Introduction: Noonan syndrome (NS) is a heterogeneous genetic disease that affects many parts of the body. It was named after Dr. Jacqueline Anne Noonan, a paediatric cardiologist.Case Report: We report audiological tests and auditory brainstem response (ABR) findings in a 5-year old Malay boy with NS. Despite showing the marked signs of NS, the child could only produce a few meaningful words. ...

background and aims. plasma rich in growth factors (prgf) is a concentrated suspension of growth factors, which is used to promote periodontal tissue regeneration. the aim of this randomized, controlled, clinical trial was to evaluate of the treatment of grade ii mandibular molar furcation involvement using autogenous bone graft with and without prgf. materials and methods. in this double-blind...

The visuotopic organization of the second visual area (V II) in the owl monkey was mapped by determining the receptive field positions for single neurons and small clusters of neurons recorded with microelectrodes. Our data indicate that V II is a long narrow strip of cortex which appears to correspond to area 18 of BrodmannB• The results also indicate that the topological transformation of the...

background: soil serves as a major reservoir for contaminants as it can bind to various chemicals. the aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of some metals (cd, cu, fe and v) in soil samples collected from different stations of ahvaz industrial complex ii to determine the natural and anthropogenic contribution of metal in the soil. methods: this was an experimental study that carried out...

We present COBS — a model of a concurrent object-based computational system with handshakes as elementary actions of inter-process communication. Processes are considered to be partial views of the system. Their communication by asynchronous message passing and variable sharing is modeled by elementary processes on the same abstraction level. The same acts of computation and communication can b...
