Stroke, one of the most debilitating cerebrovascular and nuerological diseases, is a serious life-threatening condition and a leading cause of long-term adult disability and brain damage, either directly or by secondary complications. Most effective treatments for stroke are time dependent such as the only FDA-approved therapy, reperfusion with tissue-type plasminogen activator; thus, improving...

سابقه و هدف: گیاه­ پالایی مقرون­ به­ صرفه سازگار با محیط زیست است که در آن گیاه از توانایی‌‌های طبیعی خود برای بازیابی استفاده ‌‌می‌‌‌کند. گیاهان مورد باید توانایی انباشت مقادیر زیادی آلاینده‌‌های فلزی را بدون ایجاد سمیت آنها داشته باشند. امروزه افزایش جمعیت جهان به دنبال توسعه صنایع کارخانه‌‌ها، بر میزان پساب‌‌های وارده غالبا حاوی فلزات سنگین مختلف ‌‌می‌‌‌باشند، افزوده ‌‌می‌‌‌شود. تاثیرات مخرب...

Acute ischemic stroke is a common and serious neurological disease. Oxygen therapy has been shown to increase oxygen supply to ischemic tissues and improve outcomes after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. Normobaric hyperoxia (NBO), an easily applicable and non-invasive method, shows protective effects on acute ischemic stroke animals and patients in pilot studies. However, many critical scientifi...

The structure of the niobium oxide on alumina surface was investigated for low loading (5 wt.-%) and high loading (19 wt.-%) samples. The TPD profile of water molecules showed the appearance of water adsorption sites other than those on alumina. The XANES and EXAFS spectra clearly showed that niobic acid-like species are formed on the surface of 19 wt.-% NbO,/Al,O,. The XANES spectra of 5 wt.-%...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the natural history of the high signal intensities shown on long TR sequences-neurofibromatosis type 1 bright objects (NBO)-in children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). We have paid particular attention to the development of tumors in these areas of abnormality. METHODS During a 12-month period in 1992 to 1993, 46 children with clini...

The research work covers the query optimization concept in parallel distributed environment. The queries considered are select-project-join (SPJ) queries with large databases. The main query operation considered for research is JOIN operation of the query. For fast execution of a complex query, JOIN operation time needs to be minimized. Different JOIN operation algorithms such as Network Byte O...
