vanillin offers interesting possibilities for corrosion inhibition because of its safe use and highsolubility in water. the effect of vanillin on the corrosion inhibition of aisi 304 stainless steel in0.5m h2so4 solution has been studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemicalimpedance spectroscopy (eis). furthermore, this paper demonstrates that the electrochemical noise(en) tec...

background: infective endocarditis (ie) is a serious complication in immunosuppressive patients that has adverse effects. objectives: the aim of this study was to define the characteristics, outcomes, and correlating factors of mortality in renal transplant recipients. patients and methods: infective endocarditis was diagnosed in 22 patients from three renal transplant centers in iran between 2...

In this, paper we present a probabilistic approach to analysis and prediction of protein structure. We argue that this approach provides a flexible and convenient mechanism to perform general scientific data analysis in molecular biology. We apply our approach to an important problem in molecular biology-predicting the secondary structure of proteins-and obtain experimental results comparable t...

The paper presents a rule-based information extraction (IE) system for Polish medical texts. We select the most important information from diabetic patients’ records. Most data being processed are free-form texts, only a part is in table form. The work has three goals: to test classical IE methods on texts in Polish, to create relational database containing the extracted data, and to prepare an...

vanillin is an interesting corrosion inhibitor because of its safe use and high solubility inwater. the effect of vanillin on the corrosion inhibition of carbon steel in 1.0 mhydrochloric acid solution has been studied using potentiodynamic polarization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques.the effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion in th...

OBJECTIVE This study investigated the feasibility of mitral valve (MV) repair in patients with active or healed infective endocarditis (IE) with mitral regurgitation and evaluated effects on left ventricular (LV) function and structure. METHODS Subjects comprised 19 patients who underwent MV operations for IE between December 2004 and September 2007. MV repair was performed for acute IE in 10...

this article elaborates on the experience of higher medical education evaluation in iran. although institutional evaluation in iran started in about a decade ago, recent policies of the government to increase quality of higher medical education have contributed to a special effort in designing and implementing evaluation mechanisms in university systems in iran. among these a process of interna...
