Background: Old age is accompanied by impaired musculoskeletal and nervous system, which may result in low mobility and cognitive problems. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between Physical Activity (PA) and Cognitive Function (CF) among the elderly population. Objectives: ?? Materials & Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted on 200 old people who were memb...

An attempt was made to analyze the elastic modulus (G0) of chickpea flour (CF)-based muffin batters made with CF alone and with added biopolymers (whey protein (WP), xanthan gum (XG), inulin (INL), and their blends) in order to evaluate their suitability to be a wheat flour (WF) substitute in muffins, and to model the heat-induced gelatinization of batters under non-isothermal heating condition fro...

this study presents data on age structure, sex ratio, growth, length-weight relationships and condition factor of four populations (n=312) of  two alburnoides species, collected in 2005 and 2006 from the tajan river (caspian sea basin), the ghara-chai and jajrud rivers (namak lake basin), and cheshmeh-ali spring (kavir basin) of iran. sex ratio of the fish, in the studied localities, except in ...

the effects of weight and length of barbus grypus broodstock on fingerlings reproductive characteristics and growth were investigated. we chose three female treatments  including weight and length groups (1) 2212.5±479g,  62.68±6.7cm, (2) 4518±780g,  79.12±4.36cm  and (3) 7712.5±1171g, 92.62±3.13cm. the same male broodstock were used for all the treatments with the weight and length size of 140...

The condition of congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is, in the majority of patients, related to defects in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. CBAVD patients either are compound heterozygotes (carrying different mutations in their two CFTR genes) or carry a mutation in one of their CFTR genes and an intron 8 5T splice variant, associated wi...

Azithromycin (AZM) has shown promising anti-inflammatory properties in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and clinical studies have presented an improvement in the respiratory condition of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate, in human airway cells, the mechanism by which AZM has beneficial effects in CF. We demonstrated that AZM did not have any anti-inf...

 Abstract—KNN classification finds k nearest neighbors of a query in training data and then predicts the class of the query as the most frequent one occurring in the neighbors. This is a typical method based on the majority rule. Although majority-rule based methods have widely and successfully been used in real applications, they can be unsuitable to the learning setting of skewed class distr...

The TATA binding protein (TBP) interacts with two transcription factor complexes, upstream activating factor (UAF) and core factor (CF), to direct transcription by RNA polymerase I (polI) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Previous work indicates that one function of TBP is to serve as a bridge, enabling UAF to recruit and stabilize the binding of CF (23, 24). In this work we show that, in ...

The need to meet the world’s growing demand for energy in an environmentally sustainable manner has led exploration of various renewable (RE) resources power generation. objective this study is examine techno-economic potential concentrated solar plants (i.e., linear Fresnel reflector (LFR) and central receiver system (CRS) electricity generation Eastern African countries with a case on Ethiopi...
