Asterixis, firstly described in metabolic encephalopathies, may occur unilaterally in patients with various focal brain diseases. Although hardly localizing, most reported cases have showed a contralateral thalamic pathology; but Lesions in the medial frontal lobe, parietal lobe, brain stem, basal ganglia, insular lesions, may also cause unilateral asterixis. In this article, three cases of acu...

Dipygus is a teratological fetus with a double pelvis, genitals, and extremities. Congenital duplications in cattle are rare. Caudal duplication is more common in sheep and pigs while cranial duplications seem to be predominant in cattle.Asymmetric or parasitic conjoined twins consisting of an incomplete twin (parasite) attached to the body of a fully-developed twin (autosite).This report deals...

the doctor-patient interaction (dpi) plays an important role in the way patients view physicians. thus, response to the question of ''who is a great physician?'' is related to dpi experiences of patients. the aim of this qualitative study was to explore patients' views regarding this subject. based on critical ethnography in one educational hospital in shiraz, iran, the study was performed base...

in this paper we provide explicit formulas for the number of elements/subgroups/cyclic subgroups of a given order and for the total number of subgroups/cyclic subgroups in a finite hamiltonian group. the coverings with three proper subgroups and the principal series of such a group are also counted. finally, we give a complete description of the lattice of characteristic subgroups of a finite h...

Asymmetrical structure is used to reduce the number of bridges and gate drive circuits and DC sources. This structure therefore provides the capability to produce higher voltages at higher speeds with low switching frequency which has inherent low switching losses and high converter efficiency. Newton Raphson (N-R) algorithm is investigated for the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) to calcul...

In a heart with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy without asymmetrical septal hypertrophy the number of transmural myocytes, the mean size of myocytes, and the percentage area of interstitial space were similar in the ventricular septum and left ventricular posterior wall, whereas in a reported series of 14 hearts with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with asymmetrical septal hypertrophy the number of tra...

Background and Aim: Considering the importance of teeth dimensions in their adequacies and aesthetics, their significant racial differences, and various statistics regarding the dimensions of symmetrical teeth in previous articles, we aimed to evaluate the dimensions of symmetrical permanent teeth on two sides of the maxillary and mandibular dental arches and related factors in different occlus...
