background injuries with sharps are common occupational hazards for healthcare workers. such injuries predispose the staff to dangerous infections such as hepatitis b, c and hiv. objectives the present study was conducted to investigate the behaviors of healthcare workers in kashan healthcare centers after needle sticks and injuries with sharps in 2012. materials and methods a cross-sectional s...

A condition for when two eight-dimensional absolute valued algebras are isomorphic was given in [4]. We use this condition to deduce a description (in the sense of Dieterich, [9]) of the category of such algebras, and show how previous descriptions of some full subcategories fit in this description. Led by the structure of these examples, we aim at systematically constructing new subcategories ...

We use the available data on e+e− → hadrons to determine the value of the QED coupling at the Z pole. The inclusion of recent preliminary BES-II data in the analysis is found to reduce the ambiguity in the determination of the coupling, particularly that arising from the use of either exclusive or inclusive data in the energy region √ s ∼ 2 GeV, in favour of a larger value of α(M2 Z) −1 = 128.9...

We studied the age-related differences in inspection time and multiple cognitive domains in a group of monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins aged 7 to 17 years. Data from 111 twin pairs and 19 singleton siblings were included. We found clear agerelated trends towards more efficient visual information processing in older participants. There were substantial correlations between inspection ti...

We derive the Kac-Paljutkin finite-dimensional Hopf algebras as finite fibrations of the quantum double torus and generalize the construction for quantum multiple tori.

Introduction: Foreign Body Aspiration (FBA) represents a life-threatening emergency .It occurs primarily in children below 3 years. Generally, the most common aspirated FB is organic material such as nuts or beans. Sharp Foreign Bodies (FBs) are of particular concern to the attending clinician, because of their potential to perforate the air passage and cause possible complications. Here in, we...
