the objective of the present study was to assess the combined effects of drought stress and foliar application of zinc and manganese on seed quality of red bean (naz variety) during the accelerated aging test. the experiment was carried out as split factorial in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications at the research farm of shahrekord university during 2010-2011. drou...

The original glucocorticoid (GC) hypothesis of brain aging and Alzheimer's disease proposed that chronic exposure to GCs promotes hippocampal aging and AD. This proposition arose from a study correlating increasing plasma corticosterone with hippocampal astrocyte reactivity in aging rats. Numerous subsequent studies have found evidence consistent with this hypothesis, in animal models and in hu...

In this paper, delay and transient power-supply current (IDDT) testing has been applied for a 90nm VLIW DSP IP core, to demonstrate the IDDT testing an effective alternative of delay testing to detect aging degradation. The test environment for validation, implementing an accelerated test (AT) has been investigated, delay and IDDT measurement data resulting from AT is presented and analysed. It...

Introduction: Health care providers play a central role as the main members of the health care service providers team for the elderly and their knowledge and attitudes towards the aging phenomenon can play an important role in the quality of health care services provision for the elderly. Therefore, the present study aims to comparatively investigate knowledge and attitude of health care provid...

background: aging population and prevalence of diseases like cancer among them have affected general health of the elderly, so that one of the influential factors on health components of elderly patients with cancer is death anxiety, which has important consequences in them. methods: in this cross-sectional (descriptive correlational) study, 130 elderly patients with cancer undergoing chemother...

The strongest cause of premature aging is sunlight (photoaging), especially UV A rays. Anti-aging creams containing antioxidant compounds can be used in the treatment on skin face. Red spinach leaves (Amaranthus tricolor L.) are a natural source antioxidants that have very strong potential as an anti-aging. Objectives: This study aims to determine activity red leaf extract cream anti-aging usin...

The age determination of latent fingerprint traces is a very important challenge for forensic investigations, which has not been solved satisfyingly so far. Based on prior work, we use the novel and very promising aging feature of counting binary pixel for the approximation of a mathematical aging function to be used for the age determination of latent fingerprint traces. We first show the feas...
