Corrosion behavior of mild steel in chloride contaminated alkaline solution has been studied for the period up to 100days. Saturated Calcium hydroxide solution was used as alkaline solution and 0.5M NaCl solution was used to accelerate mild steel corrosion. The Charge transfer resistance Rct, Current density Icorr and inhibition efficiency values were obtained from tafel polarization and electr...

Background: Hip involvement in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a common extraspinal arthritic manifestation, which is associated to a worse functional outcome. Little data are available on the effectiveness of conservative treatment strategies. The TNF inhibitors have been proven effective on AS activity parameters. Their structural effect on hip disease however, little is studied. Case pres...

background: there is controversy over the potential benefits/harms of the usage of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (aceis) or angiotensin receptor blockers (arbs) as regards the postoperative mortality of coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg). this study investigates the correlation between the in-hospital mortality of cabg and the preoperative administration of acei/arb. methods: out...

objective: serotonin reuptake inhibitors are frequently used in first-line treatments for patients ‎with obsessive-compulsive disorder. nevertheless, many of these patients do not ‎respond well to initial therapy. the hypothesis of glutamatergic dysfunction in specific ‎brain regions has been proposed in the pathophysiology of obsessive-compulsive ‎disorder. this study was designed to evaluate ...

in this paper, the quantitative structure activity-relationship (qsar) of the ccr2b receptor inhibitors was scrutinized. firstly, the molecular descriptors were calculated using the dragon package. then, the stepwise multiple linear regressions (sw-mlr) and the genetic algorithm multiple linear regressions (ga-mlr) variable selection methods were subsequently employed to select and implement th...

aim and background: considering the high frequency of anxiety and depressive symptoms in irritable bowel syndrome (ibs) patients, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris) are recommended by some gastroenterologists for treatment. in this study, the efficacy of fluvoxamine on severity of symptoms and quality of life in ibs patients was assessed. methods and materials: a randomized, double...

Currently, there are about 37 million people worldwide living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) /AIDS, with an estimated two million new cases per year globally. According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), only 75% of the population with HIV know their status. Initially, HIV infection was associated with significantly increased rates of mortality and morbidity. Howeve...

Hydrates are crystalline compounds similar to ice, with guest molecules like methane and ethane trapped inside cavities or cages formed by the hydrogen bounded framework of water molecules. These solid compounds give rise to problems in the natural gas oil industry because they can plug pipelines and process equipments. Low dosage hydrate inhibitors are a recently developed hydrate control tech...

the effect of four inhibitors on calmalulin (cum) were studied by a ftuorescence and ultraviolet techniques. four compounds in - ( 6 - aminohexyt) 5-chloro - i - napthalenesulphonamide] (w-7), 1 - [ bis - (4 - chtorophenyt) methyl] - 3 - [2, 4-dichloro - β - ( 2 , 4 - dichlorobenzyloxyl) phenethyt] imidazolium chloride (r24571), trifluoperazine (tfp) , thiodiphenylamide chloride (tdpac) showed ...
