ABSTRACT: Considered one of the best odor detectors, dogs go through a rigorous selection and training process.Based on Baskets learning theories, modern techniques are used for dog training, respecting individual characteristics, efficiency, and well-being.Since narcotics detection work is perceived as a “play” for the dog, in practice, this p
Background: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) causes hydronephrosis and progressive renal impairment may ensue if left uncorrected.Open pyeloplasty remains the standard against which new technique must be compared.We compared laparoscopic (LP) and open pyeloplasty (OP) in a randomized prospective trial.Materials and Methods: A prospective r
This paper examines the effect of acquirer likelihood on future stock returns.In sharp contrast to prior findings, acquirer likelihood is a strong and negative predictor of cross-sectional future returns after controlling for target likelihood.If takeover exposure represents a risk premium, the effect on stock valuation should only present in eithe
We study the effects of fissioning nuclei mass- and energy-distributions on the formation of fragments for fission induced by high energy probes.A Monte Carlo code called CRISP was used for obtaining mass distributions and spectra of the fissioning nuclei for reactions induced by 660 MeV protons on 241Am and on 239Np, by 500 MeV protons on 208Pb, a
