Tuberculosis is rapidly reemerging as a major health problem due Monopod to rising incidence of HIV cases across the globe.Central nervous system involvement is rare, but rarely multiple intracerebral granulomas can occur or occasional solitary tuberculoma also develops.The authors report a unique case of 24-year-old woman suffering from pulmonary
The impact of stratified immunity on the transmission dynamics of influenza
Although empirical studies show that protection against influenza infection in humans is closely related to antibody titres, influenza epidemics are often described under the assumption that individuals are either susceptible or not.Here we develop a model LADIES SHOES HEEL in which antibody titre classes are enumerated explicitly and mapped onto a
Miniature bioinspired artificial compound eyes: microfabrication technologies, photodetection and applications
As an outstanding visual system for insects and crustaceans to cope with the challenges of survival, compound eye has many unique advantages, such as wide field of view, rapid response, infinite depth of field, low aberration and fast motion capture.However, the complex composition of their optical systems also presents significant challenges for m
Explanation of the mechanisms of unsteady gas flow through the turbocharger seal system, including thermal and structural interactions
Gas flow in the seal system can be expected during the operation of a turbocharger and is associated with negative effects on the quality of the lubricant or turbocharger efficiency.Gas flow also affects particulate matter production due to lubricant entrainment in the compressor or turbine.The prediction of gas flow rates depends on many design pa
