conclusions our study demonstrated that the b1 gene, more so than the re gene, showed positive samples and can be used to detect toxoplasmosis, although the b1 gene, in comparison to the re gene, did not show any superiority of molecular diagnosing capability. results also showed that toxoplasma molecular detection methods can be used instead of routine serological detection methods in a clinic...

thinking simultaneously of humor and battlefield is hardly expectable; however, the most genuine jokes can be seen in this very battlefield verbal culture in a simple and sensitive form which has rarely been paid attention to. this witticism can be categorized into four classes; namely, devotional, fight and martyrdom, drinking and eating, and social interactions which have the most similitude ...

Background: The aim of this study was evaluation of developmental rate and Bax, Bcl-2 and ErbB4 genes expression following re-vitrification in compact and early blastocysts stages. Materials and Methods: 5-8 cell embryos were collected from female mature mice, 60-62 hours post hCG injection. The embryos were divided to five groups including: fresh, vitrified at 5-8 cells, vitrified at blastocys...

The exchange rate unification is one of the most important instruments of economic adjustment, which is used in many countries. This paper shows the effects of the exchange rate unification on price level (inflation), gross domestic production (GDP), non-oil exports, private conception, government expenditure and stock of money. The data, is used related to the period 1959-2000. To analyze the ...

Abstract. Credible inference requires attention to the possible fragility of the results (p-values for key hypothesis tests) to flaws in the model assumptions, notably including the validity of the instruments used. Past sensitivity analysis has mainly consisted of experimentation with alternative model specifications and with tests of over-identifying restrictions. We provide a feasible sensit...

Credible inference requires attention to the possible fragility of the results (p-values for key hypothesis tests) to flaws in the model assumptions, notably accounting for the validity of the instruments used. Past sensitivity analysis has mainly consisted of experimentation with alternative model specifications and with tests of over-identifying restrictions which actually presuppos...

In this paper, we present a limiting distribution theory for the break point estimator in a linear regression model with multiple structural breaks obtained by minimizing a Two Stage Least Squares (2SLS) objective function. Our analysis covers both the case in which the reduced form for the endogenous regressors is stable and the case in which it is unstable with multiple structural breaks. For...
