Am J Gastroenterol. 2000;95(4):897. Conventionally, the upper limit of normal for the common bile duct as measured by ultrasound is considered to be 6 mm. This review is a somewhat personalized account of how that number became the convention and cautions the reader to avoid being slavish in the use of this number.t is concluded that, based on the visualization of the entire extrahepatic duct echographically, the normal inner diameter of common bile duct can be up to 10 mm, and there is a mild change of duct size with age.


Diameters of the common bile duct in adults and postcholecystectomy patients: A study with 64-slice CT
On MDCT, the common hepatic duct and CBD are visible in almost 100% of patients with or without biliary obstruction [1] . A normal range for CBD has not been established on CT. In an autopsy study the outer diameters of the duct ranged from 4 to 12 mm, with an average of 7.39 Â± 1.64 mm [2] .The upper limit of normal for the CBD has been reported as 4â10 mm on ultrasound [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] and [7] .owever, others found dilatation of the CBD in patients after cholecystectomy [7] and [10] . In this study we aimed to find the size of the normal common bile duct on MDCT. We searched age related changes in the diameter of the common bile duct.


Age and Common Bile Duct Diameter
They demonstrated minimal increase in the common bile duct diameter: 3.6 mm Â± 0.26 at age 60 years and 4.0 mm Â± 0.25 at age 85 years or older.f course, Dr Laks correctly asserts that even though the expected value (mean) of the extrahepatic bile duct diameter may not vary with age, its reference range, that is its CI, may do so in such a manner as to include the 1.0 mm per decade value in its upper limit.

Diameters of the common bile duct in adults and postcholecystectomy patients: A study with 64-slice CT
In the published literature the upper limit of the CBD has been reported as 4â10 mm on ultrasound [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] and [7] . The mean diameter of the common bile duct measured by US was reported as 4.1 mm in the study by Parulekar [4] .owever, others found dilatation of the CBD in patients after cholecystectomy [7] and [10] . In this study we aimed to find the size of the normal common bile duct on MDCT. We searched age related changes in the diameter of the common bile duct.


Age and Common Bile Duct Diameter
In fact, 1,000 of their 1,018 patients, all aged at least 60 years, had duct diameters less than 6.0 mm, which directly refutes 1.0 mm per decade as an upper limit of normal.f course, Dr Laks correctly asserts that even though the expected value (mean) of the extrahepatic bile duct diameter may not vary with age, its reference range, that is its CI, may do so in such a manner as to include the 1.0 mm per decade value in its upper limit.


Plate tectonics
Dissipation of heat from the mantle is acknowledged to be the original source of the energy required to drive plate tectonics through convection or large scale upwelling and doming. The current view, though still a matter of some debate, asserts that as a consequence, a powerful source of plate motion is generated due to the excess density of the oceanic lithosphere sinking in subduction zones.


Standard Costing (Explanation)
The additional 8 hours is multiplied by the standard rate of $10 to give us an unfavorable direct labor efficiency variance of $80. (The direct labor efficiency variance could be called the direct labor quantity variance or usage variance.) Note that DenimWorks paid $9 per hour for labor when the standard rate is $10 per hour. This $1 differenceâmultiplied by the 50 actual hoursâresults in a $50 favorable direct labor rate variance.

This means that for any given good output, we can compute the direct labor rate variance, the direct labor efficiency variance, and the standard direct labor cost at the same time. Let's begin by determining the standard cost of direct labor for the good output produced in January 2016:


Overhead Controllable Variance:
If the actual factory overhead is less than the budget allowance based on standard hours allowed for work performed, the variance is called favorable controllable variance. Overhead controllable variance is calculated when overall or net overhead variance is further analyzed using two variance method.

January 2017 Let's begin by determining the standard cost of direct labor for the good output produced in January 2017:


Overhead Controllable Variance:
Overhead Controllable Variance: Definition and Explanation: The controllable variance is the difference between actual expenses incurred and the budget allowance based on standard hours allowed for work performed. This variance may be favorable or unfavorable. If the actual factory overhead is more than the budget allowance based on standard hours allowed for work performed, the variance is called unfavorable controllable variance.

What is a Cost Variance?
Cost Variance. A cost variance is the difference between the actual expenses incurred and the standard expenses estimated at the beginning of a period. Management uses these variances are used to analyze and track the progress of production processes, budgets, and other operations.


Standard Costing (Explanation)
Standard Costing (Explanation) Direct Labor: Standard Cost, Rate Variance, Efficiency Variance. Direct labor refers to the work done by those employees who actually make the product on the production line. (Indirect labor is work done by employees who work in the production area, but do not work on the production line.


