background femur fracture is one of the most common fractures in children. certain parameters such as the patient’s age, the exact location of fracture, type of fracture, the mechanism of fracture, and the accompanying injuries determine which one of the many treatment techniques be used in each case. objectives we aimed to compare the results of close and open techniques in pediatric femoral s...

the ordinary tensor product of modules is defined using bilinear maps (bimorphisms), that are linear in eachcomponent. keeping this in mind, linton and banaschewski with nelson defined and studied the tensor product in an equational category and in a general (concrete) category k, respectively, using bimorphisms, that is, defined via the hom-functor on k. also, the so-called sesquilinear, or on...

three-hundred and twenty 7-day-old ross 308-strain broiler chickens were fed diets containing 0 or 125 ppb aflatoxin b 1 (afb1) from 7 to 28 days of age. sodium bentonite (0.5%), yeast (saccharomyces cervisiae) 0.2%, hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate (hscas) (0.5%), ammonia (0.5%), formycine (0.1%), and toxiban (0.1%) were added to the basal diet, as fed basis to determine the effects of ...

a 41-year old mentally retarded patient presented acutely with a 3 day history of vomiting and absolute constipation.  intestinal obstruction was diagnosed following an abdominal x ray. at laparotomy, a left paraduodenal hernia was present, without incarceration of small bowel. the herniated loops were reduced and the hernia orifice closed. the anatomy, treatment and importance of considering t...

fish is one of the important nutrient sources in many parts of the world. consumption of fish like other parts of the world is high in khoozestan province. the role of fish in transmission of some parasitic agents to human is investigated by many researchers. this study aims to investigate internal and external zoonosis parasites and the importance of these parasites in transferring disease in ...

The main proposal is that distributive quantification temporarily makes available two discourse referents within its nuclear scope, the values of which are required by sentence-internal uses of same/different to be identical/distinct—much as their deictic uses require the values of two discourse referents to be identical/distinct. The formal account is independently motivated by quantificationa...

Microscopy, especially fluorescence microscopy, has proven to be a powerful method for studying biological processes. Unfortunately, some of the same features that make biological membranes powerful (for example, all of the action taking place across a narrow 4nm film) also make it difficult to visualize by fluorescence. Over the past 30 years, numerous tricks have been developed to narrow the ...

Inspired by nonstandard analysis, we define and study internal subsets and internal functions in algebras of Colombeau generalized functions. We prove a saturation principle for internal sets and provide applications to Colombeau algebras.

the accomplished researches show that in order to have better external service quality, the organizations need to have personnel (internal customers) responsibility to the objectives and visions of the organization and possess customer-oriented behaviors, and proper internal service (the satisfaction of departments with one another). in these times, after the consideration of internal marketing...

This study proposes a method reducing the tree traversal cost by first investigating the most probable node instead of the root node when a hierarchical template matching is consecutively applied to the object. In particular, this study gives a novel viewpoint that a consecutive hierarchical template matching could be regarded as a transition of a hierarchical finite state machine, and then it ...
