gallbladder torsion is a rare surgical emergency that can not be differentiated from acute cholecystitis.this condition occurs primarily in elderly women,although it may be encountered in early adulthood of both sexes.the anatomic background is based on variation in the attachment of the gallbladder to the inferior surface of the liver,if a patient with the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis dose...

PURPOSE We assessed reproductive and testicular function in adult rats after testicular torsion created before, during and after puberty, and with vs without resveratrol or arginine treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Age matched rats were divided into groups, including simulated surgery without testicular torsion, 720-degree testicular torsion for 4 hours, testicular torsion with resveratrol tr...

Let  $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. We say that $I$ satisfies the persistence property if  $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^k)subseteq mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $I$. In this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring  $R=K[x_1,ld...

early-onset, generalized primary torsion dystonia (ptd) is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterized by involuntary movements and abnormal postures. the majority of cases are caused by a 3-bp deletion (gag deletion at position 946) in the dyt1 gene on chromosome 9q34 that allows for specific genetic testing. forty eight patients with early onset primary torsion dystonia were screened for th...

solvable graphs (also known as reachable graphs) are types of graphs that any arrangement of a specified number of agents located on the graph’s vertices can be reached from any initial arrangement through agents’ moves along the graph’s edges, while avoiding deadlocks (interceptions). in this paper, the properties of solvable graphs are investigated, and a new concept in multi agent moti...

objective(s): to evaluate the protective effect of erdosteine, an antiapoptotic and antioxidant agent, on torsion–detorsion evoked histopathological changes in experimental ovarian ischemia-reperfusion (ir) injury. materials and methods: eighteen female wistar albino rats were used in control, ir, and ir+edosteine (ir-e) groups, (n=6 in each). the ir-e group received the erdosteine for seven da...

Shortening of oblique left ventricular (LV) fibers results in torsion. A unique relationship between volume and torsion is therefore expected, and the effects of load and contractility on torsion should be predictable. However, volume-independent behavior of torsion has been observed, and the effects of load on this deformation remain controversial. We used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with...

The study of modules over a finite von Neumann algebra A can be advanced by the use of torsion theories. In this work, some torsion theories for A are presented, compared and studied. In particular, we prove that the torsion theory (T,P) (in which a module is torsion if it is zero-dimensional) is equal to both Lambek and Goldie torsion theories for A. Using torsion theories, we describe the inj...

Corrective osteotomies are often planned and performed on the basis of normal anatomical proportions. We have evaluated the length and torsion of the segments of the lower limb in normal individuals, to analyse the differences between left and right sides, and to provide tolerance figures for both length and torsion. We used CT on 355 adult patients and measured length and torsion by the Ulm me...

In the early seventies D. Ray and I. Singer [17] introduced the notion of zeta-regularized determinants. They used it to define the analytic version of Reidemeister torsion as an alternating product of determinants. One way to understand analytic torsion is to consider it as a ”multiplicative index” of an elliptic complex. By the L2-index theorem of M. Atiyah [1] this analogy suggests that one ...
