The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of artemia enriched with lipid emulsions containing highly unsaturated fatty acids on growth and survival of juvenile freshwater crayfish Astacus leptodactylus. Juvenile crayfish were fed artemia enriched with commercial emulsions (red pepper and olio ω3) and un-enriched artemia (control). The highest eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) level was ...

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) accounts for about 10% of all childhood cancers. Five-year survival rates with modern therapies are now approaching >90-95% as a consequence of its significant sensitivity to both chemotherapy and radiation. The current challenge is to determine how much therapy is needed to improve survival and how to adapt treatment to the patient to prevent these long term toxicities. T...

background: today, despite the many advances in early detection of diseases, cancer patients have a poor prognosis and the survival rates in them are low. recently, microarray technologies have been used for gathering thousands data about the gene expression level of cancer cells. these types of data are the main indicators in survival prediction of cancer. this study highlights the improvement...

This paper describes a pattern-based approach to building packet classifiers. One novelty of the approach is that it can be implemented efficiently in both software and hardware. A performance study shows that the software implementation is about twice as fast as existing mechanisms, and that the hardware implementation is currently able to keep up with OC-12 (622Mbps) network links and is like...

the open pulled straw has been used effectively to vitrify preimplantation embryos because of geometricfeatures that allow rapid rates of temperature exchange. one possible inexpensive alternative to the openpulled straw are commercially-available microcapillary pipette tips commonly used for electrophoresis. themain purpose of this study was to compare the survival rates of in vitro produced b...

background and aims. the aim of this study was to compare the biocompatibility of calcium-enriched mixture ce-ment (cem), composite resin and nano-particled mineral trioxide aggregate (np-mta) using human gingival fibroblasts. materials and methods. a comparative in vitro cell culture study was carried out using 60 single-rooted teeth which were assigned to the following four groups: 1) untreat...

background and aims. despite the very good results, implant treatment has also been associated with some failures. the aim of this study was to evaluate the success rate, survival rate, and tissue health indices around xive® dental implants placed in patients in a dental office in isfahan. materials and methods. in this cross-sectional study, 129 xive® dental implants were selected. a form was ...
