discouraged behavioural studies on sea snakes in the wild.Here, we analyse a large dataset (1,445 observations of 126 individuals) to explore tidally-driven shifts in the behaviour of free-ranging turtle-headed sea snakes (Emydoce
Evolutionary autonomous agents and the nature of apraxia
Abstract Background Evolutionary autonomous agents are robots or robot simulations whose controller is a dynamical neural network and whose evolution occurs autonomously under the guidance of a fitness function without the detailed or explicit direction of an external programmer.They are embodied agents with a simple neural network controller Liqui
