in order to evaluate the effects of sugar beet sowing date, planting density and cultivar on solar radiation interception, the present study was conducted in kamal-abad agricultural research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi) in 2005 and 2006. the experiment arranged was in split-split plots based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications. the sowing date, plan...

In a Perspective accompanying Abad-Franch and colleagues, Lorenz von Seidlein, Alexander Kekulé, and Daniel Strickman discuss the importance of developing effective strategies to minimize mosquito-borne transmission of human diseases.

BACKGROUND Since Pars Abad district had been known as a focus of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Ardabil Province but the prevalence of the disease in nomadic tribes has not been determined, thus, this study was conducted. METHODS This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on children up to 12yr old of nomadic tribes from Pars Abad County, Ardabil Province, Iran in 2015. For each ind...

In the acute setting, the majority of patients affected by uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD) can be managed with medical therapy. In these patients, inhospital outcome is generally acceptable, with mortality rates of 1-10% (1,2). However, long-term outcomes in this group is less positive, with a mortality rates reported as 2025% within 3 years. Predictors of long-term complica...

We show that there may be a Milliken-Taylor ultrafilter with infinitely many near coherence classes of ultrafilters in its projection to ω, answering a question by López-Abad. We show that k-coloured Milliken-Taylor ultrafilters have at least k + 1 near coherence classes of ultrafilters in its projection to ω. We show that the Mathias forcing with a Milliken-Taylor ultrafilter destroys all Mill...

Alzheimer׳s disease (AD) is one of the most common dementias showing slow progressive cognitive decline. Progression of intracerebral accumulation of beta amyloid (Aβ) peptides by the action of amyloid binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD), a mitochondrial enzyme and β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) and the degradation of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) the main pathologica...

Neurotoxicity of beta-amyloid peptide (A beta) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is usually thought to arise from the nonspecific effects of high concentrations of A beta on vulnerable neurons, resulting in membrane destabilization and increasing intracellular calcium concentration. This review advances the hypothesis that at early stages of AD, when A beta is present in lower amounts, its ability to...
