Economic Feasibility of Wave Energy Farms in Portugal
This paper develops a methodology to determine the economic feasibility of implementing offshore wave energy farms on the Portuguese continental coast.This methodology follows several phases: the geographic phase, the energy phase, the economic phase, and the restrictions phase.First, in the geographic phase, the height and the period of the waves,
CINC-2 and miR-199a-5p in EVs secreted by transplanted Thy1+ cells activate hepatocytic progenitor cell growth in rat liver regeneration
Abstract Background Small hepatocyte-like progenitor cells (SHPCs) are hepatocytic progenitor cells that transiently form clusters in rat livers treated with retrorsine (Ret) that underwent 70% partial hepatectomy (PH).We previously reported that transplantation of Thy1+ cells obtained from d-galactosamine-treated livers promotes SHPC expansion, th
Performance Evaluation In Hospitals Of Lorestan University Of Medical Sciences Using Pabon-Lasso Model
Background and Aim: Assessment of hospital performance increases responsiveness and efficiency of limited resources.One of the most useful models of hospital performance assessment is Pabon-Lasso, a graphical model that determines the relative performance of hospitals using three indicators: Bed Occupancy Rate; Bed Turnover; and Average Length of S
