Array manufacturers originally designed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays to genotype human DNA at thousands of SNPs across the genome simultaneously. In the decade since their initial development, the platform's applications have expanded to include the detection and characterization of copy number variation--whether somatic, inherited, or de novo--as well as loss-of-heterozygosity i...

introduction: previously, we demonstrated that i.p. injection of aqueous extract prepared from aerial parts of drosera spatulata (droseraceae) can induced remarkable analgesia in both phases of formalin test in rats. because, analgesia induced in acute phase of formalin test mainly mediated by activation of central analgesic mechanisms and also paragigantocellularis (pgi) nucleus is part of bra...

statement of problem: following the increasing use of composites in restoring anterior and posterior teeth, problems due to its technique sensitivity have become a major concern. one of these problems is the possibility of contamination of dentin with saliva, blood and/or gingival fluid in different stages of bonding procedure, even with application of different methods of isolation. however, b...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the microtensile bond strength to sound and caries-affected dentin using single bond and adper prompt-l-pop adhesives. materials and methods: sixteen extracted human molars with carious lesions extended halfway through dentin were ground to expose the caries affected and the surrounding normal dentin. the samples were divided into two groups of e...

there are various methods and models for land evaluation. these methods are classified according to the number of used resources. the best resources capabilities or potentials and land use can be found by analyzing one of the main resources, in the lands close relations to ecologic resources exist. soil has a great potential for introducing the studied region specifications. hence, it challenge...

unity is one of the most important social issues in the holy religion of islam. unity makes possible entanglement from dependencies, success in settling social issues, and firmness in confronting conspiracies and invasions. since islam is a religion of kindness and brotherhood, it invites its followers to engage in being united, which will, however, never be achieved without resolving conflicts...

urokinase might play a role in the formation of kidney stones. this study was done to determine the association between +4065 t/c polymorphism at the 3′-untranslated region of urokinase gene and calcium kidney stones. this case-control study was carried out on 70 cases with a history of calcium kidney stones and 70 controls from the baqiyatallah hospital of tehran in 2013. the study of polymorp...

conclusions lepr q223r polymorphisms may confer a significant risk of nafld and coronary atherosclerosis. the a allele in the k109r polymorphism might be considered an independent risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis in nafld patients. objectives to investigate the association of lepr polymorphisms at q223r and k109r with the risks of nafld and coronary atherosclerosis in the chinese han po...
