conclusions it seems that there is no difference in the use of heparinized and normal saline solutions to prevent catheter occlusion of arterial and central venous pressure. patients and methods in the current randomized controlled trial, 100 patients, with an age range of 18 - 65 years of valve and coronary artery surgery were studied in rajaie heart center, tehran, iran. patients were randomi...

In this paper, the effect of pressure, temperature and impurity on the energylevels, binding energy, linear and nonlinear optical properties of a modified Gaussianquantum dot are studied. In this regard, the finite element method is employed to solvethe single electron Schrodinger equation in the effective mass approximation with andwithout impurity at the center of the dot. In addition, the en...

Background and aims: Obesity and overweight is a major public health problem and, alongside hypertension, is one of the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases incidence. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of overweight and its association with hypertension in the patients referred the healthcare center in Jandaq. Methods: This cross-se...

Aims: Adopting self-care behaviors in patients with hypertension is one of the most effective ways to control blood pressure. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of the cognitive-behavioral intervention on self-care behaviors and blood pressure control. Materials & Methods: This clinical trial study conducted in 2019 on patients over 30-years with primary hypertension in Dorc...

since gait is the mixture of many complex movements, each individual can define with a unique footpressure image that can be used as a reliable biometric scale for human verification. foot pressure colorimages of center for biometrics and security research (cbsr) dataset from 45 men and five womenwere used in this study. owing to the properties of this dataset, an index of foot pressure in addi...

recent studies show significant reduction of postural stability in transtibial amputees (ttas) especially when a perturbation is applied. however, no record has been seen on the consequences of such perturbation on the stump-socket interface pressure (ssip). our objective was to investigate whether such perturbation impose excessive pressures on the stump. we were also interested on the type of...
