results the mean distances between the crestal bone and the implant shoulder in group 1 were 1.01, 1.44, and 1.93 mm at the implant placement time, and at the 6 and 12-month postoperative intervals, respectively. in group 2, these distances were 1.35, 1.20, and 1.41 mm, respectively. there were no significant differences in the marginal bone resorption between the two groups (p > 0.05). conclus...

Distributed generation (DG) has been widely used in distribution network to reduce the energy losses, improve voltage profile and system reliability, etc.  The location and capacity of DG units can influence on probability of protection mal-operation in distribution networks. In this paper, a novel model for DG planning is proposed to find the optimum DG location and sizing in radial distr...

The atom bond connectivity index of a graph is a new topological index was defined by E. Estrada as ABC(G)  uvE (dG(u) dG(v) 2) / dG(u)dG(v) , where G d ( u ) denotes degree of vertex u. In this paper we present some bounds of this new topological index.

In this paper, simultaneous placement of distributed generation, capacitor bank and protective devices are utilized to improve the efficiency of the distribution network. The objectives of the problem are reduction of active and reactive power losses, improvement of voltage profile and reliability indices and increasing distribution companies’ profit. The combination of firefly algorithm, parti...

We report the synthesis and characterization of a novel NIR fluorescent deoxyglucose analogue, CyNE 2-DG. Experiments in different cell lines showed a preferential uptake of CyNE 2-DG in cancer cells and its effective competition with unlabeled d-glucose. Cell imaging experiments demonstrated the superior cell-permeability of CyNE 2-DG over the NIR standard IRDye 800CW 2-DG, and validated its a...
