in order to determine the best form factor formula for loblolly pine (pinus taeda l.) plantations in talesh (western guilan province-iran), a number of 110 trees were selected based on their distribution in diameter classes, from 12 to 34 cm (in a two- cm diameter interval). first, several quantitative factors including diameter at breast height, diameter at 0.65 m of height, and diameter at st...

Differences in arch height may have a certain impact on lower extremity muscle strength and physical performance. However, there is little evidence from investigation of the possible correlation of arch height with ankle muscle strength and physical performance measures. Sixty-seven participants took part in this study. Arch height index (AHI) was assessed and categorized using a 3-dimension fo...

Background: The purpose of this study was to assess mandibular ramus height and to assess the relationship of ramus height with various craniofacial and dental measurements in a sample of Iraqi adults with skeletal and dental Class I. Materials and method: The sample consisted of 95 Iraqi adults (54 females and 41 males) having normal occlusion and Class I skeletal pattern aged between 18 and 3...

in the transformation semigroup (x, s) we introduce the height of a closed nonempty invariant subset of x, define the transformed dimension of nonempty subset s of x and obtain some results and relations.

Vertical growth of plants is a dynamic process that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors and has a pronounced effect on overall plant architecture and biomass composition. We have performed six controlled growth trials of an interspecific Setaria italica x Setaria viridis recombinant inbred line population to assess how the genetic architecture of plant height is influenced by dev...

Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), an important test to assess overall lung function, was determined in 84 male adolescent subjects, out of which there were 46 and 38 nonswimmers (NS). Their ages varied between 9 to 15 years. It was observed that a significant spurt in PEFR value occurs in S at the age of 12 years. A similar spurt in growth (height & weight) in S, not so apparent in NS, was also...

OBJECTIVE To assess radiological outcome of management of calcaneal fractures. METHODS The retrospective study was conducted at Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, and comprised data of calcaneal fractures managed between February , 2008 and February, 2014 Cases were identified through medical records, and X-rays were reviewed through digital radiology archive. Bohler\'s angle, Gissane\'s ...

We developed allometric equations to predict whole-tree leaf area (A(l)), leaf biomass (M(l)) and leaf area to sapwood area ratio (A(l):A(s)) in five rain forest tree species of Costa Rica: Pentaclethra macroloba (Willd.) Kuntze (Fabaceae/Mim), Carapa guianensis Aubl. (Meliaceae), Vochysia ferru-gi-nea Mart. (Vochysiaceae), Virola koshnii Warb. (Myristicaceae) and Tetragastris panamensis (Engl....
