spinal cord compression due to extramedullary hematopoiesis is a well-described and rare syndrome encountered in several hematological disorders including β-thalassemia. hereby, a 37-year old pregnant woman with intermediate β -thalassemia with paraparesis and lower limb hypoesthesia was presented. mri showed soft tissue masses in both sides of thoracic paraspinal area. histologically, a mixtur...

background: &beta-thalassemia; is the most common monogenic disorder in human. the (ct) polymorphism at -158 upstream region of the &gammag-globin; gene and pharmacological factors such as hydroxyurea have been reported to influence &gamma-globin; gene expression and the severity of clinical symptoms of &beta-thalassemia.; methods: in the present study, 51 &beta-thalassemia; intermediate patie...

Two-dimensional infrared correlation spectroscopy (2D-IR) was applied to the study of urea- and heat-induced unfolding denaturation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SR ATPase). Urea at 2-3 M causes reversible loss of SR ATPase activity, while higher concentrations induce irreversible denaturation. Heat-induced denaturation is a non-two-state process, with an "intermediate state" (at t a...

Recently we have shown that the reduction of the Carruthers-Nieto symmetric quantum phase uctuation parameter (U) with respect to its coherent state value corresponds to an antibunched state, but the converse is not true. Consequently reduction of U is a stronger criterion of nonclassicality than the lowest order antibunching. Here we have studied the possibilities of reduction of U in intermed...

In this paper, we introduce and study  a mapping from the collection of all  intermediate rings of $C(X)$ to the collection of all  realcompactifications of $X$ contained in $beta X$. By establishing the relations between this mapping and its converse,  we give a different approach to the main statements of De et. al. Using these, we provide different answers to the   four basic questions...
