patients and methods we investigated the timing and frequency of acute rejection episodes related to long-term patient-graft survival in taleghani hospital between 1990 and 2011. recipients were divided into three groups as group-1 (no rejection), group-2 (early acute rejection [ear]: less than 3-months) and group-3 (late acute rejection [lar]: after 3 months of transplant). conclusions lar had...

In recent years the heat fluxes that must be removed from terrestrial electrical systems have been steadily increasing. The same increase in electrical component heat flux can also be seen in satellite and aerospace applications. As a result, it has proven necessary to develop heat pump systems that can operate in low-gravity environments with high reliability and efficiency to cool electrical ...

Although rejection sensitivity may be an important feature of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), no studies have examined rejection sensitivity in a clinical sample and compared types of rejection sensitivity in individuals with BDD. Personal and appearance-based rejection sensitivity scores in forty-six patients diagnosed with BDD were compared with published norms. Associations between rejection...

the goals of post-transplant management are to manage and treat postoperative complications, and develop a balanced long-term immunotherapy regimen that minimizes infection and side effects but controls rejection. while modern immunosuppressant regimes have reduced rates of graft loss due to rejection, they impart major risks for infection, growth failure, metabolic complications, and malignanc...

Background: Human cornea expresses functional Fas-ligand capable of killing Fas+ activated lymphocytes. Fas expression is partly regulated by -670 A/G polymorphism in the promoter region of Fas gene. Objective: The aim of the present study is to determine the association between Fas-670A/G polymorphism and survival of corneal transplantation. Methods: In 276 graft recipients who mainly underwen...

In this study; membrane distillation technology using to associated oil water production desalination by air gap unit removed salt from the after separating product, via PTEF commercial hydrophobic with 0.22 µm porous and 0.011 m contact surface area, evaluated system operation parameter for feed effected on process employment under boiling point temperature that getting increments study energy...

Rejection sensitivity is the heightened tendency to perceive or anxiously expect disengagement from others during social interaction. There has been a recent wave of neuroimaging studies of rejection. The aim of the current review was to determine key brain regions involved in social rejection by selectively reviewing neuroimaging studies that employed one of three paradigms of social rejection...