Overhead Controllable Variance:
The controllable variance is the responsibility of the department managers to the extent that they can exercise control over the costs to which the variances relate. Relevant Articles: Definition and Explanation of Standard Cost

Chemistry Chapter 5
An electric current requires movement of ___ particles, which could be electrons or ions. An electrolyte produces ___ in solution and the solution is therefore conductive. charged, ions. In a(n) ___ compound electrons are transferred from one atom or group of atoms to another.


Explain why water is a polar molecule?
because water is a polar relation in the molecule as a a whole which makes it a solvant in the solute and that's why we drink clean water


-
Extreme cases of polarity occur in the water molecule, i.e. stackrel(+delta)H-stackrel(-delta)O-stackrel(+delta)H, or stackrel(+delta)H-stackrel(-delta)F...and this polarity, this charge separation, gives rise to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.


Which statement correctly explains the polarity of the water molecule? A. The hydrogen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the oxygen end has a partial positive charge. B. The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge. C. Both ends of the molecule have a partial negative charge, which attracts the other water molecule towards itself.
The statement that correctly explains the polarity of the water molecule is B. Oxygen end has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge. Comments Report


Explain why water is a polar molecule?
Answers. 1  At first appearance a water molecule doesn't seem that special. It has 2 hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to 1 oxygen atom. But what you should know is that oxygen (electronegativity 3.5) is one of the most electronegative elements 2nd only to fluorine (electronegativity of 4.0).

Quick Answer. Decomposers include certain types of bacteria, worms, slugs, snails and fungi. All of these organisms break down or eat dead or decomposing organisms to help carry out the process of decomposition. They are the last step in the food chain, which recycles nutrients and breaks down wastes and organic matter in the ecosystem.


What Are Some Examples of Decomposers?
Decomposers are known as heterotrophs because they eat organic substrates to obtain carbon, energy and other nutrients to grow and thrive. Decomposers break down the organic substrates via biochemical reactions that convert the substrates into metabolically useful products. This removes the need for internal digestive organs in decomposers.

How does an amoeba reproduce?
Amoeba reproduces by binary fission which is a method of cell division. First, the cell chromosomes replicate. Next, the cell becomes longer and starts to break off at the cenâ¦tre. The cell wall fills in as it starts to break off. After the division is complete, there are two identical cells.


Amoeba
Do amoeba reproduce sexual or asexual? The amoeba usually reproduces asexually by a process called binary fission (splitting in two), in which the cytoplasm simply pinches in half and pulls apart to form two id â¦ entical organisms (daughter cells).


Amoeba
This occurs after the parent amoeba's genetic (hereditary) material, contained in the nucleus, is replicated and the nucleus divides (a process known as mitosis). Thus, the hereditary material is identical in the two daughter cells. If an amoeba is cut in two, the half that contains the nucleus can survive and form new cytoplasm. The half without a nucleus soon dies. This demonstrates the importance of the nucleus in reproduction. Balaji. J M.Sc Microbiology

How does an amoeba reproduce?
How fast does the amoeba reproduce? Amoeba reproduction occurs rapidly. Using the process called binary fission, the amoeba splits itself in half, which then creates two new amoebas.

Learn About Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis
Most technical papers rely on just the first formulation, even though you may see some of the others in a statistics textbook. 1  Null hypothesis: âx is equal to y.â Alternative hypothesis âx is not equal to y.â. 2  Null hypothesis: âx is at least y.â Alternative hypothesis âx is less than y.â.


How to Set Up a Hypothesis Test: Null versus Alternative
When you set up a hypothesis test to determine the validity of a statistical claim, you need to define both a null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis. Typically in a hypothesis test, the claim being made is about a population parameter (one number that characterizes the entire population).


How to Set Up a Hypothesis Test: Null versus Alternative
Every hypothesis test contains a set of two opposing statements, or hypotheses, about a population parameter. The first hypothesis is called the null hypothesis, denoted H0. The null hypothesis always states that the population parameter is equal to the claimed value. For example, if the claim is that the average time to make a name-brand ready-mix pie is five minutes, the statistical shorthand notation for the null hypothesis in this case would be as follows: (That is, the population mean is 5 minutes.) All null hypotheses include an equal sign in them.


How to Set Up a Hypothesis Test: Null versus Alternative
Before actually conducting a hypothesis test, you have to put two possible hypotheses on the table â the null hypothesis is one of them. 1  But, if the null hypothesis is rejected (that is, there was sufficient evidence against it), whatâs your alternative going to be?


