Strong opioids are recommended for treating severe cancer pain in the advanced stages of the disease. Few data are available concerning the efficacy of buprenorphine in cancer pain. We compared transdermal buprenorphine 70 microg/h (BUP TDS) to placebo in an enriched design study. Opioid-tolerant patients with cancer pain requiring strong opioids in the dose range of 90-150 mg/d oral morphine e...

in this research, the groundwater quality of hoz–e–soltan lake and its catchment was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses according to different parameters. this lake with 195 km2 catchment area is located 85 km of southwest of tehran–qom highway. in order to investigate groundwater quality characteristics in the study area, 34 data from water of well belong to 2008 selected to pr...

Intensive crop cultivation systems require continuous monitoring of irrigation water quality as well the control physical and chemical soil properties. In view ongoing climate change a dramatic decrease in organic matter content, use low its adverse effects on soil, cultivated plants equipment must not be overlooked. The aim this paper was to evaluate general from different intake sources Vojvo...

<p>Groundwater is a vital source of irrigation and domestic purposes in Bangladesh, hence, it must satisfy the water quality guidelines. The study has selected eleven (11) Districts Bangladesh collect secondary data regarding groundwater. Several indices, such as soluble sodium percentage (SSP), adsorption ratio (SAR), magnesium (MAR), residual carbonate (RSC), Kelly’s (KR), permeability ...

Groundwater aquifers are an important source of water supply for agriculture, industry and drinking. The present study investigates the changes in the quality of groundwater using geostatistical methods in the Ravar plain during a 10-year period. In this study, after selecting the appropriate spatial interpolation method to draw water quality parameters such as TDS, SAR and EC, zoning maps of R...

We show that nucleic acid structures may be conveniently and inexpensively characterized by their UV thermal difference spectra. A thermal difference spectrum (TDS) is obtained for a nucleic acid by simply recording the ultraviolet absorbance spectra of the unfolded and folded states at temperatures above and below its melting temperature (T(m)). The difference between these two spectra is the ...

Results The mean AUC(0,12 h) was higher following application of TDS ® -testosterone (61.8 ng ml − 1 h), compared with Androgel ® (57.7 ng ml − 1 h) and TDS ® -placebo (50.7 ng ml − 1 h. The mean C max (0,12 h) was similar for TDS ® -testosterone (6.6 ng ml −1 ) and Androgel ® (6.5 ng ml − 1 ) and these values were higher than those for TDS ® -placebo (5.7 ng ml − 1 ). Analysis of variance show...

Considering the complexity of hydrological processes, it seems that multivariate methods may enhance the accuracy of time series models and the results obtained from them by taking more influential factors into account. Indeed, the results of multivariate models can improve the results of description, modeling, and prediction of different parameters by involving other influential factors. In th...
