Liver fibrosis represents a progressive pathological condition that can culminate in severe hepatic dysfunction, potentially advancing to cirrhosis and liver cancer.The extent of liver fibrosis is intrinsically associated with the quantity of collagen fibers.Although liver biopsy and ultrasound imaging are standard diagnostic tools, their applicati

Background: There is a slow but steady increase in inhalant use in India among adolescent age group.There is a very few studies regarding inhalant use disorder in India.No study has been reported from West Bengal.Aims and Objectives: In our study, we aimed to study the sociodemographic and clinical profile of patients using inhalants.Materials and
Genome-wide Association Study of Personality Traits in the Long Life Family Study
Personality traits have been shown to be associated with longevity and healthy aging.In order to discover novel genetic modifiers associated with personality traits as related with longevity, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) on personality factors assessed by NEO-FFI in individuals enrolled in the Long Life Family Study (LLFS), a
Inter-ELM pedestal localized fluctuations in tokamaks: Summary of multi-machine observations
HAWTHORN A variety of experimental studies on pedestal localized fluctuations appearing in between crashes of edge localized modes (ELMs) across several tokamaks have been reviewed and summarized.The onset of the inter-ELM fluctuations is correlated with the evolution of the pedestal gradients.Three profile recovery phases are extracted, which are
Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and computational studies of Schiff base complexes of tin(IV) chloride
Reaction of anhydrous tin(IV) chloride with mono functional bidentate Schiff bases (sbnH), in 1:2 molar ratios, gives complexes of the type, [(sbn)2SnCl2] Drinkware Sets (1-4) (where, n=1-4; sb=2-(((4-chlorophenyl)imino)methyl)phenol, sb1H, I; 2-(((4-bromophenyl)imino)methyl) phenol, sb2H, II; 2-(((4-chlorophenyl)imino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol, sb3H
