rohrer's ponderal index in newborns (birth weight * 100/height3) has been used as an indicator of fetal growth status, especially to assess asymmetrical intrauterine growth retardation. low ponderal index or disproportionate intrauterine growth retardation has higher neonatal morbidity and there are some specific guidelines in intrauterine growth retarded infants to control some of their p...

background: intrauterine growth retardation (iugr) contributes significantly to fetal morbidity and mortality, but its etiology is unknown in most cases. objective: the aim of this study was to examine the association between inherited thrombophilia and iugr. materials and methods: a case-control study was performed in a tertiary referral center (afzalipour hospital) over 2-years period (2010-2...

sjogren-larsson syndrome (sls) is an inherited autosomal recessive neurocutaneous disorder with congenital ichthyosis, spastic diplegia or quadriplegia and mental retardation. we report a case of sjogren-larsson syndrome with clinical profile (mental retardation, ichthyosis, spastic diplegia) and mri findings such as seen in multiple sclerosis (ms). so this rare syndrome can be another differen...

Abstract: This study is carried out to describe the behaviour of vehicles flow on the road, in the presence of blocking effects. A non-linear three dimensional system of ordinary differential equations is used to describe vehicles flow on the road. The study classify total vehicles population on the road into three compartments as Free – Slow – Released vehicles. The formulated model is well-po...

PURPOSE To evaluate whether erroneous compensation for anterior segment retardation can be estimated and used to correct peripapillary (PP) retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) retardation measurements. METHODS Retardation measurements (for the 780-nm wavelength), given as RNFL thickness by the scanning laser polarimeter, were obtained at the macula and PP retina in 45 eyes of 45 normal subjects ...

title. A book on molecular pharmacology should be concerned primarily with drug-receptor interactions in terms of small molecule-biopolymer interactions. Yet, this text discusses neither protein structure nor nucleic acid structure and minimizes discussions of drug induced conformational changes. In other words, this volume is a good textbook of nonmolecular pharmacology. In the introduction th...
