cisplatin is a common chemotherapeutic agent that used for treatment of many solid cancers. rapid identification of chemotherapy resistance is very important and may lead to effective treatment plan. spectroscopy techniques, such as infrared spectroscopy, which are sensitive to biochemical composition of samples, have shown potentials to discriminate tissues. developing in fourier transform inf...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tillage methods to obtain suitable seedbed for monogerm seed. therefore, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replicatians was conducted at darab station of fars province. the main plot was seedbed prepration at two levels including fall and spring season. subplot included 1) moldboard plow a...

OBJECTIVES This report presents national estimates of the use of non-Federal short-stay hospitals in the United States during 1997. Numbers and rates of discharges, diagnoses, and procedures are shown by age and sex. Discharges are also shown by geographic region of the hospital. Average lengths of stay are presented for all discharges and for selected diagnostic categories by age and by sex. ...

The partitioning of carbon in intact, mature cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leaves was examined by steady-state (14)CO(2) labeling. Plants were exposed to dark periods of varying lengths, followed by similar illuminated labeling periods. These treatments produced leaves with a range of starch and soluble sugar contents, carbon exchange, and carbon export rates. Export during the illuminated per...

We compare observations of the eclipsing binary system CM Draconis (hereafter CM Dra) with synthetic spectra computed using the stellar atmosphere code PHOENIX. High-resolution infrared spectroscopic observations of six 0.05-mm-wide regions between 1.51 and 2.45mm, combined with previous work, particularly CM Dra’s accurately known surface gravity, enable us to estimate its metallicity using de...

background: to analyze the dosimetric and radio biologic advantages between intensity modulated radiotherapy (imrt) and 3 dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3dcrt) and selection of optimal photon energy for imrt treatments. material and methods: 24 patients with localized prostate carcinoma were planned for 3dcrt and imrt techniques. radiation dose of 54 gy with 2 gy/fraction, was planned to p...

planting pattern can be adjusted by changing row spacing and row width, one row and two- row planting and plant interval on rows. in order to obtain the optimum planting pattern of a monogerm hybrid cultivar and its effect on the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of this cultivar, an experiment was conducted in two years (2001-2002) in zarghan area of farsprovince. the measured chara...

On April 17, 2012, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published a rule proposing postponement of the implementation date for the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition diagnosis codes (ICD-10-CM) and procedure codes (ICD-10-PCS) by one year to October 1, 2014. An article in Health Affairs titled "There Are Important Reasons For Delaying the Implementation Of The N...
