The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) on biochemical, pain, and performance parameters during the 5-day recovery period after damaging exercise for hamstrings. Participants completed a bout of damaging exercise for the hamstring muscles on two separate occasions (control and experimental condition) separated by 10 weeks. During the control conditio...

Objectives: One of the most important problems seen in patients after stroke is that they cannot develop normal muscle strength. In recent years, the use of Mirror Therapy (MT) in the recovery of this condition has been noticed in different studies. This study investigated the effect of MT on motor recovery in patients after stroke. Methods: In this clinical trial, 93 patients were divided int...

We give some new results on sparse signal recovery in the presence of noise, for weighted spaces. Traditionally, were used dictionaries that have the norm equal to 1, but, for random dictionaries this condition is rarely satised. Moreover, we give better estimations then the ones given recently by Cai, Wang and Xu.

Even though the automatic recovery techniques of workflow have attracted enough attention in recent years, several critical issues regarding the distributed recovery have not been addressed. For example, if we do the recovery under sustained attacks, in which condition the recovery can terminate? Is a synchronized clock necessary for distributed recovery? In this paper, we proposed a dead-lock ...

chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) is mainly cultivated in arid and semi-arid agricultural systems. drought stress is a major factor delimiting maximum yield. this research evaluated the effects of drought stress treatments on expression of cu/znsod as a gene involving in drought tolerance by real time pcr technique. to find the probable relationship between the molecular and physiological effects o...

salinity stress results to decreasing leaf area index (lai) and light absorption in plant leading in yield decrease. in order to study effect of salinity and iron sulphate on lai, absorbed light percentage and yield of sunflower (euroflor cultivar), an experiment was carried out as split plot based on complete randomized block design with four replications in the research field of university of...

In this study pre-combustion capture of carbon dioxide from hydrogen was performed using a 5A zeolite adsorber. A one column thermal pressure swing adsorption (TPSA) process was studied in the bulk separation of a CO2/H2 mixture (50:50 vol%). The adsorption dynamics of the zeolite bed were investigated by breakthrough experiments to select the suitable range for operational factors in the desig...