Learn About Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis
If the null hypothesis is rejected, then we accept the alternative hypothesis. If the null hypothesis is not rejected, then we do not accept the alternative hypothesis. Going back to the above example of mean human body temperature, the alternative hypothesis is âThe average adult human body temperature is not 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.â


Learn About Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis
In the same way, just because we failed to reject a null hypothesis it does not mean that the statement is true. For example, we may want to investigate the claim that despite what convention has told us, the mean adult body temperature is not the accepted value of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.


Learn About Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis
Hypothesis testing involves the careful construction of two statements: the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis. These hypotheses can look very similar, but are actually different. How do we know which hypothesis is the null and which one is the alternative? We will see that there are a few ways to tell the difference. The Null Hypothesis


How to Set Up a Hypothesis Test: Null versus Alternative
Here they are, along with their shorthand notations in the context of the pie example: 1  The population parameter is not equal to the claimed value. 2  The population parameter is greater than the claimed value. 3  The population parameter is less than the claimed value.


Learn About Null Hypothesis and Alternative Hypothesis
The null hypothesis reflects that there will be no observed effect for our experiment. In a mathematical formulation of the null hypothesis there will typically be an equal sign. This hypothesis is denoted by H0. The null hypothesis is what we attempt to find evidence against in our hypothesis test.


PL/SQL Expressions and Comparisons
Negation. 1  Null hypothesis: âx is equal to y.â Alternative hypothesis âx is not equal to y.â. 2  Null hypothesis: âx is at least y.â Alternative hypothesis âx is less than y.â. 3  Null hypothesis: âx is at most y.â Alternative hypothesis âx is greater than y.â.

RescorlaâWagner modelupdate
Van Hamme and Wasserman have extended the original RescorlaâWagner (RW) model and introduced a new factor in their revised RW model in 1994 [2]: They suggested that not only conditioned stimuli physically present on a given trial can undergo changes in their associative strength, the associative value of a CS can also be altered by a within-compound-association with a CS present on that trial.

RescorlaâWagner model. The RescorlaâWagner model is a model of classical conditioning in which the animal is theorized to learn from the discrepancy between what is expected to happen and what actually happens. This is a trial-level model in which each stimulus is either present or not present at some point in the trial.

Basic assumptions of the model. 1  The amount of surprise an organism is assumed to experience when encountering an unconditioned stimulus (US) is assumed to be dependent on the summed associative value of all cues present during that trial. 2  Excitation and inhibition are opposite features.

Success and popularity. The RescorlaâWagner model has been successful and popular because: it can generate clear and ordinal predictions. it has a number of successful predictions. processing event representation by intensity and unexpectedness has an intuitive appeal. it provides considerable heuristic value.


RescorlaâWagner modelupdate
For this reason, the RescorlaâWagner model has become one of the most influential models of learning, though it has been frequently criticized since its publication.


Rescorla-Wagner model
Andrew G. Barto. Bernd Porr. The Rescorla-Wagner model is a formal model of the circumstances under which Pavlovian conditioning occurs. It attempts to describe the changes in associative strength (V) between a signal (conditioned stimulus, CS) and the subsequent stimulus (unconditioned stimulus, US) as a result of a conditioning trial.


Rescorla-Wagner model
Casually put, associative learning occurs not because two events co-occur but because that co-occurrence is unanticipated on the basis of current associative strength. The Rescorla-Wagner model attempts to capture that casual idea in a more formal way.

One most common drug treatments for high cholesterol (statin drugs) can cause muscle pain as a side effect, but non-drug treatments can be effective too.


Muscle Problems With Statins
Furthermore, and when they occur, muscle problems are almost always reversible. Life-threatening muscle problems from statins are extremely rare. Still, if you are taking a statin drug you should be aware of the possibility of developing muscle pain or weakness, and if these symptoms occur you should bring them to the attention of your doctor.


Statins and Muscle Pain
There are many other causes of myalgias too. Statin muscle pain typically occurs in the proximal muscle groups(closer to the trunk of the body) and also lower back. Statin-induced myalgias have occurred up to 3 years after starting a statin. Myopathy has been used to refer to all muscle complaints or CK elevations more than 10 times the upper limits of normal with or without associated muscle symptoms.

