During Poster Viewing sessions at least one author should be present at the poster, to explain and discuss the idea and results of the project with other participants.

Students and nurses in the workplace may be asked to do a presentation using a poster format. This article provides guidelines for creating an effective poster presentation.

Background:  Research projects are presented at the Annual Meetings of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH). It is unknown how many achieve publication in peer-reviewed journals. We sought to determine current rates of publication of podium and poster presentations.   Methods:  All ASSH podium and poster presentations from 2000 to 2005 were reviewed, and an Internet-based search ...

This is a summary of the presentations made in the poster session and the two open space sessions at the TMRA 2006 conference. The poster session consists of peer-reviewed conference submissions accepted as posters, while the open space sessions were free-form sessions where anyone could sign up to do a short presentation. The result is a collection of reports on works in progress and interesti...

introduction: mesenchymal stem cells can be isolated from adult tissues, such as the adipose tissue, or other sources. among all these sources, adipose tissue because of easy access, and placenta due to its immunomodulatory properties, in addition to another useful properties, were attracted more attention to themselves. isolation and comparing these two different sources can help us for access...

introduction  insulin-like growth factor i (igf-i) which is produced in abundance in the normal adult liver, is deeply involved in hepatocyte survival, growth, and differentiation during liver development. igf-i plays the roles via the receptor (igf-ir) signaling pathway. igf-ir unlike igf-i is expressed strongly in the developing liver, but much more weakly in adults. objective:  we hypothesiz...

background  the mammary gland in humans is a dynamic organ that undergoes significant developmental changes during pregnancy, lactation, and involution. stem cells derived from human breast milk possess the adult stem cell-like characteristics such as self-renewal, proliferative and differentiate potential. this source of stem cells avoids invasive procedures and the ethical controversy of embr...

background  multiple procedures (lumbar puncture and bone marrow aspiration /biopsy) cause pain, stress, depression and etc for the patients and their families. various methods have been recommended for pain reduction during invasive procedures. the aim of this study is to report the complications following general anesthesia. methods in this prospective observational study, two hundred and two...

background sall gene family represent a group of evolutionary conserved zinc finger transcription factors which are involved in normal development. it includes four members (sall1 to sall4). sall4 has significant roles in the maintenance of pluripotency and self-renewal, efficient proliferation /stabilization and cell fate decision of embryonic stem cells (escs). our aim in this study was to an...
