This study reports on the findings of a genre teaching course for developing academic writing of a class of EFL students in Iran. The information report genre was taught in a cyclical way of teaching and learning, which was started from ‘setting the context’ and ‘deconstruction’ of prototype information report genre, and continued with ‘joint construction’, ‘independent construction’, and final...

Despite ongoing concern about substance use during adolescence, very little is known about alcohol and drug use among teens living in affluent social settings. In this longitudinal study, cluster analysis was used to characterize patterns of substance use and change in other dimensions of psychosocial adjustment within a cohort of 292 high school students (54% girls) living in an affluent, subu...

Abstract Background: The combination of propofol-fentanyl for sedation during colonoscopy is characterized by the frequent incidence of side effects. Etomidate-fentanyl provides fewer hemodynamic and respiratory complications. The aim of our study was to compare the safety and efficacy of propofol-fentanyl and etomidate-fentanyl for conscious sedation in elective colonoscopy. Methods: This do...

OBJECTIVE To update previous systematic review of predictive models for 28-day or 30-day unplanned hospital readmissions. DESIGN Systematic review. SETTING/DATA SOURCE CINAHL, Embase, MEDLINE from 2011 to 2015. PARTICIPANTS All studies of 28-day and 30-day readmission predictive model. OUTCOME MEASURES Characteristics of the included studies, performance of the identified predictive mod...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to establish the effectiveness of interventions to reduce frequent emergency department (ED) use among a general adult high ED-use population. METHODS Systematic review of the literature from 1950-January 2015. Studies were included if they: had a control group (controlled trials or comparative cohort studies), were set in an ED or acute care facility...

Micro Electric Discharge Machining is a nontraditional machining process which can be used for drilling micro holes in high strength to weight ratio materials. This present research study deals with the single optimization of micro EDM process using Genetic Algorithm. Mathematical models using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is used to correlate the response and the parameters. The desired r...

Optimization of process parameter is one of the ideal goals in laser sintering. The results of this process were measured as output parameters like: density, micro hardening, macro hardening, tension, roughness, stiffness, balling. In this paper, the influence of input parameter such as laser power, scan speed, material powder and etc are surveyed on output parameter like balling affection and ...
