Es wurde gezeigt, da der 8 OHdG Gehalt im Peritumorgewebe signif ikant hoher als im Tumorgeweb e war ( P =0.006) und mit dem Entzundungsgrad korrelierte. Die hMTH 1 E xpression war im Tumorgewebe gegenuber dem Peritumorgewebe erhoht ( P =0.014). Umgekehrt war die hMYHα Expression im Peritumorgewebe signifikant hoher als im Tumorgewebe ( P =0.039). Fur die hOGG 1 Expression wurde kein deutlicher Unterschied zwischen Tumor und Peritumorgewebe beobachte t. Eine deutliche lineare Korrelation zwischen der hMTH 1 und der hOGG 1 Exp ression wurde sowohl in Tumor ( r =0.809, P < 0.001) als auch in Peritum orgewebe ( r =0.883, P <0.001) gefunden. Diese Daten sprechen fur ein e reaktive und gegen eine pathogenetische Rolle der untersuchten DNA Reparature nzyme in der Hepatokarzinogenese.展开更多

The tag can be considered a remote executing unit or a computer that executes instructions from the Gen 2 protocol. The selection of the parameter and command configuration within the protocol limitations is critical especially if the time available for the memory operations in a passive RFID system is limited. An effort is made to map the operation of the tag not in its states of operation as elaborately explained in the protocol but rather in its elementary format. The research reported in this article identifies all the parameters that affect the dynamic operation of the tag. The operation is further divided into singulation, read and write; identifying the significant parameters in each case. The choices of the different commands that can be adopted to perform identical operations on the tag are analyzed. The elements to consider in selecting the optimum command configuration are described. The impact of the different parameter and command configuration on the singulation, read and write time is calculated and recorded using a tested Gen 2 simulator program.展开更多
