Biorhythm is one of the latest topics in the field of identifying mind’s ergonomics. Of all the performances with which biorhythm deals is the physical performance. The purpose of present research is to study the effect of physical cycle of biorhythm on the designated factors of physical fitness among teenage volleyball players in the city of Qom. In the present field research, 30 people were...

PurposeAssessing quality of life (QoL) after esophageal replacement (ER) for long gap atresia (LGEA).MethodsAll patients ER LGEA with gastric pull-up (GPU n = 9) or jejunum interposition (JI 14) at the University Medical Center Groningen and Utrecht (1985–2007) were included. QoL was assessed 1) gastrointestinal-related using Gastrointestinal Quality Life Index (GIQLI)), 2) general (Child Healt...

BACKGROUND Esophageal replacement (ER) surgery has been widely used in long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) over the past few decades. The most commonly used surgical approaches in many pediatric surgical centers include colon interposition (CI), gastric pull-up (GPU), jejunal interposition (JI), and gastric tube reconstruction (GTR). However, there is no systematic evidence on which is the optim...

objective(s):mirnas have been proposed to be key regulators of tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis. however, their effect and prognostic value in gastric cancer is still poorly known. materials and methods: gastric cancer cell lines were cultured. tissue samples obtained from 36 gastric cancer patients were used for quantitative real-time pcr (qrt-pcr) analysis. the tissue microarrays (tm...

In this paper we examine data dissemination in MANETs using various push and pull based protocols and a combination of both. We evaluate the protocols considering the load for each node and the resulting data freshness. Furthermore we introduce an adaptive pull protocol which enhances dissemination and saves up to 13% of the network load achieving the same freshness rate as other protocols.

Naturally occurring radon in ground water can potentially be used as an in situ partitioning tracer to characterize dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) saturations. The static method involves comparing radon concentrations in water samples from DNAPL-contaminated and noncontaminated portions of an aquifer, while the push-pull method involves the injection (push) and extraction (pull) of a rad...

PURPOSE A new endorectal pull-through technique using a transanal approach is presented in this report. METHODS Mucosectomy, colectomy, and pull-through are performed transanally, and neither laparotomy or laparoscopy are required. Five patients affected with Hirschsprung's disease have been operated on with this technique. CONCLUSION During the 6- to 15-month follow-up period, all of them ...

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Insertion of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is standard care for many patients with oropharyngeal (ENT) and esophageal malignancies in order to ensure enteral feeding. The current pull-through insertion technique involves direct contact with the tumor and case reports have demonstrated the presence of metastases at insertion sites. The aim of the current s...
