We decided to perform some supplementary tests on the window overlap. We apply our technique to different time shifts from the 1 hr used in the paper, to 72 hr for all the SG stations. The 72 hr shift gives no overlap, and hence completely independent estimates of A0 and Q for each shift. Fig A1 is the comparison for the recovery of the amplitude, for 9 different shifts. It can be seen that the...

Introduction Hypospadias is a wide spectrum of abnormalities involving the inferior surface of the penis and having in common a urethral opening that lies on the inferior surface of the penis, (hypo = under; spadias = opening or rent). The spectrum of hypospadias anomalies includes an abnormal urethral opening, chordee (ventral curvature of the penis), an incomplete prepuce, rotation of the pen...

Early B lymphopoiesis is marked by plasticity between the myeloid and B lineages. An attractive model for B-lineage development is that commitment to this lineage is partly determined by the ordered expression of genes that prohibit switching to the myeloid lineage. In this regard, whereas the role of the B-cell–specific transcription factor BSAP/Pax5A in regulating B-lymphoid–restricted gene e...

This paper focuses on two key issues in building case-based reasoners (CBRs). The first issue is the knowledge engineering phase needed for CBRs as well as knowledge-based systems (KBS); the second issue is the integration of different methods of learning into CBRs. We show that we can use a knowledge modelling framework for the description and implementation of CBR systems; in particular we sh...

ABST RACT The ideal treatment for pseudomyxoma peritonei is an active area of investigation with mounting evidence for the benefit of complete cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (HIPEC). The unusual nature of this disease was demonstrated with a report of a patient with pseudomyxoma peritonei of appendiceal origin discovered thirty-two years after appendectomy. The re...

WITH THE INCREASING integration of molecular genetics into the study of human diseases we have come to almost expect that, whenever a new gene is cloned, the next paper will report the consequences of ‘knocking out’ the gene. In a way, we are thus witnessing the logical updating of a century-old approach to the study of physiology. To define the function of an organ, a simple way was to remove ...

Radiography by computed tomography for dental and jaw use (dental CT) has recentry attracted attention as a new diagnostic imaging technique in dentistry. The 3DX Multi-Image Micro CT® (3DX, Morita) is the first exclusively registered dental CT in Japan. A high-definition 3-dimensional image of a cylindrical imaging area, 40 mm in diameter and 30 mm in height, can be taken by using a small-type...

This study is aimed at evaluating and measuring the factors affecting the Dezful wheat farmers` attitude toward the extension of wheat waste reduction. The method of research was correlative- descriptive. The population of this study is all farmers cultivated wheat in Dezful from 2011 to 2012 (n=5291). The Number of samples size was 360 based on Krejcie and Morgan table. Panel of experts and Al...

Effects of neglecting climatic patterns in buildings are more intense in severe climates such as tropical. It isresulting an excessive consumption of fossil fuels and consequently environmental pollutions in and after modern era. The objective of this research is to find climate-oriented intentions and solutions in tropical areas and compare them with Dezful and Bandar-e-Lenge vernacular houses...
