introduction: the role of ovarian hormones and nitric oxide (no) on oxidative damage in brain tissues as well as learning and memory has been widely investigated.the present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of the precursor of no, l-arginine on learning and brain damage due to oxidative stress in ovariectomized (ovx) rats.methods: thirty -two rats were divided into four groups: 1) s...

Introduction: Many clinical applications necessitate a limited scan time for dynamic MRI acquisition, e.g. due to breath hold or contrast passage. This often restricts attainable spatial and temporal resolution, limiting potential diagnostic or research applications. To reconstruct significantly undersampled time frames at clinically desired spatial/temporal resolution a number of approaches ha...

Gluodynamics in 3D spacetime with one spatial direction compactified into a circle of length L is studied.

In the ultimate stage of the Adelson-Bergen motion energy model [Adelson, E. H., & Bergen, J. (1985). Spatiotemporal energy models for the perception of motion. Journal of the Optical Society of America, 2, 284-299], motion is derived from the difference between directionally opponent energies E(L) and E(R). However, Georgeson and Scott-Samuel [Georgeson, M. A., & Scott-Samuel, N. E. (1999). Mo...

Accurate protein function prediction is an important subject in bioinformatics, especially wheresequentially and structurally similar proteins have different functions. Malate dehydrogenaseand L-lactate dehydrogenase are two evolutionary related enzymes, which exist in a widevariety of organisms. These enzymes are sequentially and structurally similar and sharecommon active site residues, spati...

Least squares estimator of the stability parameter ̺ := |α|+ |β| for a spatial unilateral autoregressive process Xk,l = αXk−1,l +βXk,l−1 +εk,l is investigated and asymptotic normality with a scaling factor n5/4 is shown in the unstable case ̺ = 1. The result is in contrast to the unit root case of the AR(p) model Xk = α1Xk−1+ · · ·+αpXk−p+εk, where the limiting distribution of the least squares e...

conclusions it is proposed that the needed research be conducted at national and regional levels in coordination and cooperation with international organizations active in the field of traffic crashes in various parts of the world, especially in asian, african and latin american developing countries, where a greater proportion of pedestrian traffic crashes occur. results a review of the studies...

spatial-temporal modeling of air pollutants, ground-level ozone concentrations in particular, has attracted recent attention because by using spatial-temporal modeling, can analyze, interpolate or predict ozone levels at any location. in this paper we consider daily averages of troposphere ozone over tehran city. for eliminating the trend of data, a dynamic linear model is used, then some featu...
