Background: Pediatric lower urinary tract scoring system (PLUTSS) is a questionnaire contains items for assessment of wetting episodes, voiding frequency and pattern. It is used for screening and evaluation of the response of children with lower urinary tract symptoms to therapy. We studied the validity and reliability of Persian translated version of this questionnaire among Iranian children...

Chlamydiae are intracellular, gram-negative, and prokaryotic microorganisms. Capable of causing disease in many mammalian avian species, there three types that cause humans: Chlamydia trachomatis, pneumoniae, psittaci. Among the chlamydia C. trachomatis is most studied encountered type because it a leading trachoma sexually transmitted diseases. known pathogen genital tract, can also be routine...

Background: To report a rare case of a left ejaculatory duct that allotropically protrudes or invades towards the left vesicle triangular area with its dead end. Materials and Methods: The patient simultaneously exhibited multiple congenital malformations of the homolateral urogenital system, such as the absence of a left kidney, the dysplasia and allotopia of the left seminal vesicle, the abse...

the delivery of therapeutic proteins has gained momentum with development of biotechnology. however, large molecular weight, hydrophilic nature and susceptibility to harsh environment of gastrointestinal tract (git) resulted in low absorption. the main objective of this work was the design of a particulate system for oral delivery of recombinant human growth hormone (rhgh) on the basis of parti...

This study shows that ichonology can be used to refine sequence stratigraphy as well as to interpret the depositional environment of the Kalat Formation (Upper Maastrichtian) in the Central Kopeh- Dagh Basin (NE Iran), Dareh-Gaz section. Field studies and petrography of these deposits led to recognize four lithofacies and nine subfacies that formed in the tidal flat (lithofacies A), lagoon (lit...
