nurses are often faced with serious situations that require high levels of legal and ethical knowledge, and should therefore be sensitive to the moral issues in their profession in the decision making process. some studies have investigated nurses’ moral self-concept as an effective factor in moral sensitivity, but there is not sufficient evidence to support this. the purpose of this study was ...

background: metronidazole, a 5-nitroimidazole derivative, is the main antitrich­omonal agent of  choice   for   treatment  of t richomoniasis . since 1962, s ome cases of treatment failure with metronidazole have been reported and recently drug re­sistance is now on the rise in the world. this study was aimed to determine current susceptibility of iranian isolates of trichomonas vaginalis to me...

conclusions due to the variable nature of antibiotic susceptibility patterns and etiological agents of septicemia, continual assessment of the most frequent pathogens associated with bloodstream infections and detection of their sensitivity patterns to locally available antibiotics seem to be reasonable measures. results from a total of 491 blood cultures, 74 (15.1%) samples were detected as po...

most of data in multi-attribute decision making (madm) problems are changeable rather than constant and stable. therefore, sensitivity analysis after problem solving can effectively contribute to making accurate decisions. in this paper, we offer a new method for sensitivity analysis in multi-attribute decision making problems in which if the weights of one attribute changes, then we can deter...

runoff estimation resulted from precipitation is the basis of more study in various develop and exploit design from water resource, then its measure and calculation due to environmental bottlenecks, always have a plenty problem. as a result of the importance of output runoff estimation and flood volume in watershed for the sake of country integrated watershed management in this study tried to 9...

sensitivity analysis to determine variations in evapotranspiration is much important considering a known variation in one of climatic variables. in this study, sensitivity of evapotranspiration from penmann-mantith, penmann-kimberly (1996), penman-kimberly (1972) and penmann (1984)  and hargrivs (1985) approaches to three climatic variations (maximum temperature, wind speed, solar radiation) wa...
