background: small cell lung cancer (sclc) is a highly aggressive tumor.   objective: to evaluate the survival and time to progression of patients with sclc admitted to a chest disease center in istanbul, turkey.   methods: based on the reports of a pulmonary oncology clinic, data regarding performance status (ps), clinical stage of disease, treatment, time to progression and survival of 67 pati...

Objectives—To investigate aVective change in Alzheimer’s disease and ischaemic vascular disease and examine the contribution of white matter disease to psychopathology in these dementias. Based on earlier studies, it was predicted that: (1) depression would be more prevalent and severe in ischaemic vascular disease; (2) psychomotor slowing would be more prevalent in ischaemic vascular disease; ...

line g11867 was first introduced in iran together with 206 other white, chitti and red beans lines through ciat, and was tested in different breeding experiments from 1992 to 1999. it was selected as a superior line in all experiments. in 2001 this line was evaluated with other six lines for drought tolerance, and it was found to be more tolerant than cv. daneshkadeh the check cultivar. line g1...

BACKGROUND Lameness represents the third most important health-related cause of economic loss in the dairy industry after fertility and mastitis. Although, dairy Mediterranean Buffaloes (MB) and dairy cows share similar breeding systems predisposing to similar herd problems, published studies exploring its relevance and role in these ruminants are still rare and incomplete. The aims of this stu...

   This paper intended to review the lameness in dairy cattle. But it was necessary to have an overview about the hoof anatomical structure, it's growth and overgrowth properties. Most common causes of lameness such as laminitis and its different clinical form or presentation such as sole ulcers, toe ulcers, white line disorders, sole and white linehemorrhages have been reviewed and discussed. ...

are excellent. Most of them are in black and white and some in colour. Marginal headings save waste of time in introducing the items. Several non-venereal conditions causing confusion in diagnosis are included. Some faults usually characteristic of the first edition are still present. Examples : (1) Pages 169-170, a line is out of place. (2) Page 200, from two doses, after the decimal point, a ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE White matter hyperintensities are characteristic of old age and identifiable on FLAIR and T2-weighted MR imaging. They are typically separated into periventricular or deep categories. It is unclear whether the innermost segment of periventricular white matter hyperintensities is truly abnormal or is imaging artifacts. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used FLAIR MR imaging from ...

HS0907+1902 was recently discovered to be one of a handful of deeply eclipsing dwarf novae with periods longward of the 2 – 3 hr ‘gap’. This paper presents orbit-resolved spectra and time series photometry of an eclipse. The apparent velocity amplitude of the M-dwarf secondary is K2 = 297 ± 15 km s . The phase of the radial velocities of the Hα emission line wings agrees accurately (for once) w...
