Many researchers in the field of forensic odontology have questioned the error estimates stated in Gustafson's paper outlining the relationship between certain dental attributes and age. In a substantial re-working of Gustafson's data, Maples and Rice corrected Gustafson's regression statistics and found that the error associated with the age estimate was nearly double that claimed by Gustafson...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Forest tree saplings that grow in the understorey undergo frequent changes in their light environment to which they must adapt to ensure their survival and growth. Crown architecture, which plays a critical role in light capture and mechanical stability, is a major component of sapling adaptation to canopy disturbance. Shade-adapted saplings typically have plagiotropic stems...

cytomegalovirus (cmv) infection can cause colitis which is usually manifested with fever, weight loss, anorexia and abdominal pain.watery diarrhea can be the only manifestation. cmv colitis usually can not be diagnosed according to the clinical findings. moreover, endoscopic appearance can exactly mimic pseudo-membranous colitis. here by, we are presenting a patient with fever and watery diarrh...

objective(s):this study aims at exploring cytotoxic activity of different peptides derived from vsvg protein against mcf-7 and mda-mb-231 breast cancer cell lines and human embryonic kidney normal cell (hek 293).    materials and methods: the anticp web server was used to predict anticancer peptides. the cytotoxic activity of peptides with high score (p26, p7) and low score (p19) was examined b...

in this paper, we propose a new definition of intuitionistic fuzzyquasi-metric and pseudo-metric spaces based on intuitionistic fuzzy points. weprove some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy quasi- metric and pseudo-metricspaces, and show that every intuitionistic fuzzy pseudo-metric space is intuitionisticfuzzy regular and intuitionistic fuzzy completely normal and henceintuitionistic fuzzy nor...
