background focused assessment with sonography for trauma (fast) is a precise, non-invasive, and low cost method to assess free abdominal fluid in trauma patients. objective this study assessed the relationship between free intra-abdominal fluid and organ injury in blunt abdominal trauma and designed a scoring system based on fast. patients and methods a total of 200 patients with blunt abdomina...

anomaly detection (ad) has recently become an important application of target detection in hyperspectral images. the reed-xialoi (rx) is the most widely used ad algorithm that suffers from “small sample size” problem. the best solution for this problem is to use dimensionality reduction (dr) techniques as a pre-processing step for rx detector. using this method not only improves the detection p...

the aim of this study was to analyse polar lipids of candida species isolated from ahwaz (iran) by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (fab ms). nine isolates of candida sp. were identified by growth at 45°c, production of chlamydoconidia on cornmeal agar, colonial colour on chromagar candida, germ tube production and id 32c kits. then polar lipids were extracted from freeze-dried cultures ...

due to its simplicity radix-2 is a popular algorithm to implement fast fourier transform. radix - 2 p algorithms have the same order of computational complexity as higher radices algorithms, but still retain the simplicity of radix-2 . by defining a new concept, twiddle factor template , in this paper we propose a method for exact calculation of multiplicative complexity for radix-2 p algorithm...

conclusions in conclusion, dietary counseling of patients on hd is mandatory. interventions that consider the socio-economic situation allow delivering important messages on foods with the least amount of p and adequate protein content, and they may be a successful strategy in targeting patients at a higher risk of hyperphosphoremia. results results showed serum p level was reduced in patients ...

objective(s): previous studies showed that skeletal muscle microcirculation was reduced in chronic heart failure. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of endurance training on capillary and arteriolar density of fast and slow twitch muscles in rats with chronic heart failure. materials and methods: four weeks after surgeries (left anterior descending (lad) artery occlusion), chr...

nowadays with increasing use of numerous nonlinear loads, voltage and current harmonics in power systems are one of the most important problems power engineers encounter. many of these nonlinear loads, because of their dynamic natures, inject time-varying harmonics into power system. common techniques applied for harmonics measurement and assessment such as fft have significant errors in presen...
