The purpose of the study was to examine age-related differences in electromyographic (EMG) responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) during functional isometric contractions in left and right hands. EMG responses were recorded from the first dorsal interosseus muscle following TMS in 10 young (26.6 +/- 1.3 yr) and 10 old (67.6 +/- 2.3 yr) right-handed subjects. Muscle evoked potentia...

It is well known that finding out the genetic information of any organism helps in understanding how performs its metabolism, and knowing extent effect gene modification affects performance these functions. Many techniques have been used to editing genome parasites such as Zinc fingers Transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), But development clustered regularly interspaced shor...

In this paper, we study fuzzy substructures in connection withHv-structures. The original idea comes from geometry, especially from thetwo dimensional Euclidean vector space. Using parameters, we obtain a largenumber of hyperstructures of the group-like or ring-like types. We connect,also, the mentioned hyperstructures with the theta-operations to obtain morestrict hyperstructures, as Hv-groups...

Biliary cannulation is unsuccessful in 0.9–4.4% accessible papilla, even when an experienced endoscopist has performed the procedure.1, 2 The precut technique 0.7% cases and improves success rate biliary canulation.3 European guideline recommends needle-knife fistulotomy (NKF) several techniques.4 NKF can be sometimes challenging, if route estimation missed, incis...

purpose: to determine the sensitivity and specificity of confocal scan in the diagnosis of fungal and acanthamoeba keratitis based on the results of corneal and/or contact lens case smear and culture. method: confocal scan and corneal and/or contact lens case smear and culture were performed in all patients with a clinical diagnosis of infectious keratitis who were referred to labbafinejad medi...

Controlling the ratio of 2,2'-bpy to benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid produces two interesting complexes, namely [Co(2,2'-bpy)₃]·(SO₄)·8.5H₂O (1) and [Cu₂(BTCA) (2,2'-bpy)₄] (OH)·(2,2'-bpy)₀.₅·14H₂O (2) (H₃BTCA = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid, 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). We report the structural evidence in the solid state of discrete lamellar water cluster conformations. These units are fo...

In this study, a novel and very simple finite element procedure is presented for free vibration and buckling analysis of slim beam-like structures damaged by edge cracks. A cracked region of a beam is modeled using a very short element with reduced second moment of area (I). For computing reduced I in a cracked region, the elementary theory of bending of beams and local flexibility approach are...
