the serious influenza-associated complications among immunodeficient individuals such as those who are infected with human immunodeficiency virus (hiv), highlights the importance of influenza vaccination in these people. therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the antibody responses to influenza vaccine in this group. two hundred subjects were recruited, during autumn 2010 and 2011, t...

leukotriene receptor antagonists(montelukast) have been used for many years in the treatment of asthma both acute and chronic stages. they are accepted commonly as safe but mostly possible side effects are ignored. however, montelukast also could lead to important adverse reactions like hallucinations. in literature only 2 reports have been found about hallucinations with it. one is a study whi...

case presentation we present a case of a grade iii coronary perforation in which the double guiding catheter technique helped us to deliver the graft stent. conclusions the double-guiding technique is useful in emergency situations to increase the safety and efficacy of sealing a coronary perforation. introduction coronary vessel perforation is one of the most feared complications of coronary a...

Observations of the sea surface height in the Argentine Basin indicate that strong variability occurs on a time scale of 20 30 days. The aim of this study is to determine the physical processes responsible for this variability. First, results are presented from two statistical techniques applied to a decade of altimetric data. A complex empirical orthogonal function (CEOF) analysis identifies t...

[1] Quantifying the ejecta distribution around large lunar basins is important to understanding the origin of basin rings, the volume of the transient cavity, the depth of sampling, and the nature of the basin formation processes. We have used newly obtained altimetry data of the Moon from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) instrument to estimate the thickness of ejecta in the region surr...

Spatial and attribute database of the glaciers and glacial lakes of whole Nepal had developed by ICIMOD in collaboration with UNEP/RRC-AP in 2001 using remote sensing and geographic information systems techniques. There are altogether 3,252 glaciers covering an area of 5,322 square kilometer with approximately 481 km of ice reserves. The Mahakali River basin comprises 87 glaciers with an area o...

this paper tries to systematically survey, with taking theoretical view on geomorphic basin and its changes into account. the purpose of this research is to determine the balance and stability of geomorphic basins from the past to present and then to future. consequently, it tries to determine the balance between energy and input-output materials for example (rainfall , solar radiation, tectoni...
