While Rhino calves are in danger of falling prey to predators such as hyena and lion, but currently the biggest threat to all rhinos is humans and their poaching for monetary gain. Black Rhinos on the other hand are browsers that eat leaves, twigs and fruit. White Rhinos are grazers feeding on grass, preferably short new grass. Another difference between the species is their feeding habits. Both species of rhino adapt well to a variety of habitats including dense bush and grasslands, as long as there is a source of water close by in order to drink and wallow. ![]() Black Rhino are slightly smaller (130 to 180cm in height) and weigh between 8kgs, compared to the White Rhino who stand anywhere from 160 to 185cm at the shoulder and weigh between 1700 to 2300kgs.

In terms of the maximum character size, let’s just select from the image, and just get the biggest text here, and just click and drag. You can actually edit the OCR settings here. So let’s click on vector and… Vectorize and OCR. So in this case, we want to vectorize the floor pen elements, and then turn the text in the document into editable text. OCR means that it’s going to turn the raster text here into two-type text. If you wanna trace an outline or a solid, you can pick on these two other vectorization methods. ![]() The next step would be to convert it into vector by clicking on “Convert Image”, here. Once we’re happy with this, we’d click on “OK”. So let’s keep it a bit low for this particular image, same thing with the hole size. If we make the pixel size, speckle size, a bit too big, it’s gonna start erasing stuff like text. You can mess around with the speckle size and the hole size, but be careful not to… Too big or else it’s gonna start erasing things that we want to keep in. Depending on how much you wanna clean in your original source image, you can choose to take on this, which removes speckles and holes. But if it isn’t, then I would… The first step would be to click on this, to just turn the image into a monochrome image. So in this case, it’s already black and white, so it’s already grayed out. If the image isn’t already black and white, you’re gonna see this not grayed out. First thing’s first, you wanna clean this up a little bit. So, what we want to do is convert this into a vector file using Scan2CAD. As you can see, if you zoom in, things are getting pixelated and blurry. So I have a file opened up on scan2cad here, it’s a raster file. ![]() ![]() ![]() The aim was further confirm the efficacy and mechanism of the two treatment methods, to judge which treatment method is more suitable for clinical use, and to provide more reliable reference opinions for the future treatment of such diseases. Therefore, this study judged myocardial injury by detecting the miR-30a expression level before and after ACOP patients received hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ECMO respectively, and detected myocardial enzymes: creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). ![]() Physiological autophagy has a protective effect in myocardial ischemia, and miR-30a can maintain autophagy reaction of myocardial cells after hypoxia ( 9), so miR-30a is bound to have an important connection with cardiac injury of ACOP. In recent years, due to the development of extracorporeal circulation technology, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technology has been gradually applied to the treatment of ACOP, and Simonsen et al ( 8) reported that ECMO treatment can improve the survival rate of ACOP patients with cardiogenic shock, but its exact efficacy is currently less studied. However, due to the lack of efficacy basis, the application of hyperbaric oxygen to ACOP patients still lacks relevant evidence ( 7). At present, clinical treatment for ACOP includes hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the basis of symptomatic treatment, which can effectively reduce the mortality rate of patients ( 6). Among them, myocardial injuries such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction ( 4) are common in ACOP patients and are related to the increase of long-term mortality rate ( 5). In ACOP, the main harm is to organs with high oxygen demand, including heart and brain, and the severity of the disease may be related to different concentrations of CO exposure and duration ( 3). Its pathogenesis is not completely clear and its physiological mechanism is mainly hypoxia stress. A considerable number of patients have long-term neurological and emotional sequelae after treatment ( 2). Its clinical manifestations range from headache, dizziness to coma and even death with a mortality rate of 1-3%. Acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) is a common acute disease in clinical practice. The concentration of CO exceeding 35 ppm will endanger human health ( 1). It is believed that miR-30a can provide a reference index for early diagnosis and prediction of disease progression and prognosis in cardiac injury of ACOP.Īs a colorless and tasteless gas, carbon monoxide (CO) is difficult to find when it overflows. The expression level of miR-30a in blood of ACOP patients increased significantly, which is positively correlated with myocardial injury, and it decreased after treatment. Both hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ECMO therapy have obvious efficacy on ACOP patients, but the latter is better than the former. The expression level of miR-30a in the RG was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The concentrations of CK-MB and LDH in group A and group B were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.01). Patients in groups A and B achieved obvious efficacy, but the effective rate and incidence rate of complications in the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) group were better than those in the hyperbaric oxygen group. Expression of miR-30a in the blood of experimental subjects was detected by time-fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the relationship between miR-30a expression and ACOP patients was analyzed. ![]() The concentrations of creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of myocardial enzymes at different time points before and after treatment were detected. The effective rates and complications of the two groups after treatment were compared. Thirty-five patients in the RG who received hyperbaric oxygen therapy were considered as group A, and 35 patients who received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy were considered as group B. Seventy patients with moderate and severe acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) admitted from January 2017 to December 2018 into The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were regarded as a research group (RG), and another 30 healthy adults undergoing physical examination in the hospital during the same period were selected as a control group (CG). This study was designed to investigate cardiac injury after acute carbon monoxide poisoning and its clinical treatment scheme. ![]() ![]() ![]() Right click on those items and click Move to Trash to delete them.

