BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies have shown that children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) are less likely to be physically active and have excess weight gain. However, longitudinal studies examining the relationship between DCD and measures of body composition (BMI and waist circumference) over time are lacking. It is not known if sex and physical activity affect the relationsh...

severe accidents of process industries in iran have increased significantly in recent decade. this study quantitatively analyzes the hazards of severe accidents imposed on people, equipment and building by a hydrogen production facility. a hazard identification method was applied. then a consequence simulation was carried out using phast 6.54 software package and at the end, consequence evaluat...

Production of recombinant rat Vegf: Vegf cDNA, amplified from a rat cDNA library, was cloned into the pPICZαA secretion vector and expressed using the Pichia pastoris yeast expression system, according to the instructions of the manufacturer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). After overnight dialysis of the yeast-conditioned medium against 10 mM acetic acid (pH 5.5), Vegf was purified by sequential ch...

BACKGROUND Independent of their blood pressure lowering effect, ACE inhibitors are thought to reduce vascular inflammation. The clinical relevance of this effect is unclear with the current knowledge. Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are characterized by a broad, non-specific inflammatory response, and thus provide a clinical platform to evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of ACE inhibitor...

Introduction: Today, with development of various industries, the adverse events originated from explosion and emission of toxic and chemical substances have increased. These events may cause serious environmental problems that threaten human health and safety. Therefore, knowledge about the risk of toxic substances from industrial facilities is essential. Although, chlorine is extensively uti...

Previous studies imply a profound residual mortality risk following successful abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) repair. This excess is generally attributed to increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was (1) quantify the for patients with AAA, (2) evaluate cross sectional level management, and (3) estimate potential optimised management reduce in these patients. Excess estimated throu...
