background oral mucositis is an adverse effect of chemotherapy. type of chemotherapy regimen is the most important factor causing mucositis. oral mucositis is usually associated with transient decrease in saliva production. the goal was to study effects of gum consumption on oral mucositis in children undergoing chemotherapy. materials and methods this randomized controlled trial was done in am...

background: gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (gtn) is a curable disease thatinvolves the development of malignant tumor in the woman after a normal or molarpregnancy. the position of surgery in gtn is not properly specified and is changingdue to new chemotherapy protocols. however, the role of surgery is highlighted inchemotherapy-resistant gtn. other indications of surgery in trophoblastic ...

abstract ovarian tissue freezing or cryopreservation might be the only acceptable method for preserving the young women fertility, before radiotherapy or chemotherapy. this technology might be used for patients with recurrent ovarian cysts or endometriosis, without ovarian stimulation. many efforts have made to improve cryopreservation conditions that should be seriously considered for cancer p...

implantable ports are used for intravenous infusion therapy and play an important role in management of oncology patients. these ports are best suited for patients requiring long-term therapy (>4 weeks). implanted ports provide reliable venous access protect peripheral access increase patients’ comfort through reducing repeated and difficult vein punctures allow for safe and comfortable adminis...

This paper presents u-Photo which is an interactive digital still image including information of pervasive services associated with networked appliances and sensors in pervasive computing environment. U-Photo Tools can generate a u-Photo and provide methods for discovering contextual information about these pervasive services. Users can easily find out this information through the metaphor of ‘...

a general overview on the prospective of various oxidation and combined processes in the treatment of tannery industry effluent are reported. various oxidation and combined processes such as uv/h2o2/hypochlorites, fenton and electro-oxidation, photo-chemical, photo-catalytic, electro-catalytic oxidation, wet air oxidation, ozonation, biological followed by ozone/uv/ h2o2, coagulation or ele...

Photo-labile molecules have been widely used not only in organic synthesis but also in biological study. The chemistry of the typical photo-labile organic molecules, including their structure, mechanism underlying their photo-lability and strategies to integrate them with biomolecules, is reviewed to illustrate the structural basis for photo-activable caged compounds. Biological applications of...

In this paper a new approach for matching aspect ratio of a digital photo for borderless printing by complementing it with fragments extracted from the same photo is proposed. This approach comprises analysis of side strips of the source photo in order to estimate the possibility to complement it without visible artifacts; complementing one or both opposite sides of the photo, matching the desi...
