objective: soil organic carbon has been the most important soil quality measurement factors and has intense relation with soil physical, chemical and biological characteristics. organic matter and its components are important factors of soil aggregates constitution and stability and play significant role in its structure. so, this research has been done for achieving this purpose. methods: this...

Let G be a simple graph with non-negative edge weights. Determining a minimum weight spanning tree is a fundamental problem that arises in network design and as a subproblem in many combinatorial optimization problems such as vehicle routing. In some applications, it is necessary to restrict the diameter of the spanning tree and thus one is interested in the problem : Find, in a given weighted ...

From cosets of binary Hamming codes we construct diameter perfect constantweight ternary codes with weight n − 1 (where n is the code length) and distances 3 and 5. The class of distance 5 codes has parameters unknown before.

BACKGROUND & AIMS Weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is associated with reductions in health status and quality of life. We evaluated whether gastrojejunal stoma diameter is a risk factor for weight regain after RYGB. METHODS We examined data collected over 4 years from consecutive patients referred to a tertiary care bariatric center for upper endoscopy after RYGB. We used l...

Background: The portal vein is one of the main sources blood supply liver. About three quarters liver flow from vein.
 Objectives: To assess mean normal diameter in healthy pregnant women, and correlate our observation with maternal age, parity other baseline characteristics.
 Subjects Methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at Obstetrics Radiology Units two ter...

We report the hemodynamic parameters of stage 18, 21, 24, and 27 chick embryos (from 3 to 5 days of incubation). Dorsal aortic blood velocity and mean vitelline artery blood pressure are measured with a 20 MHz pulsed-Doppler meter and servo-null pressure system respectively. We also measure heart rate, dorsal aortic diameter and embryo weight of each developmental stage. From these data, we cal...
