background: malnutrition is of importance factors that cause the increasing of hospitalization duration and effects on the development of main diseases. therefore, we are going to assess the nutritional indices among icu impatients. methods: height, weight, received necessary energy for subjects were measured. also circumference of mid-arm and body temperature was measured twice within a week i...

DOI: 10.5812/atr.7245 Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: The role of trauma in the modern society has a vital importance and significance role that resorting to any facilities and strategies to handle the dilemma seems worthful for all researchers in this s...

drought stress due to water deficit and terminal temperatures is a serious problem in agriculture, and it is one of the most important factors contributing to crop yield loss. to evaluate drought tolerance of barley, 12 advanced barley genotypes were studied in two rainfed and irrigated conditions (in a subtropical region, gachsaran) in 2006-2007 in a rcb design with three replications. results...

AIMS To examine derived indices of beta cell function, peripheral insulin sensitivity, and the pancreatic response to intravenous glucose loading in children with a previous history of transient neonatal diabetes currently in remission, repeated after a period of two or more years. METHODS The standard intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) was used to measure the first phase insulin resp...

Background: Studies have demonstrated that sickle cell trait can be found in an asymptomatic healthy carrier with normal complete blood count (CBC) and red blood cell (RBC) indices. According to Iranian Ministry of Health bulletin instructions, prenuptial Thalassemia Screening Program (TSP) primarily depends on RBC indices which are measured through a routine CBC. Only when these levels are bel...

the effect of drought on the seed yield and some associated characteristics of common been under normal and drought stress conditions and determination of durable genotypes to drought were studied by planting 32 genotypes in two separate augmented designs in normal and stress conditions. these genotypes were evaluated in randomized complete block design with 3 replications in the field of facul...

Drought is a major environmental disaster in many parts of the world. Knowledge about the timing, severity and extentof drought can aid planning and decision-making. Drought indices derived from in-situ meteorological data have coarsespatial and temporal resolutions, thus, obtaining a real-time drought condition over a large area is difficult. This studyused advanced very high resolution radiom...

The aim of the study was to determine the optic disc morphometric parameters in high-tension and normaltension glaucoma by confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and correlate the results with the visual field indices. One hundred and seventy-one glaucomatous patients were recruited for the study. For each patient, one eye was randomly chosen. Normaland high-tension glaucomatous patients were c...

BACKGROUND One of the main methods for evaluation of fetal well-being is analysis of Doppler flow velocity waveform of fetal vessels. Evaluation of Doppler wave of the middle cerebral artery can predict most of the at-risk fetuses in high-risk pregnancies. In this study, we tried to determine the normal ranges and their trends during pregnancy of Doppler flow velocity indices (resistive index, ...
