The change in phase factor of the wavefunction does not affect the absolute value of the matrix element, but does change the phase factor of the off-diagonal matrix element. This phase dependence causes a serious confusion in the sign of some parameters in the molecular Hamiltonian, which appear only in the off-diagonal matrix element; for example, the sign of the /-type doubling constant q of ...

introdouction: age estimation is an important issue in forensics, particularly for treatment planning and determining patients’ rights. radiographic evaluation of the third molar developmental stage is a significant criterion for age estimation. the pattern of tooth development is largely heritable and varies from race to race. the objective of this study was to radiographically examine and com...

Dear Alice, I have been taking OTC cough/cold/flu preps for about a week. These all contain acetaminophen with the subsequent warnings against using if one imbibes due to possible liver damage. Is there a period of time I should wait (I'm better now) after I stop using the OTCs before I can resume enjoying my "more than 3 alcoholic beverages" per day to allow the acetaminophen to metabolize? Re...

In this paper, we examine the emphatic focus doubling construction in American Sign Language (ASL) and Brazilian Sign Language (Libras), in which one element of the sentence appears in its base-generated position within the sentence and one copy appears in sentence-final position. We review the existing focus doubling data in the literature, as well as a previous syntactic analysis of the const...

Background: Developmental and behavioral disorders are the most prevalent problems in children after infection and trauma. Growth and development are influenced by genetic, social and environmental factors that incept of the early life of the fetal and neonatal periods. Due to the importance of the development in children, this study was conducted to determine the relationship between growth in...

nearly just a decade ago, olive leaf moth, palpita unionalis, was identified as an exotic pest from an olive grove in roodbar, iran. in order to plan an ipm programme regarding olive, a series of laboratory and field studies were carried out during 2001-2003 in qazvin province. to study the emergence time, number of generations, feeding behaviour and developmental periods at field, five trees (...

Background: Hypernatremia might lead to neurological and developmental disabilities. This study aimed to determine the frequency, risk factors, and one-year neurological prognosis of hypernatremia in newborns. The findings of the present study may assist the prevention of hypernatremia mortality and complications.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on all neonates admitted to the ...

Numerous developmental changes occur across levels of personal organization (eg, changes related to puberty, brain and cognitive-affective structures and functions, and family and peer relationships) in the age period of 10 to 15 years. Furthermore, the onset and escalation of alcohol use commonly occur during this period. This article uses both animal and human studies to characterize these mu...