Lowering Cholesterol Without Muscle Pain. One most common drug treatments for high cholesterol (statin drugs) can cause muscle pain and weakness as a side effect, but there are also effective non-drug treatments to lower cholesterol. Joe Graedon November 26, 2012 Alternative Health 28 Comments


Overview
Tasks that were once simple, such as climbing stairs or walking, may make you uncomfortable and tired while using statins. Muscle breakdown. Rhabdomyolysis, or the breakdown of muscle tissue, is a rare side effect of statins that can also cause muscle pain. This disease can cause life-threatening muscle damage. In addition to severe muscle pain, rhabdomyolysis can lead to liver damage, kidney failure, and, in rare cases, death. According to the FDA, the following statins contain specific warnings on the package inserts about muscle pain and rhabdomyolysis: lovastatin extended-release (Altoprev)


Is there any evidence that different statins are more or less likely to cause muscle pain?
As the authors state, One of the most frequently discussed side effects of statins is myalgia...In this analysis...there was a nonsignificant trend toward lower reports of myalgia in statin-treated patients compared with placebo-treated patients...This finding is difficult to reconcile with the observation in clinical practice of the association with myalgias but suggests that the risk was not substantial in patients enrolled in these trials.

Cell Division: Amitosis, Mitosis, Cytokinesis
In cell division, the first visible changes occur in the nucleus, when the chromonemata condense into chromosomes (Gr; coloured bodies). This stage is called the Prophase (Gr; early figure). Then the nuclear boundary disappears and the chromosomes line up in or near one plane in the cell.


What Happens In Each Phase Of Mitosis
During anaphase, the spindle fibers pull the identical sister chromatids to opposite sides (poles) of the parent cell. The fourth and final step of mitosis is telophase. During telophase, two nuclear envelopes reform around the separated DNA and the DNA de-condenses so that chromosomes are no longer visible. One can also see that the plasma membrane begins to constrict between the newly formed nuclei.


Cell Biology/Print version
By the end of anaphase, the two poles of the cell each have a complete set of chromosomes. TELOPHASE: The microtubules become even longer, and daughter nuclei begin to form at the two poles of the cell. Nuclear envelopes are formed, the nucleoli reappear, the chromatin of the chromosomes uncoils. Mitosis is now complete: one nucleus has divided into two genetically identical nuclei. Cytokinesis follows and involves the formation of a cleavage furrow, which pinches the cells in two These pages authored and maintained by Marcella Dawson.

Cell Division
The chromosomes (really pairs of chromatids) split apart to form the genetic material of the four new cells. The end result is four sex cells each with a complete but single set of 23 chromosomes. On fertilisation the nuclei of the sperm and the egg join to form a new nucleus, called the zygote.

Learn About Cellular Respiration
Glycolysis takes place in the cell's cytoplasm. Glucose and oxygen are supplied to cells by the bloodstream. In the process of glyoclysis, two molecules of ATP, two molecules of pyruvic acid and two high energy electron carrying molecules of NADH are produced. Glycolysis can occur with or without oxygen. In the presence of oxygen, glycolysis is the first stage of aerobic cellular respiration. Without oxygen, glycolysis allows cells to make small amounts of ATP. This process is called anaerobic respiration or fermentation.

Mitochondrion releases energy in the cell. It is the powerhouse of the cell. It uses oxygen and released energy from digested food. It is found in both plant and animal cells. Vacuole stores water, food, and waste that cells cannot use right away. Vacuole are present in both plant and animal cells.


Animal cells
Animal cells have lysosomes for digestion, centrosomes to help with cell division and sometimes flagella to help with movement â none of these three organelles are found in plant cells The cells of animals lack cell walls, chloroplasts and vacuoles which are all found in plant cells Different types of specialized cells are found in different tissues and have features relative to their function e.g. nerve cells have axons and dendrites to send and receive messages.


Vesicle Function
Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that used to break down substances in the cell into smaller molecules. As these organelles are present only in animal cell, vesicle function in this case will be different compared to that of plant cell. The lysosome structure consists of small sacs that are bound by a single layered membrane. These are the organelles that are involved with cellular digestion.

(ii) Vacuoles: ADVERTISEMENTS: The vacuole is an organelle that is predominantly present in plant and fungal cells. It is also seen in certain animal and bacterial cells, though it is one of the prominent plant cell parts. These organelles are filled with fluid and basically contain enzymes in solution.


"""List Four Cell Structures That Are Common To Both Plant And Animal Cells 4 Points"" Essays and Research Papers"
All living things are made up of cells. The structures of different types of cells are related to their functions. Animal cells and plant cells have features in common, such as a nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria and ribosomes. Plant and algal cells also have a cell wall, and often have chloroplasts and a permanent vacuole. Bacterial and yeast cells have different structures to animal and plant cells. Dissolved substances pass into and out of cells by diffusion.


