Natasha Shur, MD, Shelly Gunn MD, PhD, Lloyd Feit, MD, Albert K. Oh, MD, Yvette Yatchmink, MD, PhD, and Dianne Abuelo, MD  introdUCtion Children with developmental delay and dysmorphic features can present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. One of the newer genetic technologies, known as chromosomal microarray, or array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) has revolutionized our diagno...

Quantum circuits currently constitute a dominant model for quantum computation [14]. Our work addresses the problem of constructing quantum circuits to implement an arbitrary given quantum computation, in the special case of two qubits. We pursue circuits without ancilla qubits and as small a number of elementary quantum gates [1, 15] as possible. Our lower bound for worst-case optimal two-qubi...

OBJECTIVE To determine in vitro antibacterial activity of commercially available skin, wound, and skin/wound cleansers at cell-safe (nontoxic) concentrations. DESIGN Saline and 19 other commercial wound and skin cleansers were evaluated for cytotoxic effects on mouse dermal fibroblasts. Cells were exposed to serial 10-fold dilutions of each cleanser until treatment-induced cytotoxicity was co...

One of the ways to describe dynamical characteristics of the system is the s-transfer function, which belongs to the class of the so-called external descriptions and from the mathematical point of view it represents a rational function. Decomposition into the partial fractions (sum of exponential functions in the time domain) is based on the knowledge of the roots of the polynomial defined by t...

during the twentieth century, with growing urbanization and machinical transportation development, and migration people to cites, many different natural attractive places come to distort by this pollution and in another way this kind of development without notice to the natural factors limitation, made lots of programs. the goles of this research recognite geomorphologic limitation, in physical...
