studies on child language acquisition show that in the lexical development process, generic concept has a significant function, as it has a determining role in the formation of skills such as extension and categorization of concepts. the present research aims to investigate the production and comprehension abilities of generic nouns, as well as the developmental patterns in two age groups (4-5 ...

The asymmetric unit of title hydrated salt, C22H46N4 (2+)·2Cl(-)·4H2O, comprises half a centrosymmetric dication, one Cl(-) anion and two water mol-ecules of crystallization. The structure determination reveals that protonation has occurred at diagonally opposite amine N atoms, and that the dication features intra-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, a three-dimensional artchitecture...

By means of EPR spectroscopy the behaviour of the vanadocene dichloride (I), Cp(2)VCl(2) (Cp=eta(5)-C(5)H(5)), in various deoxygenated and non-deoxygenated physiological media and therapeutic solution as well as in blood plasma and stabilized human blood was studied. On the basis of measured values of isotropic spectroscopic splitting factor g(iso) and isotropic hyperfine coupling constant A(is...

INTRODUCTION Few studies have prospectively assessed the tools used to measure quality of life, both generic and specific, in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to characterize a population of patients with early RA (less than 12 months after symptom onset at the time of the diagnosis) prospectively followed for the pattern of responses to...

Despite conventional treatment, RA still has many deleterious consequences. From the patients' perspective, these include persistent pain, functional disability, fatigue, and depression modified by health beliefs and underlying psychological problems. Disability is a consequence of pain, active synovitis and joint damage. It is usually assessed by self-reported questionnaire; the Health Assessm...

background granisetron is a first-generation 5-ht3-receptor antagonist that has shown efficacy in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting (ponv). in this randomized double-blind parallel-group clinical trial, we assessed the efficacy of generic granisetron versus kytril®, in the prevention of ponv in patients undergoing general anesthesia for gynaecological surgeries. method one hundred an...
