Background and Purpose: Due to adverse effects of cancer on children's mental health, relaxation, chemotherapy side-effects and positive effects of music therapy on stress, this study was performed with the goal to determine the effect of music therapy on children's stress after chemotherapy. Methods: The present study is a randomized clinical trial done on 32 children undergoing cancer chem...

conclusions hbv in children due to vaccination failure was resulted from vertical transmission. hbv pre-s/s gene mutations were prevalent and could occur before or after vaccination. therefore, simply analyzing mutation frequency of hbv gene was not of value. to advance blocking hbv vertical transmission, future studies should focus on specific mutation sites, potentially associated with vaccin...

purpose : fluoroquinolones are widely used antibiotic for prophylaxis of intra and postoperative infections in individuals undergoing cataract surgery. this study was designed to assess the penetration of ciprofloxacin into the ocular aqueous humor (topical only versus topical and oral administration). methods : studied population (n=47) consisted of two groups: group one (n=26) and group two (...

In this paper we present two new approaches for finding good starting solutions to the planar p-median problem. Both methods rely on a discrete approximation of continuous model that restricts facility locations given set demand points. The first method adapts phase greedy random construction algorithm proposed minimum sum squares clustering second one implements simple descent procedure based ...

This paper analyzes an induction motor with high temperature superconducter (HTS) coated slotted solid rotor. By slotting the solid rotor, the electromagnetic torque near synchronous speed will increase but the starting torque will decrease. To improve starting torque, rotor slots are coated with HTS materials. Using HTS material vary the rotor resistance to great extends in starting step and t...
