Optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) provides another dimension to multiple access systems, in which each user is assigned a unique code. This allows each subscriber to simultaneously access the medium without any contention. However, simultaneous access of multiple users introduces multiple access interference (MAI) which primarily deteriorates the performance of OCDMA systems. This p...

A variation of the reduction-based approach to spatiotemporal interpolation (STI), in which time is treated independently from the spatial dimensions, is proposed in this paper. We reviewed and compared three widely-used spatial interpolation techniques: ordinary kriging, inverse distance weighting and the triangular irregular network. We also proposed a new distribution-based distance weightin...

Background: Although advances in cancer therapy continue to develop, the overall survival rate is poor for some cancer cases. The search for a new adjuvant strategy is the focus of cancer treatment. There is some evidence suggesting a change in the mechanism of cell function by a change in the content of deuterium in the medium. So, the aim of this study was to investigate the ...

هدف از این مطالعه بررسی اثر آب تهی شده دوتریم (DDW) در غلظت­های مشخص بر روی سلول­های 29HT- و 480SW- بود. رده­های سلولی محیط RPMI حاوی مختلف DDW به مدت 24، 48 72 ساعت کشت داده شدند سپس درصد بقای روش سنجش سمیت مبتنی برMTT تعیین شد. یافته­ها نقش توأم کاهش افزایش زمان تیمار را مهار رشد اثبات رساند. کم­ترین میزان برای طی با غلظت ppm 30 ترتیب 23% 37% دست آمد. جهت اثرات جانبی دوتریم، طبیعی 12C2C نیز ت...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and malignant gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors. Temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy plus radiation therapy (RT), admi-mistered after debulking surgery, increased median survival time (MST) from 12.1 months with RT alone merely to 14.6 months, respectively. In this study, actions of deuterium-depleted water (DDW) on GBM patients who also received convent...

OBJECTIVE The prevalence of signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is the highest among women of reproductive age. Estrogens are the major contributor to the regulation of bone growth and development. They also influence peripheral and central mechanism of pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) interna...
