AbstractHydrogen as a high-quality and clean energy carrier has attracted renewed and ever-increasing attention around the world in recent years,mainly due to developments in fuel cells and environmental pressures including climate change issues. In thermochemical process[r]

Abstract The first description of the inflammatory process appeared as early as thefirst century AD. Among the first things learned about inflammation is that vascu-lar permeability is increased and leukocyte extravasation occurs. It is now realizedthat the central nervous system (CNS) is not as d[r]
The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and prognostic significance of psychological distress in gastric cancer patients. Psychological distress is common in patients with all stages of gastric cancer and is associated with worse outcomes.
