the aim of this study was to find any structural differences between the digital pads of forelimbs and hind limbs as well as more careful investigation of the internal and external structures of the toe-pad. in this study, pad morphology and cytology in litoria caerulea is described using sem, tem and light microscopy. at the gross anatomical level, toe-pads in hind limbs were subdivided into m...

BACKGROUND: Drought stress and climate changes cause damage led to reduction in agricultural production. OBJECTIVES: Evaluation the impact of different levels of super absorbent polymer (SAP) on reducing the effects of drought stress on some physiological traits and activity of some antioxidant enzymes in wheat crop. METHODS: Current research...

We describe a collection of Pad e-type methods for accelerating the convergence of sequence of functions. The construction and connections of Pad e’s methods with other similar methods are given. We examine the e ectiveness of these new methods, namely integral Pad e approximant, modi ed Pad e approximant and squared Pad e approximant together with the well-established methods, namely functiona...

Abstract Absorbent packaging is a form of food designed to absorb excess liquid and moisture that may be present in products. This article provides bibliometric analysis the literature on food-absorbent packaging. The was conducted using Scopus database, 121 documents were selected for study. According study’s findings, number publications absorbent has grown over time. As productive countries,...

Application strategies for avian repellents are needed to maintain efficacious repellent concentrations throughout the period of needed crop protection. We investigated the repellency of an ultraviolet (UV) feeding cue in the absence of postingestive consequences, the combination of the UV feeding cue and an UV-absorbent, postingestive repellent (i.e., a repellent that causes negative postinges...

To describe prevalence and impact of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), data were collected over 5 months from 6 Middle Eastern countries. Patients were divided into 2 groups (with and without PAD). Out of 6705 consecutive ACS patients, PAD was reported in 177 patients. In comparison to non-PAD, PAD patients were older and more likely to have cardi...

BACKGROUND Data on the natural history of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are scarce and are focused primarily on clinical symptoms. Using noninvasive tests, we assessed the role of traditional and novel risk factors on PAD progression. We hypothesized that the risk factors for large-vessel PAD (LV-PAD) progression might differ from small-vessel PAD (SV-PAD). METHODS AND RESULTS Between 199...

Using noninvasive tests, we assessed the role of traditional and novel risk factors on PAD progression.
