Materials and methods We conducted a qualitative study. Sixteen FSHD patients with varying degrees of facial …

Asymmetric heterotic orbifolds are discussed from the worldsheet perspective. Starting from Buscher’s gauging of a theory of D compact bosons the duality covariant description of Tseytlin is obtained after a non–Lorentz invariant gauge fixing. A left–over of the gauge symmetry can be used to removed …

Introduction: In clinical practice AP pelvis standard protocols are suitable for average size patients. However, as the average body size has increased over the past decades, radiographers have had to improve their practice in order to ensure that adequate image quality with minimal radiation dose to …

This study evaluated the performance of anaerobic co-digestion of cow manure (CM) and sheep manure (SM) in both batch and continuous digesters at 37 °C. Synergistic effects of co-digesting CM and SM at varying volatile solids (VS) ratios (1:0, 0:1, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3) were observed in the batch experiment, …
