Cytokines secreted in response to invading micro-organisms are important mediators of
detrimental hemodynamic and metabolic changes in the host. To test whether cachectin/TNF …

Power amplifiers (PAs) are inherently nonlinear devices and are used in virtually all
communications systems. Digital baseband predistortion is a highly cost-effective way to …

Samples of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) were harvested from sites manifesting features
characteristic of active disease including inflammation, periodontal attachment loss, and …

In this report we describe an experimental model of cachexia that fulfills the criteria of an
early effect with a small tumor mass not related to the growth rate of the tumor, and …

A growing body of evidence suggests a role for cytokines in the mechanisms responsible for
preterm parturition associated with intrauterine infection. Interleukin 6, a polyfunctional …

OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to compare the value of amniotic fluid tests for the detection of
microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity and in the prediction of the amniocentesis-to …

The in vivo alterations in organ-specific substrate processing and endogenous mediator
production induced by endotoxin were investigated in healthy volunteers. An endotoxin …

Objective: Our goal was to compare the value of amniotic fluid tests in the detection of
microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity and in the relationship with the amniocentesis-to …

BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence points to a important role for inflammatory cytokines
for the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease. AIM: To compare the secretion rate of tumour …

This paper proposes a new behavioral model to treat memory effects in nonlinear power
amplifiers (PAs). Phenomena such as asymmetries in lower and upper intermodulation …
