introduction: cardiac complications, including heart failure, are the most important secondary ones of the thalassemia major disease, which manifests itself in adolescence and early adulthood. appropriate, low cost diagnostic tools available as well as knowing its related factors are the most important components of therapy in these patients, given the importance of these complications, or by e...

in this paper, we study l1 -solutions of the following two-direction poly-scale refinement equationwe prove that the vector space of all l1 -solutions of the above equation is at most one-dimensional andconsists of compactly supported functions of constant sign. we also show that any- l1 solution of the aboveequation is either positive or negative on its support under a special assumption. with...

background: the present study was designed to ascertain serial changes on distal radius radiographic parameters attributable to aging.       methods: in this prospective study, the sample consisted of 120 healthy individuals who were divided into four age groups each containing 15 males and 15 females. in the two below-20-year-old groups, only ulnar variance could be investigated. wrist radiogr...

scientific journals provide a platform for reviewing, publishing and dissemination of the results of new scientific findings and discoveries and cannot be replaced by any other platform. given the important role of scientific journals in dissemination of information, management of such journals takes a high priority. the accurate management of scientific journals takes place only when the diffe...

a parallel algorithm for generating t-ary tree sequences in reverse b-order is presented. the algorithm generates t-ary trees by 0-1 sequences, and each 0-1 sequences is generated in constant average time o(1). the algorithm is executed on a crew sm simd model, and is adaptive and cost-optimal. prior to the discussion of the parallel algorithm a new sequential generation with o(1) average time ...

an interesting case of rare multiple hydatid of parotid, brain and kidney is reported. she is a 35-year-old married woman first referred because of a swelling in the parotid region and later for neurological manifestions. on general physical examination, an abdominal mass was felt in the right hypochondrium. these multiple space-occupying 'lesions in the brain, kidney and parotid proved to be h...

in this paper we consider the second order nonlinear neutral delay partial difference equation $delta_ndelta_mbig(x_{m,n}+a_{m,n}x_{m-k,n-l}big)+ fbig(m,n,x_{m-tau,n-sigma}big)=b_{m,n}, mgeq m_{0},, ngeq n_{0}.$under suitable conditions, by making use of the banach fixed point theorem, we show the existence of uncountably many bounded positive solutions for the above partial difference equation...

objectives:prenatal infections are one of the fundamental causes of early puerperal complications in mothers and neonates. these infections are mostly due to colonized organisms in pregnant woman's genitor-urinary system. the aim of this study was to determine the incidence of streptococcus group b (gbs) colonization in parturient women and the rate of pathogen transmission to the newborn....
