Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare standard triple therapy regimen with sequential therapy regimen containing levofloxacin used for the eradication of H. pylori in patients with gastrointestinal infection caused by H. pylori. Methods: This single blind clinical trial study was conducted on 96 patients with positive Rapid Urease Test (RUT) who were referred to the Endoscopy center ...

By using a model of gene conversion for treating concerted evolution of multigene families, a theory for calculating the variances and covariances of identity coefficients has been developed. Six coefficients on triple identity and 15 coefficients on quadruple identity are needed. The variances and covariances are obtained from the quadruple identity coefficients and divided into within-populat...

background: selection of the best approach for the treatment of helicobacter pylori (h. pylori) infection that encompasses higher eradication and lower failure rates leads to a decline in its related complications and disorders. to understand the relative efficacy of new sequential therapy compared with standard triple therapy as two common regimens, we have performed a randomized, controlled t...

The Triple Aim-enhancing patient experience, improving population health, and reducing costs-is widely accepted as a compass to optimize health system performance. Yet physicians and other members of the health care workforce report widespread burnout and dissatisfaction. Burnout is associated with lower patient satisfaction, reduced health outcomes, and it may increase costs. Burnout thus impe...

In a paper cryptanalyzing many triple modes of operation, Biham proposed four new triple modes and five new quadruple modes of operation for DES. It was conjectured that the complexity (in a particular threat model) of breaking the triple modes is at least 2 and that the quadruple modes are more secure than any triple mode. We present new attacks on all but one of the proposed modes. We can bre...

We give an upper bound on the number of extensions a triple to quadruple for Diophantine m-tuples with property D(4). also confirm conjecture uniqueness such extension in some special cases.

BACKGROUND Epidemiologic studies have provided new insights into the association between psoriasis and cardiovascular diseases. Previous population studies have examined hypertension frequency in psoriasis patients. However, the relationship between severity of hypertension and psoriasis has not been characterized. OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate whether patients with psoriasis have more d...
