INTRODUCTION HTLV-I Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a progressive Myelopathy that mainly involves the corticospinal tract. Despite pronounced involvement of the lower limbs, patients also have abnormalities in their upper limbs. So, we studied somatosensory-evoked potentials (SSEPs) of the median nerve in HAM/TSP patients to determine the extent of the involvemen...

We present new observations of 470 stars using the Fibre Large Array Multi-Element Spectrograph (FLAMES) instrument in fields centered on the clusters NGC 330 and NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), and NGC 2004 and the N11 region in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). A further 14 stars were observed in the N11 and NGC 330 fields using the Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph (UV...

this study compared the effects of neurofeedback and physical practices on performance and retention of dart throwing skill. 24 subjects were selected by convenience sampling method from female physical education students of urmia university who were all right-handed with no history of neurofeedback training and dart throwing. they were divided to three groups: physical practice, neurofeedback ...

Abstract We derive the entire dust extinction (AV) map for Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) estimated from color excess at near-infrared wavelengths. Using percentile method we recently adopted to evaluate AV distribution along line of sight, three-dimensional (3D) maps three massive star-forming regions N44, N79, and N11 based on IRSF/SIRIUS point source catalog. The 3D are compared with hydrogen ...

The researches have shown that mental practice has the effective role in aquisition of motor skills. On the other hand in orthopaedic rehabilitation, balance exercise is used effectively to improve proprioception impairment that resulting from joint injuries. Little work has been done to evaluate and compare the effects of mental (M), Physical (P), and mental - physical (MP) practice on standin...
