Different symptoms in Climacteric period, includes hot flash. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is common therapy for relief of menopausal symptoms but has possible contraindications and side effects. Recently Piascledine (combination of Avocado oil with Soybean oil) showed effects in reducing hot flash severity. Present study designed to compare the effects of HRT with Piascledine in treatment...

BACKGROUND Central to the design of a randomised controlled trial is the calculation of the number of participants needed. This is typically achieved by specifying a target difference and calculating the corresponding sample size, which provides reassurance that the trial will have the required statistical power (at the planned statistical significance level) to identify whether a difference of...

A sample size calculation for logistic regression involves complicated formulae. This paper suggests use of sample size formulae for comparing means or for comparing proportions in order to calculate the required sample size for a simple logistic regression model. One can then adjust the required sample size for a multiple logistic regression model by a variance inflation factor. This method re...

Exact power and sample size calculation for bioequivalence studies with high order crossover designs using statistical software nQuery are presented. Such calculation can be very easily performed, and thus provides a convenient tool for practical usage.

In clinical research, parameters required for sample size calculation are usually unknown. A typical approach is to use estimates from some pilot studies as the true parameters in the calculation. This approach, however, does not take into consideration sampling error. Thus, the resulting sample size could be misleading if the sampling error is substantial. As an alternative, we suggest a Bayes...

Flash sintering has been investigated as a modern sintering method through examining the effect of processing parameters such as current density, temperature, and contact paste on the flash sintered 8YSZ characteristic. 95% of theoretical density was achieved at 800°С in 30sec with a field intensity of 100V.cm-1 and a current density of 160mA.mm-2. Such relative density in conventional sinterin...

On Friday, 14 April 2017, a heavy flash flood occurred in North-West of Iran that affected 12 cities; the most severely affected and damaged ones were Ajabshir and Azarshahr in East Azerbaijan Province. These Flash floods claimed the lives of 42 people. Major casualties occurred when the victims were trapped inside their cars. According to preliminary analyses, flood damages in East Azerbaijan ...

The accuracy of judging whether the film is damaged directly affects measurement laser damage threshold. When by traditional plasma flash method, there a problem misjudgment caused failure to distinguish and air flash. In order eliminate misjudgment, two flashes are accurately distinguished difference in duration This paper aims obtain theoretical experimental values (tf) analyze factors affect...

What is Flash? Programmers use ActionScript, which is Flash’s programming language, to create these user interfaces. All of Flash’s capabilities discussed above with the use of Flash Remoting help programmers to create responsive client­server Internet applications that enrich the user’s experience. Flash programmers and Flash users now both have an easier time with the creation of Flash MX ...
