in order to investigate the effects of nitrogen application rates and different planting beds on yield and yield components of garlic (allium sativum l.), a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on a randomized complete block design with four replications at the agricultural research station, azad university of torbat-e-jam, iran, during 2009-2010. three nitrogen application rates ...

fibrovascular polyps are rare, pedunculated, tumor-like lesions that are usually found in the esophagus; occurrence in the stomach is very rare. to our knowledge, sonographic and ct findings of a fibrovascular polyp in the stomach have never been reported. here, we report a case of a fibrovascular polyp that was identified in the gastric antrum and prolapsed into the duodenal bulb. sonography r...

In cases of large maxillary defects and trismus that result from surgical removal a tumor in the maxilla, use two pieces obturator overcome problem improve retention by engagement all desirable undercuts which enhance obturator. Improve help patient to continue his/her life. The case study describes construction with silicon bulb attached hollow Bulb ledge.

We present a model of an olfactory system that performs odor segmentation. Based on the anatomy and physiology of natural olfactory systems, it consists of a pair of coupled modules, bulb and cortex. The bulb encodes the odor inputs as oscillating patterns. The cortex functions as an associative memory: When the input from the bulb matches a pattern stored in the connections between its units, ...

Only recently have we been satisfied with the data obtained from recording the pH of luminal contents within the duodenal bulb in situ. The improvement in technique consisted of concurrent recording of antral and duodenal transmucosal potential differences so that the site of the electrode could be determined without fluoroscopy (Archambault, Rovelstad, and Carlson, 1967). A logical application...

Damage to the olfactory bulb and tract is a frequently described complication of brain surgery in the frontal region, and it seems to be influenced by the surgical approaches. Eighty cerebral hemispheres and 5 formalin-fixed cadavers filled with colored latex were used. Parameters were directly measured, and after olfactory bulb and tract were mobilized with careful dissections, retraction of t...

The molecular mechanisms that regulate the production and diversity of olfactory bulb interneurons remain poorly understood. With the exception of the GABAergic/dopaminergic subtype in the glomerular layer, no information exists concerning the generation of the other subtypes. Here we show that the recently identified zinc finger transcription factor Sp8 is expressed in neurogenic regions, whic...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The existence of gastric metaplasia (GM) of the duodenal mucosa has been considered to be highly related to the recurrence of duodenal ulcers (DU). The aims of this study are to evaluate the usefulness of methylene blue staining in the detection of GM, and to clarify the relationship between GM and the deformity of the duodenal bulb. METHODS Fifteen patients with healed DU...

Isoforms of onion bulb GSTs (designated as GSTa, GSTb, as minor, and GSTc, GSTd and GSTe as dominant GSTs) were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, and variation in the activity of dominant GSTs was studied in winter and spring. Among the dominant GSTs, GSTc and GSTd were found to have similar activity levels in both seasons. In case of GSTe, distinct activity levels were observed in wi...

BACKGROUND Studies have demonstrated that villous atrophy in celiac disease is patchy and have suggested that duodenal bulb biopsies aid in diagnosis. OBJECTIVE To determine the role of the addition of duodenal bulb biopsies to distal duodenum (D2) biopsies in the diagnosis of celiac disease. DESIGN Prospective, case-control study. SETTING Tertiary referral hospital. PATIENTS Patients u...
