conclusions the analytical sensitivity of lamp and pcr methods, using the designed primers, was 8 times more than any other reported methods. the designed methods are specific and sensitive for detection of h. pylori in different clinical and environmental samples. results the detection limits of the lamp and pcr assay were similar and were 10 fg of pure dna of h. pylori, which is equal to 6 co...

Objective: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most common pathogenic bacteria in the stomach. The aim of the current study was to explore the effect of oral garlic administration on bacterial urease activity inside the stomach and its contribution to the treatment of H. pylori infection.   Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial, 15 patients were studied quantitatively with Urease Bre...

the purpose of this study was to determine the intensity influence of perform one set half squat on vertical jump performance and muscle electrical activity in adolescent athletes. the subjects were 12 adolescent boys athletes. the subjects performed one set of dynamic half-squat using low and high intensities (li= low intensity with 40% 1rm, hi= high intensity with 80% 1rm), and a control (c) ...

the efficacious effects of pulsed electromagnetic field (pemf) under the certain field parameters like frequency and the field intensity have been reported for various tissue and molecules. since collagen is found abundantly in most tissue structures, this research was designed to further investigate the effects of extremely low frequency (elf) pemf on the synthesis of the epidermal collagen. t...

The role of frameworks in information systems has recently received a great deal of critical attention. One prominent indictment, which has been directed at even commonly accepted frameworks, is that they lack empirical support, and in fact are not constructed in operational terminology. This article reports the results of an experimental lab study using MBA students as subjects to investigate ...

To solve problems of compliance, an institutional trigger mechanism is often used. This paper develops a model of two trigger mechanisms and derives conditions where the two institutions may complement one another to improve utility and compliance. When the conditions for optimality do not hold, small changes in institutional structure may create lumpy changes in behavior. Also, the paper explo...

Dred Scott, without doubt, is the most controversial case in the history of the United States Supreme Court. Unlike the controversies that surround other decisions of the Court, the controversy surrounding Dred Scott does not turn on if the outcome or Chief Justice Taney’s analysis was wrong, but rather on why the outcome and Chief Justice Taney’s analysis were wrong. This article focuses on th...
