Congenital Chagas disease, a neglected tropical disease, endemic in Latin America, is associated with premature labor and miscarriage.During vertical transmission the parasite 2649-20 Trypanosoma cruzi (T.cruzi) crosses the placental barrier.However, the exact mechanism of the placental infection remains unclear.We review the congenital transmissio
This study explores highly eco-efficient preplaced aggregate concrete mixtures having superior tensile characteristics and impact resistance developed for pavement and infrastructure applications.A fully recycled granular skeleton consisting of recycled concrete aggregate and recycled tire rubber granules, and steel wire fibers from scrap tires are
Rodent pups use vocalizations to communicate with one or both parents in biparental species, such as California mice (Peromyscus californicus).Previous studies have shown California mice developmentally exposed to endocrine disrupting chemicals, bisphenol A (BPA) or ethinyl estradiol (EE), demonstrate later compromised parental behaviors.Reductions
We need data sets of images and subjective scores to develop robust no reference (or blind) visual quality metrics for consumer applications.These applications have many uncontrolled variables because the camera creates the original media and the impairment simultaneously.We do not fully understand how this impacts the integrity of our subjective d
