A reversed Delta III total shoulder prosthesis was retrieved post-mortem, eight months after implantation. A significant notch was evident at the inferior pole of the scapular neck which extended beyond the inferior fixation screw. This bone loss was associated with a corresponding, erosive defect of the polyethylene cup. Histological examination revealed a chronic foreign-body reaction in the ...

The present investigation of crude extracts from the whole plant Merremia umbellata was done by cold maceration with methanol and pet ether solvent subjected to preliminary phytochemical, pharmacological screening, antibacterial against selected Gram-positive Gram-negative bacteria. Phytochemical studies indicate presence Flavonoids steroids, alkaloids, carbohydrates, Triterpenoids glycosides, ...

objectives: belonging to papaveraceae family, glaucium vitellinum is one of the persian endemic plants which has not been investigated biologically. the present paper focused on the assessment of the antibacterial and antifungal activities of the total methanol extract and alkaloid sub-fraction of the flowering aerial parts of g. vitellinum. materials and methods: the antibacterial and antifung...

nepeta depauperata belongs to the lamiaceae family and is one the persian endemic plants which has not been investigated biologically. in the present paper we had focused on the assessment of the antibacterial and antifungal activities of the total methanolic extract and different sub-fraction of the flowering aerial parts of it. the antibacterial and antifungal activities were investigated by ...

This paper describes the experimental study of viscosity measurement error in the vibrational type viscometer, which measures viscous damping of the oscillating circular plate in a fluid in continuously increasing temperatures. The experiments are carried out to measure non-uniformity of the temperature field in the test cup of the vibrational viscometer in continuously increasing temperatures,...

this study presents exact bending solution of fully clamped orthotropic rectangular plates subjected to arbitrary loads resting on elastic foundations, based on the finite integral transform method. in this method, it is not necessary to determine the deformation function because the basic governing equations of the classical plate theory for orthotropic plates have been used. a detailed parame...

this paper presents the bending analysis of annular plates by the indirect trefftz boundary approach. the formulation for thin and thick plates is based on the kirchhoff plate theory and the reissner plate theory. the governing equations are therefore a fourth-order boundary value problem and a sixth-order boundary value problem, respectively. the trefftz method employs the complete set of solu...

Reasoning agents are often faced with the need to robustly deal with erroneous information. When a robot given the task of returning with the red cup from the kitchen table arrives in the kitchen to find no red cup but instead notices a blue cup and a red plate on the table, what should it do? The best course of action is to attempt to salvage the situation by relying on its preferences to retu...

Background: Oral feeding problems are among the most common issues in preterm infants. Various methods and feeding support tools are used in this regard, such as cup feeding and feeding nozzle. The present study aimed to determine the preferred method between cup feeding and feeding nozzle to support oral feeding in premature neonates. Methods: This clinical trial was conducted on 70 preterm i...

mhd boundary layer flow of two phase model nanofluid over a vertical plate is investigated both analytically and numerically. a system of governing nonlinear partial differential equations is converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by suitable similarity transformations and then solved analytically using homotopy analysis method and numerically by the fourth order rung...
