A series of 2-[4-(aryl substituted) piperazin-1-yl] N, N-diphenylacetamides have been synthesized and the target compounds (3a–j) were evaluated for atypical antipsychotic activity in apomorphine induced climbing, 5-HTP induced head twitches behavior and catalepsy studies in mice. The physicoch...

The analogs of N-[4-(piperazin-1-yl)phenyl]cinnamamide were designed and synthesized by molecular hybridization approach in which part C of the designed molecule was linked through amide and carbamate functionality that improves the physicochemical properties and govern the pharmacokinetic and p...

Over the years, numerous synthetic approaches have been utilized in drug design to improve the pharmacological properties of naturally derived compounds and most importantly, minimize toxic effects associated with their transition to drugs. The reduction of complex bioderived compounds to simple...

A total of 15 rare plant species, including CR species of Abelia spathulata Siebold & Zucc., Tricularia yakusimensis Masam., Wikstroemia ganpi (Siebold & Zucc.) Maxim., EN species of Jeffersonia dubia (Maxim.) Benth. & Hook.f., Hololeion maximowiczii Kitam., Deutzia paniculata Nakai, VU species ...

This paper investigated the temporal and spatial variability of the urban heat island (UHI) effect by geographical location in the study area of Ulsan, Korea. It focuses on the relationship between geometric features and geographical locations. For this research, air temperature measurements wer...

In order to estimate the fluxes of Ra isotopes, we measured 224Ra, 226Ra, and 228Ra activities in the Ulsan Bay mixing zone. The convex upwards curvature of the plot of Ra isotope activities versus salinity for the mixing zone suggests that Ra isotopes are supplied from particles entering the mi...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in gaseous and particulate phases (n = 188) were collected in Ulsan, South Korea, over a period of one year (June 2013‒May 2014) to understand the seasonal variation and phase distribution of PAHs as well as to identify the seasonal PAH emission sources. T...

This study presents a real-time measurement-based rapid radiation distribution visualization system for radionuclide recognition, which can quickly scan a contaminated environment. The system combines a portable detector with a digital map and a program for quick data treatment. Radiation inform...

Energy depletion and global climate change have stimulated the Korean government to strengthen energy saving and efficiency measures in all sectors. However, in industrial sector where huge energy is consumed, only small portions of the high-grade waste heat from industrial processes have been u...

The concentrations, profiles, and source-receptor relationships of seven indicator polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) (#28, 52, 101, 118, 138, 153, and 180) found in soil at 25 rural, urban, and industrial sites in Ulsan, South Korea were investigated. For this study, 75 soil samples were collecte...

The Ulsan Fe–W skarn deposit is located within the Cretaceous Gyeongsang Basin in the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula. The skarn and mineralization formed along contacts between the Paleogene Gadaeri granite, limestone, partially serpentinized ultramafic rocks (dunite and harzburgite)...

ResumoCom o objetivo de comparar o consumo de oxigênio (VO2) e a frequência cardíaca (FC) alcançados nos exercício swing e clean com kettlebell (KB), em relação ao máximo e ao limiar anaeróbio ventilatório (LAV), foram avaliadas 12 mulheres treinadas em KB (idade 31 ± 7; %G 21 ± 7; VO2m...

ResumoIntroduçãoA estenose aórtica (EA) é a doença valvular mais prevalente dos idosos e afeta 8,1% dos doentes com 85 anos, condicionando a qualidade de vida.

Background and objectivesQuadratus lumborum block was first described in 2007 and currently there are descriptions of its achievement through four different injection points. This blockage provides abdominal wall and visceral analgesia, and one of its mechanisms is the dispersion of the local an...

BackgroundHypothermia occurs in up to 20% of perioperative patients. Systematic postoperative temperature monitoring is not a standard of care in Brazil and there are few publications about temperature recovery in the postoperative care unit.

MainTo analyze spatiotemporal gait parameters and the body center of mass (CoM) energy transduction at self-selected speed walking in a group of older patients with stroke.

ResumoObjetivoAvaliar os resultados do reparo das luxações acromioclaviculares (LAC) graus III e V, com âncoras sem eyelet, e comparar com outras técnicas, bem como fatores que possam interferir no resultado final.

ResumoObjetivoO objetivo deste estudo foi identificar a disfunção pulmonar e fatores relacionados ao tempo de ventilação mecânica e internação, insucesso da extubação e mortalidade em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização de miocárdio, com uso de balão intra‐aórtico.

Background and objectivesPatient self-rating based scales such as Numerical Rating Scale, Visual Analog Scale that is used for postoperative pain assessment may be problematic in geriatric or critically ill patients with communication problems. A method capable of the assessment of pain in objec...

ResumoJustificativa e objetivosO delirium do despertar após a anestesia geral com sevoflurano não tem sido relatado com frequência em adultos como nas crianças. Este estudo teve como objetivo determinar a incidência de delirium do despertar em pacientes adultos submetidos à anestesia com sev...
