Background: Adiponectin is an adipocytokines which is secreted from the adipose tissue of human and domestic animals. No information is available regarding the follicular fluid adiponectin concentrations in dairy cows. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the follicular fluid adiponectin concentrations in different-sized follicles in the luteal phase of the estrous cycle in ...

An elastic medium with a large number of small axially symmetric solid particles is considered. It is assumed that the particles are identically oriented and under the influence of elastic medium they move translationally or rotate around symmetry axis but the direction of their symmetry axes does not change. The asymptotic behavior of small oscillations of the system is studied, when the diame...

objectives: this study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of inverted and unprocessed digitized periapical radiographs for detection of peri-implant defects. materials and methods: a total of 30 osteotomy sites were prepared in three groups of control, study group 1 with 0.425 mm defects and study group 2 with 0.725 mm defects using the sic and astra tech drill systems with 4.25mm and 4.8...

In this study, efficient methods for optimal sensor placement (OSP) based on a new geometrical viewpoint for damage detection in structures is presented. The purpose is to minimize the effects of noise on the damage detection process. In the geometrical viewpoint, a sensor location is equivalent to projecting the elliptical noise on to a face of response space which is corresponding to the sens...

in this research we seek to recognize the status of marketing information systems and its weaknesses in medium and large size food industries. we abandoned all organization diagnosis models and conducted mcleod and rogers model as one of the most popular models in similar researches. since marketing affairs is more important and sensible in food industry than others, the research was done in th...

Objective: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the fracture resistance endodontically treated teeth restored with different intraradicular posts (carbon fibers, glass, or quartz) varying post diameters (narrow, medium, large). Methodology: One hundred and twenty bovine incisors were space prepared. classified according distinct [Narrow (0.91-1.49mm), Medium (1.5-2.08mm), Large (2.09m...
