A large deviation technique is used to calculate the microcanonical entropy function s(v,m) of the mean-field φ4-model as a function of the potential energy v and the magnetization m. As in the canonical ensemble, a continuous phase transition is found. An analytical expression is obtained for the critical energy vc(J) as a function of the coupling parameter J .

 ABSTRACT Background: Acute bronchiolitis is the most common form of lower respiratory tract infection in infancy. There are numerous contradictory reports regarding the efficacy of nebulized bronchodilators in the management of infants with acute bronchiolitis. This study was designed to compare the efficacy of nebulized epinephrine with salbutamol for treatment of the disease. Methods: In a r...

background: one of the affecting factors in disturbance process of spermatogenesis is chemotherapeutic-induced oxidative stress resulted from cyclophosphamide (cp) treatment which leads to diminished sperm quality via interference in spermatogenesis process. objective: this study was conducted to investigate the effects of ethyl pyruvate (ep) in reducing the cp-induced side effects on reproduct...

background: measurement of serum β-hcg concentration commonly used to diagnose tubal ectopic pregnancy (ep) and follow up patients treated conservatively.objective: the aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of maternal serum β-hcg concentration in ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy to help physicians identify those women who are at greatest risk.materials and methods: this is a ...

Activation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is one of the pathological mechanisms associated with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury following resuscitation. The present study aimed to determine whether erythropoietin (EPO) improves post‑resuscitation myocardial dysfunction and how it affects the renin‑angiotensin system. Sprague‑Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham, vehicle, epinep...

in this study, incorporation of iron ion-doped natrolite nanozeolite, multi-wall carbon nanotubes into chitosan-coated glassy carbon electrode for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid, epinephrine, uric acid and tyrosine is studied. the results show that the combination of multi-wall carbon nanotubes and iron ion-doped natrolite zeolite causes a dramatic enhancement in the sensitivit...

Epinephrine has been co-administered intradermally with an anesthetic for intraoperative hemostasis in dermatology nearly a century at concentration of 1:100,000. Many patients report undesirable side effects such as diaphoresis and tachycardia after repeated injections making it difficult them to tolerate procedures. Currently there is ongoing shortage epinephrine that presented opportunity re...
