Four containerized deciduous ornamental shrubs [deutzia (Deutzia gracilis L.), silverleaf dogwood (Cornus nlba 'Elegantissima'), red-osier dogwood (Cornus sericea L.), and ninebark (Physocarpirs optilifolius L.)] were grown during each of two separate growing seasons using 12 different immature (nonaged) composts as media (year one, 12 weeks from start of windrowing; year two, 16-weeks) and als...

the current experiment was carried out to investigate the possible effects of replacing alfalfa by dried de-oiled savory (satureja khuzistanica; dds) at the levels of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 percent in finishing diets of mehraban lambs on kinetics of gas production in vitro. the experimental diets contained 20% alfalfa and 80% of concentrate on dry matter basis. replacing alfalfa by dds had no si...

Stroke accounts for approximately 12% of maternal deaths and contributes to significant fetal morbidity and mortality (2). Pregnant women develop stroke more frequently than non-pregnant women (incidence varies between 11 and 34 per 100 000 deliveries). 10 percent of pregnancy-associated strokes occur in the antepartum period, 40 percent around delivery and 50 percent postpartum (3).

recently, application of sa has increased to improve plants resistance to stresses such as drought. hence, to investigate sa effects on morphophysiological characteristics of fennel(foeniculum vulgare mill.) under drought stress, a split plot experiment based on latin square design with three replications was carried out at research farm of shahid bahonar university of kerman in 2012. three lev...

A motor alimentary conditioned reflex was elaborated in hippocampectomized and intact albino rats. Food reinforcement followed 100 percent, 50 percent, 33 percent or 25 percent of conditional stimulus presentations (click from a rotating food box). No differences were found in the rate of conditioned alimentary reflex elaboration between the hippocampectomized and control rats at 100 percent an...

Data on 10 patients with angina pectoris and fatal cardiac arrest during cardiac catheterization were analyzed to determine the circumstances of death and the severity and distribution of the coronary arterial narrowing. Nine patients died during attempted coronary angiography, and the remaining patient during right-sided cardiac catheterization. At least three of four major epicardial coronary...