![]() ![]() ![]() The Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot is so popular it has become synonymous with "tarot." When you say the word "tarot" it's probably on of Smith's illustrations that pops into your mind's eye. With there are still quite a few tarot decks that use the ordering of the Marseilles decks, or create their own systems entirely, most tarot decks are based on the RWS Tarot. The Rider Waite Tarot is so popular that it has been the basis for many (if not most) other tarot decks. Rider-Waite Tarot Variations: Clones and Daughters But MOST tarot decks are based on the RWS Tarot, in numbering, symbolism, and card meaning. Some decks use the ordering of the Marseilles Tarot, or create their own systems entirely. The Rider Waite Tarot is so popular it has been the basis for many (if not most) other tarot decks. Whatever you call it, the Rider Waite Tarot is everywhere. It's such a popular tarot deck and is so frequently referenced that tarot enthusiasts often use the abbreviations "RW" or "RWS" to save time. Pretty much any combination of the words "Rider," "Waite," "Smith," or "Colman," are fair game. This has led to many calling it the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot, the Waite-Smith Tarot, or even the Waite-Colman Tarot. In recent years there has been a push to give more credit to the artist, Pamela Colman Smith, and rightly so. The Rider Tarot quickly became the Rider Waite Tarot, a tribute to its creator, or sometimes just the Waite deck. Since then The Rider Tarot has been known by many names. The tarot deck Waite and Smith created together is officially named The Rider Tarot – Rider being the name of the original publishers who first produced this deck in 1912. Some pip cards are abstract works of art while others are full tableaus of people in action. This gives all 78 cards a unique feel that fully expresses that individual card's story. In the Rider Waite Tarot each numbered suit card, or pip card, is fully illustrated. What Waite and Smith created was unlike any deck of tarot cards that had come before. Pixie, as she was known to friends, was a young and talented artist and a well-known illustrator for advertisements and theater bills. In the first decade of the 1900's, he commissioned a friend and fellow Golden Dawn member, Pamela Colman Smith, to illustrate a new deck of tarot cards. Frustrated with the limitations he saw in his Marseilles decks, he thought he could design a better tarot deck. ![]() Tarot card images are Copyright © by the copyright holder (generally the publisher).Arthur Edward Waite understood the rich symbolism and spiritual significance that is found in tarot.

The exceptions included impacts of congestion charging, taxes on beer and cigarettes, employer-sponsored transfer payments for use health clubs or travel to work using public transport, and tax credits to parents for enrolment of their children in organised PA programmes. A more recent systematic scoping review also found no primary studies of price promotions or supply side impacts and few studies of the impact of tax or transfer payments. Scoping reviews have found that very few studies have examined the impact of economic instruments including prices to promote PA and consequently that clear policy recommendations cannot yet be made.
