background despite the advances in the treatment of chronic hepatitis b virus (hbv) infection, liver transplantation (lt) remains the only hope for many patients with end-stage liver diseases resulting from hbv. objectives the aim of this study was to investigate the rate of hbv recurrence in cases that had undergone lt due to the hbv related liver cirrhosis. patients and methods forty-nine pat...

In this work we provide low rank estimations for coordinate sequences of linear recurrent sequences (LRS) of maximal period (MP) over Galois ring R = GR(pn, r), p ≥ 5, r ≥ 2, with numbers s such that s = kr + 2, k ∈ N0.

ôbjective: presently, the issue of attempted suicide now poses one of the major challenges facing the health-care providers in ïran and other countries. âlthough in previous years, the number of people entering to hospital emergency departments after deliberately taking overdoses or injuring themselves has been steadily increased in ïran, however, there is less attention to the issue of suicide...

We derive recurrence relations between phase space expressions in different dimensions by confining some of the coordinates to tori or spheres of radius R and taking the limit as R → ∞. These relations take the form of mass integrals, associated with extraneous momenta (relative to the lower dimension), and produce the result in the higher dimension.

the glandular odontogenic cyst (goc) is a rare lesion with odontogenic origin. it shows a propensity for recurrence revealed in 30% of all case. this investigation reports a case of recurrent goc in a 35-year-old female in the anterior region of the maxilla, which is uncommon and discusses about ihc finding, surgical methods, and differential diagnosis. under general anesthesia, peripheral bone...

introduction: this study was aimed to asses the rate of recurrence after the first unprovoked seizure in children. methods and materials: in a prospective study, we recruited 145 children who presented with primary unprovoked seizure and were followed for at least 12 months after the first seizure. results: seventy five children (51.7%) experienced subsequent seizures. the cumulative risk of se...

introduction: pyogenic granuloma (pg) is a prevalent inflammatory hyperplasia of skin and oral mucosa which is often caused by constant low-grade local irritation, traumatic injury or hormonal factors. in many cases, gingival irritation and inflammation due to poor oral hygiene are precipitating factors. oral pg occurs predominantly on the gingiva, but it is also encountered on the lips, tongue...

background :pigmented villonodularsynovitis (pvns) is characterized by the presence of inflammation and hemosiderin deposition in the synovium. two forms of pvns distinguished in the literature are diffused and localized involvements. there are controversies in the literature about the surgical management of pvns. we report our experience in the management of knee pvns at a mean follow-up of 4 ...

background: distinction between radiation necrosis and recurrence of intraparenchymal tumors is necessary to select the appropriate treatment, but it is often difficult based on imaging features alone. we developed an algorithm for analyzing magnetic resonance spectroscopy (mrs) findings and studied its accuracy in differentiation between radiation necrosis and tumor recurrence. m e t hod s :  ...
