background blastocystis is a common protozoan parasite in mammals, birds, amphibians,reptiles, fish, arthropods, and annelids. this parasite has some subtypes, which pathogenicity status of them still remained controversial. some of blastocystis subtypes are potentially pathogenic to human. objectives this study has identified the b. hominis subtypes and their prevalence rates in hamadan. patie...

In the linear regression model, restricted biased estimation as one of important  methods to addressing high variance and the  multicollinearity problems. this paper, we make simulation study some estimators. The mean square error (MME) criteria are used a comparison  among them. According observe that, performance modified unbiased  ridge estimator (RMUR) was proposed by &n...

The Peyrard-Bishop (PB) DNA model is the most representative to investigate dynamics because able answer denaturation processes even though has restricted review that assumes without surrounding interaction. In this study, we of modified PB by considering in Nosé-Hoover thermostat as a bio-fluid with various viscosities. Viscosity variations are reviewed through temperature variations, namely t...

Background and Aims: The contribution genetic and antigenic diversity of H9N2 influenza viruses in evading from immune responses, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) epitopes in hemagglutinin (HA) protein restricted by HLA binding peptides was identified. Materials and Methods: Phylogenetic analyses were carried out for all of full length HA and deduced amino acid sequences of H9N2 viruses available ...

Within the backdrop of legacy reformism, inspired by Cordoba revolt in 1918, trajectories Latin American universities show variations. Both, instabilities region and predominance a university focused on teaching, delayed (decelerate) development research as substantive activity. In 1990s, under influence Washington Consensus, governments restricted funding basis fragmented its operation. Today,...

Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have attracted much attention recently, and have shown to be able to recognize thousands of object categories in natural image databases. Their architecture is somewhat similar to that of the human visual system: both use restricted receptive fields, and a hierarchy of layers which progressively extract more and more abstracted features. Yet it is unkn...

The agro-climatic environments in subtropical islands around Japan were analyzed by using meteorological data (average for 1971–2000). This study found that the horizontal distribution of monthly mean temperatures in both the subtropical islands and Japan’s main islands can be expressed accurately as a function of latitude for all seasons. These relationships cannot be applied to the monthly me...

The present paper investigates the origins of variations in public sector wages using an interdisciplinary approach drawing from stratification and organizational theory. It is suggested here that organizational antecedents (resources and outputs) and labor market distinctions (periphery, semi-urbanized and urbanized localities) produce variations in individual level earnings controlling for va...

BACKGROUND Depressed mood is a major concern in the elderly, with consequences for morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have demonstrated that genetic factors in depression and subsyndromal depressive symptoms are no less important in the elderly than during other life stages. Variations in genes included in the serotonin system have been suggested as risk factors for various psychiatric d...

despite controversy, the contingent valuation method (cvm) is widely used for non-market valuation. among elicitation methods of cvm, the dichotomous choice (dc) has been paid attention. there are two types of dc methods: single-bounded dc (sbdc) and double-bounded dc (dbdc). dbdc is more efficient than sbdc. many of cvm studies in iran used dbdc but data analyses were done by logit model; that...