Animal cells
Animal cells have a number of organelles and structures that perform specific functions for the cell. The huge variety of cells that have evolved to fulfill different purposes do not always have all the same organelles or structures, but in general terms, these are some of the structures you can expect to find in animal cells:


Animal cells
Animal cells. As with all of Earthâs organisms, animals are built from microscopic structures called cells. Cells are the basic unit of life and these microscopic structures work together and perform all the necessary functions to keep an animal alive. There is an enormous range of animal cells.

The term norepinephrine is derived from the chemical prefix nor-, which indicates that norepinephrine is the next lower homolog of epinephrine. The two structures differ only in that epinephrine has a methyl group attached to its nitrogen, while the methyl group is replaced by a hydrogen atom in norepinephrine. Chemistry


Endocrine System 7 Flashcards
Hormone produced by the adrenal medulla that stimulates flight or fight responses; aka adrenalin. For thyroxine to be produced in adequate amounts, the diet must contain sufficient what? calcium


An Overview of the Adrenal Glands
They are located on top of each kidney. Their name directly relates to their location (adânear or at; renesâkidneys). Each adrenal gland is comprised of two distinct structuresâthe outer part of the adrenal glands is called the adrenal cortex. The inner region is known as the adrenal medulla. Hormones of the Adrenal Glands


Endocrine System
Hormones may be released as a direct result of ________ innervation to the gland itself. ________ factors, secreted by the hypothalamus, stimulate release of the hormone in the blood. ______ factors prevent the release of hormones. Effects similar to sympathetic nervous system.


Norepinephrine
Norepinephrine is synthesized from tyrosine as a precursor, and packed into synaptic vesicles. It performs its action. by being released into the synaptic cleft, where it acts on adrenergic receptors, followed by the signal termination, either by degradation of norepinephrine, or by uptake by surrounding cells.


Hormonal Control of Osmoregulatory Functions
Epinephrine. As a hormone and neurotransmitter, epinephrine acts on nearly all body tissues. Its actions vary by tissue type and tissue expression of adrenergic receptors. For example, high levels of epinephrine cause smooth muscle relaxation in the airways, but cause contraction of the smooth muscle that lines most arterioles.


Brain AnatomyâEarly Structures and Systems
The ANS is made up of two subsystems: the parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system. The abdominal portion of the sympathetic nervous system is depicted in the illustration to the right (image links to source). The sympathetic cables, made of nerve fibers, are colored yellow in the illustration.


Adrenal Glands: Epinephrine, Norepinephrine & Stress Adaptation
For instance, if you are out for a peaceful hike in the woods and all of a sudden a bear appears, your sympathetic nervous system sends split-second impulses that help you make the decision to stay and fight or take flight. I recommend taking flight!

What instruments is not common to bluegrass folk and country music?
It depends on today, and yesterday's music. In the music of today in 2010, I can't think of any instruments that aren't related to most any form of music. An example of yest â¦ erday, Bluegrass, Country, and Folk Music didn't have the same instruments as Classical Music. Such instruments as French horns, violins, cellos, tubas, or clarinet's. Today, it's a different story.

Country music evolved from a wide range of sources, including: western swing, blues, and traditional folk music from a diverse range of cultures. The instruments used and their sources are also very diverse: fiddles and accordians from Europe, Guitars from spain, steel guitars from Hawaii.


All About the Folk Revival
There were a lot of things that conspired to influence the folk music revival of the 1960s, but three major influences can be highlighted. 1. The Folklorists: During the early 20th Century, folklorists headed out across the country in hopes of documenting the musical styles traditional to various communities.


Country music
The term country music is used today to describe many styles and subgenres. The origins of country music are the folk music of working class Americans, who blended popular songs, Irish and Celtic fiddle tunes, traditional English ballads, and cowboy songs, and various musical traditions from European immigrant communities.


-
Country music, also called country and western, is a style of music that began in the southern United States. The center of country music is Nashville, Tennessee. However, country music is played all over the United States and as far away as Australia.


Bluegrass music
In 1948, what would come to be known as bluegrass emerged as a genre within the post-war country/western-music industry, a period of time characterized now as the golden era or wellspring of traditional bluegrass. From its earliest days, bluegrass has been recorded and performed by professional and amateur musicians alike.


Country music
Country music, also called country and western, style of 20th-century American popular music that originated among whites in rural areas of the South and West. The term âcountry and western musicâ (later shortened to âcountry musicâ) was adopted by the recording industry in 1949 to replace the derogatory label âhillbilly music.â.


All About the Folk Revival
Hardly. Some people only think of folk music in the context of the 1960s, but, hopefully, the information on this Web site will convince them otherwise. American folk music has spanned the entire history of the country, although its popularity does fluctuate (as does the popularity of pretty much everything).
