This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of different levels of garlic (Allium sativum) on growth survival and nutritional characteristics of goldfish (Carassius auratus). For this purpose, 180 goldfish with an average initial weight of 1.18± 0.08 g were introduced randomly into 12 aquaria (50×30×40 cm) at 4 groups. After one week feeding on basal diet, the treatments were fed on exper...

Application of data mining methods as a decision support system has a great benefit to predict survival of new patients. It also has a great potential for health researchers to investigate the relationship between risk factors and cancer survival. But due to the imbalanced nature of datasets associated with breast cancer survival, the accuracy of survival prognosis models is a challenging issue...

this study aimed to evaluate the effects of prebiotic immunoster on growth and nutrition performance, survival rate and body composition and intestine bacterial flora of common carp (cyprinus carpio) fingerlings. 15 fish with initial weight 12 + 1 g distributed in 12 tanks and fed with different dietary levels of prebiotic (0.5, 1.5, 2.5 g/kg diet) for 60 days. at the end of experimental period...

recently, reports have shown that gastric cancer has high abundance in iran and is at the second level in men, and fourth in total. this study aimed to determine the 5-year survival of gastric cancer patients and to investigate factors affecting the performance, based on tnm-7 staging system. in this study, we investigated 760 patients with gastric cancer since the beginning of 1993 to the end ...

Microfluidic continuous cell separation based on hydrodynamic interaction in a microfluidic channel has attracted attention because of its robustness, high throughput and cell viability. This paper systematically gives an overview on recent advances in hydrodynamic particle and cell separation in microfluidic devices. It presents the basic ideas and fluid mechanics for the hydrodynamic interact...

conclusions parametric models may provide complementary data for clinicians and researchers about how risks vary over time. the weibull model seemed to show the best fit among the parametric models of the survival of hemodialysis patients. results the results of a multivariate analysis of the variables in the parametric models showed that the mean serum albumin and the clinic attended were the ...
