conclusions the mean heart rate was higher in participants who were overweight than those with normal weight. results the mean and standard deviation of the heart rate in the hot climatic condition and moderate exercise were 103.84 (3.34) for normal weight subjects and 108.67 (3.27) for overweight subjects. the mean and standard deviation of the heart rate in a very hot climatic condition and l...

One of the bio-sensing mechanisms is mechanical. Rather than measuring shift in resonance frequency, we adopt to measure the change in spring constant due to adsorption, as one of the fundamental sensing mechanism. This study explains  determination of spring constant of a surface functionalized micro machined micro cantilever, which resonates in a trapezoidal cavity-on Silicon wafer, with the ...

Thyroglossal duct cyst is a well-known congenital entity, and its embryonic development and clinical presentation are well understood. Very little can be added to the classic material found in the world literature. Rare cases of unusual clinical presentation have also been reported. Our case of endolaryngeal thyroglossal duct cyst is reported because of its unique endolaryngeal presentation...

obesity is one of the most prevalent diet-related problems and increases the risk for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, atherosclerosis and dyslipidemia. cardio vascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in spinal cord injury (sci) patients. increased fat mass has also been identified as an important risk factor in chronic sci and weight management is recommended as a key cardi...

conclusion the cv value correlated more closely with low lvef and more accurately indicated an enlarged heart than ca or ctr. this may be due to the fact that an anteroposterior measurement of heart size is included in the former but not the latter two measurements. these study results may help quantify left heart enlargement with greater accuracy than may be obtained from standard cxr. backgro...

objective: excessive weight in children is a major public health concern. the intake of refined carbohydrates, especially sugars and the prevalence of dental caries are well documented in the literature. the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between dental caries and bmi in elementary school children. materials and methods: the sampling technique used in the present stud...
