background and purpose: most traditional tea shop owners use a bowl to wash tea cups in sari city (north of iran). there are more than 140 traditional tea shops in the city. unfortunately most people drinking at these shops as well as health authorities do not pay attention to the health criteria of the shop. the objective of this study was to examin the tea cups washing water of traditional te...

This study aimed to determine the effect of learning model, which consists problem posing and conceptual understanding procedures (CUPs) critical thinking on outcomes-oriented (HOTS) content mathematics lessons. The research was conducted at a state elementary school in Jakarta, with sample 68 students. independent variables are models thinking, while dependent variable is HOTS-oriented outcome...

earned for the practice by the trainee. On most days the trainee had a midmorning break, when he drank a cup of coffee provided by the practice. The trainee drank about 210 cups of coffee in one year. A 300 g jar of coffee makes 165 cups at a cost of £3.85; 210 cups of coffee will have cost £4.89. The trainee added 25 ml of milk to each cup, a total of 9-2 pints of milk over the year at a cost ...

Menstrual cups have been reported to be an acceptable substitute for tampons. These flexible cups have also been reported to provide a sustainable solution to menstrual management, with modest cost savings and no significant health risk. The present article documents the first case of toxic shock syndrome associated with the use of a menstrual cup in a woman 37 years of age, using a menstrual c...

The calibration coefficients of two commercial anemometers equipped with different rotors were studied. The rotor cups had the same conical shape, while the size and distance to the rotation axis varied. The analysis was based on the 2-cup positions analytical model, derived using perturbation methods to include second-order effects such as pressure distribution along the rotating cups and fric...

We assessed differences in the incidence and appearance of the radiological signs of loosening of the cup for various types of design. This was an observational study based on hip registry data of 15,340 patients with 17,951 total hip arthroplasties collected over a period of 33 years in 49 hospitals in Central Europe. The threaded and the press-fit titanium cups showed significantly less asept...

An invertible Euclidean reconstruction method for a 2D curve is proposed. Hints on an extension to 3D are provided. The framework of this method is the discrete analytical geometry. The reconstruction result is more compact than classical methods such as the Marching Cubes. The notions of discrete cups and patches are introduced.
