Background and Objectives: Kerman Province, especially city of Bam in the southeast part of Iran, is epidemics for dry type cutaneous leishmaniasis (DTCL). This study was conducted to compare the effect of different treatments on parasite DNA load following therapies using Real-Time PCR method. Materials and Methods: Fifteen patients were divided into three groups under therapy with intralesio...

abstract icssdom is a mathematical synthetic model that was written with fortran77 and in which used sa simulation annealing algorithm like an internal loop in basic structure of icss hydrodynamic simulation model. this model presented by mohseni movahed in 1381. this model is able assess current performance and present optimal operation considering downstream requirement of turnout in real con...

Real time and accurate fault detection has attracted an increasing attention with a growing demand for higher operational efficiency and safety of industrial gas turbines as complex engineering systems. Current methods based on condition monitoring data have drawbacks in using both expert knowledge and quantitative information for detecting faults. On account of this reason, this paper proposes...

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between viral load in single human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 or 52 persistent infection and the progression of later cytopathological findings in the uterine cervix. Cervical cytology and HPV genotyping tests were repeated within 3-6 months in 305 women with oncogenic HPV. Twenty-four cases of single HPV 52 persistent infection and 24 case...

Background: As a novel pro-apoptotic kinase, Mammalian sterile 20–like kinase 1 (Mst1) promotes programmed cell death in animal models of inflammatory diseases. This research aimed to determine the level of expression of Mst1 gene in a rat model of spinal cord injury (SCI) treated with valproic acid (VPA). Methods: Animals were divided into four groups: Contused animals (untreated); laminectom...
