131 PPHN - The Course with Respect to Birth Weight

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...

NEONATAL MORTALITY IN RELATION TO BIRTH WEIGHT

730 low birth weight (LBW) neonates and 1460 controls were selected from 13,123 neonates born from October 1988 to June 1989 in 17 hospitals and maternity units in Tehran, and were compared for mortality in the first seven and up to 28 days of life (early neonatal period). In this study all low birth weight newborns are divided according to four sub-groups of birth weight, and the mortalit...

The Extension Theorem with Respect to Symmetrized Weight Compositions

We will say that an alphabet A satisfies the extension property with respect to a weight w if every linear isomorphism between two linear codes in A that preserves w extends to a monomial transformation of A. In the 1960s MacWilliams proved that finite fields have the extension property with respect to Hamming weight. It is known that a module A has the extension property with respect to Hammin...

Does the Effect of Micronutrient Supplementation on Neonatal Survival Vary with Respect to the Percentiles of the Birth Weight

Does the effect of micronutrient supplementation on neonatal survival vary with respect to the percentiles of the birth weight distribution?

Scientific Background: In developing countries, higher infant mortality is partially caused by poor maternal and fetal nutrition. Clinical trials of micronutrient supplementation are aimed at reducing the risk of infant mortality by increasing birth weight. Because infant mortality is greatest among the low birth weight infants (LBW) (≤ 2500 grams), an effective intervention may need to increas...
