The microtubes are important structures in nano electromechanical system .in this study a nonlocal model is presented to investigate the static torsion behavior of microtubes made of bi-directional factionally graded material (BDFGM) subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field. Mechanical properties of BDFGM microtube varies in the radial and longitudinal direction according to an arbitrary func...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Reflux esophagitis (RE) is the most common manifestation of gastro-esophageal reflux disease with esophageal injury. To the best of our knowledge, there has been no specific study to evaluate the risk of stroke after diagnosis of RE in young adults. This study aims to evaluate the risk of stroke among RE patients aged 18 to 50 years during a 1-year period after diagnosis ...

A model-free theoretical framework for phenomenological description of spinlattice relaxation by anomalous translational diffusion in inhomogeneous systems based on the fractional diffusion equation is developed. The dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time on the size of the pores in porous glass Vycor is experimentally obtained and found to agree well with theoretical predictions. We ob...

In fact, besides the avoidance of morbidities associated with traditional anterior or posterior interbody fusion techniques, including injury to visceral, vascular or neural structures, minimally invasive LLIF enables the surgeon to spare the anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments during the surgical approach, and to implant cages with a large footprint, designed to span the dense apophy...

The results of operation on 46 cases of slipped disc have been studied. The age of the patient and the duration of pre-operative symptoms both influence the late results. Results were not usually satisfactory in cases with severe limitation of straight-leg raising. Severe pressure on the nerve-root produces permanent changes and symptoms do not always disappear after its relief. The presence of...

we reported a 35 year old breast cancer patient who was referred to our nuclear medicine department for sentinel node mapping. she was planned to undergo mastectomy and lymphatic mapping. a dose of tc-99m phytate was injection in the peri-areolar region in an intra-dermal fashion. two hours post-injection no sentinel node was visible in the axilla. due to a high liver uptake, inadvertent intra-...

objectives: this study aimed to assess the effect of re-etching of desensitized dentin for five and 10 seconds on marginal microleakage of composite restorations. materials and methods: class v cavities (4x2x2mm) were prepared on the buccal surfaces of 64 third molars and randomly divided into four groups of 16. in the control group, single bond (sb) adhesive was applied after etching. in bb+sb...
