This document proposes 5 scientific research projects and 6 core projects for a Program Project Grant from the NIH to study detection of vulnerable plaque and vulnerable patients. The 5 research projects are: 1) MRI imaging of inflammation and vulnerable plaque in humans and animals; 2) Intravascular thermography to detect inflammation in plaque; 3) Development of new MRI and CT nanoparticle contrast agents; 4) Development of enhanced intravascular and surface MRI coils; 5) Imaging of vulnerable patients using CT and a new calcium scoring system in humans. The 6 core projects provide support in pathology, MRI, microCT, image processing, data analysis, and administration.
Schmitz et al studied the use of ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) particles to enhance MRI imaging of atherosclerosis in rabbits. They administered different doses of USPIO to rabbits and imaged them at various time points up to 48 hours later. Their results showed decreased signal intensity in atherosclerotic plaques compared to surrounding tissues after USPIO injection, indicating the particles accumulated in plaques and allowed better visualization and characterization of plaques with MRI.
El documento describe las diversas herramientas tecnológicas disponibles para docentes y estudiantes universitarios, como Facebook, Skype, YouTube, Wikipedia, wikis, Scribd y Google Docs, y cómo estas herramientas pueden usarse para mejorar el desempeño, aumentar el conocimiento y construir comunidades de aprendizaje. Además, señala que estos recursos en línea, aunque ampliamente disponibles de forma gratuita, aún no se explotan con toda la imaginación y audacia posibles en el ámbito de la educación superior
El documento describe los objetivos de crear áreas recreativas en la comunidad Calle Vieja la Fila. Los objetivos son embellecer la comunidad al aire libre mediante la creación de espacios seguros para que las personas y los niños pasen tiempo jugando y recreándose.
The document discusses children's rights, defining a child as under 18. It outlines that children's rights include the right to association with parents, identity, and basic needs like protection, food, education, healthcare. Children also have rights to equal civil rights and freedom from discrimination based on attributes like gender, religion, disability. Interpretations of children's rights range from allowing autonomous action to being free from abuse, though what is considered abuse can vary. Other definitions include rights to care and nurturing.

The document discusses HCL Infosystems' enterprise distribution business. It states that HCL has positioned itself as the largest technology distribution company in India with an effective pan-India presence and a wide array of multi-brand IT products. It also provides after-sales support. HCL's enterprise distribution business saw a 72% year-on-year revenue growth. HCL partners with leading global IT brands and aims to strengthen their enterprise presence through its network of over 3,500 channel partners across India.
This document summarizes a study comparing undergraduate real estate education programs in Zimbabwe. The study had three objectives: 1) establish if there is consensus on real estate education in Zimbabwe, 2) compare Zimbabwean real estate curricula, and 3) benchmark Zimbabwean programs against RICS-accredited programs in Africa. The study found both similarities and differences between Zimbabwean programs in terms of course coverage, credits, and departments offering degrees. It also found Zimbabwean programs are generally comparable to programs in South Africa but lack consensus on some aspects. Recommendations include seeking industry and student input, pursuing international accreditation, and forming partnerships locally and abroad.
El documento resume un estudio realizado en la plaza Esmeralda para determinar la calidad del aire mediante el uso de líquenes bioindicadores. El estudio evaluó el estado de la plaza, incluidos los juegos, tachos de basura y acceso, e identificó varias especies de líquenes crustosos y foliosos en los árboles, cuantificando su cobertura. Los resultados mostraron áreas que podrían mejorarse para lograr un mejor estado general de la plaza.
The document describes Weatherford's sand-tolerant pump (STP), which is designed to operate in sandy wells where sand production causes excessive wear on standard rod pumps. The STP uses a wiper assembly and filter coupling to push sand upwards and away from the critical barrel/plunger interface, extending pump runtime by over 450% compared to conventional pumps. By keeping sand out of this area and lubricating it, the STP reduces workover costs, downtime, and production losses in wells with high sand levels.
