Cord Blood Karyotyping: A Safe and Non-Invasive Method for Postnatal Testing of Assisted Reproductive Technology Children
Objective To verify the hypothesis that the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities increases in babies conceived by different assisted reproduction procedures. The availability of the umbilical cord blood encouraged us to study this hypothesis via this method. MaterialsAndMethods This is a descriptive study, umbilical cord blood samples of assisted reproductive technology (ART) children were an...
متن کاملHomotopy perturbation method for eigenvalues of non-definite Sturm-Liouville problem
In this paper, we consider the application of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to compute the eigenvalues of the Sturm-Liouville problem (SLP) which is called non-definite SLP. Two important Examples show that HPM is reliable method for computing the eigenvalues of SLP.
متن کاملMeasuring Ventilatory Activity with Structured Light Plethysmography (SLP) Reduces Instrumental Observer Effect and Preserves Tidal Breathing Variability in Healthy and COPD
The use of a mouthpiece to measure ventilatory flow with a pneumotachograph (PNT) introduces a major perturbation to breathing ("instrumental/observer effect") and suffices to modify the respiratory behavior. Structured light plethysmography (SLP) is a non-contact method of assessment of breathing pattern during tidal breathing. Firstly, we validated the SLP measurements by comparing timing com...
متن کاملStator Turn-to-Turn Fault Detection of Induction Motor by Non-Invasive Method Using Generalized Regression Neural Network
Condition monitoring and protection methods based on the analysis of the machine's current are widely used according to non-invasive characteristics of current transformers. It should be noted that, these sensors are installed by default in the machine control center. On the other hand, condition monitoring based on mathematical methods has been proposed in literature. However, they are model b...
متن کاملEfficiency and outcome of non-invasive versus invasive positive pressure ventilation therapy in respiratory failure due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background: Application noninvasive ventilation in the patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) reduced mortality. This case-control study was designed to compare efficiency and outcome of non-invasive (NIV) versus invasive positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) in respiratory failure due to COPD Methods: The patients were assigned to NIV or IPPV intermittantl...
