intravenous glucocorucoid pulse therapy is a common treatment for immunologically origin diseases but it can not be considered a completely bening treatment.the effects of long term administration of glucocorticoids on calcium and phosphorus metabolism are week known ,but is less in known about the effect of pluse therapy.the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of methylpredn...

introduction: previous studies have been shown that low frequency stimulation (lfs) has an inhibitory effect on kindling acquisition. however, the mechanism of this effect has not been completely determined. in the present study, the effect of lfs of the perforant path on seizures induced by rapid perforant path kindling was investigated. methods: animals were kindled by electrical stimulation ...

in this study the effect of input parameters of the edm process (pulse on-time, duty cycle and tool polarity), on the material removal rate (mrr), tool wear ratio (twr) and maximum surface roughness (rmax) in the machining aisi h13 tool steel has been studied. this study shows that increasing the duty cycle in the two conditions of tool polarity, material removal rate and the maximum surface ro...

The main objective of this paper is to present a wavelet-based procedure to characterize principle features of a special class of motions called pulse-like ground motions. Initially, continues wavelet transform (CWT) which has been known as a powerful technique both in earthquake engineering and seismology field is applied easily in automated detecting of strong pulse of earthquakes. In this pr...

Zinc-Nickel electrodeposits have been widely adopted for surface treatment of automobile steel sheet for high corrosion resistance. In this work the effect of pulse parameters on the Zn-Ni alloy electrodeposits was investigated. The hardness, thickness, corrosion resistance and composition of deposits thus produced were investigated. The surface topography of the deposits was also observed in S...

Aims: The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of passive movements on hemodynamic parameters, including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, pulse, and pulse pressure of patients under ventilation. Materials & Method: In this controlled clinical trial, 64 patients under ventilation in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad University of ...

the micro wire electrical discharge machining (micro wire-edm) process is a modern machining process with various applications in manufacturing micro-parts. the recast layer remaining on the machined surfaces is an inevitable complication of this process. this layer can subsequently affect the machined parts performance. to optimize the recast layer in the micro wire-edm of the molybdenum micro...
