Prescription drugs misuse in “clubbers” and disco goers in Ibiza
(2020-12-15)Background: Prescription drugs misuse and its related risks are considered a worldwide public health issue. Current trends show that the extent of such phenomenon may not be limited to subjects with psychiatric disorders, ... -
Prescriptive Unitarity from Positive Geometries
(2024-03-01)In this paper, we define the momentum amplituhedron in the four-dimensional split-signature space of dual momenta. It encodes scattering amplitudes at tree level and loop integrands for N=4 super Yang-Mills in the planar ... -
The presence and the effects of neuropeptide Y in rat anococcygeus muscle
(1997-10-29)Isolated anococcygeus muscle from male rats was examined for the presence of neuropeptide Y-immunoreactive nerves and for the effects of neuropeptide Y on its tone and its contractile/relaxant responses to electrical field ... -
Presence of a pre-hospital enhanced care team reduces on scene time and improves triage compliance for stab trauma
(2019-09-06)Background: A reduction in pre-hospital scene time for patients with penetrating trauma is associated with reduced mortality, when combined with appropriate hospital triage. This study investigated the relationship between ... -
Presence of metals in herbal extracts
(2012-11-06)Do metals from raw herbs transport into herbal preparations during manufacture? Amira Guirguis and colleagues take a look at the issue using St John’s wort as an example. -
The presence of mind
(John Benjamins Publishing Company, 1999)Is our daily account of ourselves justified by a new science? Or, will our self-understanding be unaffected? This text argues that beliefs and desires have a rightful place in the explanation of action. Eliminativist ... -
Presence of Neuropeptide-y in the rat seminal-vesicle and its effects on Noradrenaline-induced and nerve-induced contractions.
(1994-11)1 Immunohistochemical and functional studies have been performed to localize and determine the effects of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the rat seminal vesicle. 2 An abundant presence of NPY-immunoreactive nerves, mainly ... -
Present Status and Future Programs of the n_TOF Experiment
(EDP Sciences, 2012)The neutron time-of-flight facility n_TOF at CERN, Switzerland, operational since 2001, delivers neutrons using the Proton Synchrotron (PS) 20 GeV/c proton beam impinging on a lead spallation target. The facility combines ... -
Presentations of Inverse Semigroups their Kernels and Extensions
(2011)Let S be an inverse semigroup and let π:S→T be a surjective homomorphism with kernel K. We show how to obtain a presentation for K from a presentation for S, and vice versa. We then investigate the relationship between the ... -
Presenting signs and patient co-variables in Gaucher disease : outcome of the Gaucher Earlier Diagnosis Consensus (GED-C) Delphi initiative
(2019-05-01)Background: Gaucher disease (GD) presents with a range of signs and symptoms. Physicians can fail to recognise the early stages of GD owing to a lack of disease awareness, which can lead to significant diagnostic delays ... -
Pressure Biofeedback: A useful tool in the quantification of abdominal muscular dysfunction?
(2000)Pressure biofeedback is a tool designed to facilitate muscle re-education by detecting movement of the lumbar spine associated with a deep abdominal contraction in relation to an air-filled reservoir. Pressure biofeedback ... -
Pressure losses associated with slurry flow in horizontal pipelines
(University of Hertfordshire, 2003)The flow of solid liquid mixtures (slurries) has attracted much attention in research work because of its importance to industry. Prediction of pressure losses associated with slurry flow helps pipe designers select the ... -
Pressure ulcers and incontinence-associated dermatitis : effectiveness of the pressure ulcer classification education tool on classification by nurses
(2010)Context : Previous studies report that pressure ulcer classification and differentiation from incontinence associated dermatitis are difficult. Incorrect classification and differentiation result in incorrect prevention ... -
