1 At the Millennium Assembly in September 2000, the world’s leaders signed a global compact to reduce extreme poverty in the Millennium Declaration. The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which are drawn from the Millennium Declaration, call for a decisive reduction of extreme poverty in its key dimensions – income, hunger, disease, environmental degradation, and lack of access to basic servi...

background: there is a growing concern on the impact of the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl) producing escherichia coli isolated from animals on public health. objectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the presence of three classes of esbl genes in e. coli isolates from sheep and broilers at a slaughter in urmia region, iran. methods: a total of 111 e. coli isolates w...

background: leukemia is a malignant proliferative disorder of the hematopoietic cells. the important role of angiogenesis in leukemia has been reported by several studies. matrix metalloproteinases (mmps) are a large group of endopeptidases which degredate the extracellular matrix and play an important role in angiogenesis. objective: the present study was conducted to evaluate the patterns of ...

The objective of the study in this paper is to define M₁,M₂-direction curves and M₁,M₂-donor curves of the spacelike curve γ via the Bishop frame of type-2 in E₁³. We obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions when the associated curves to be slant helices and general helices via the Bishop frame of type-2 in E₁³. After defining the spherical indicatrices of the associated curves, we obta...

conclusions the rapid dissemination of non clonal multi-resistant ctx-m-1 producing e. coli isolates approved the need for further studies in our medical centers. results a total of 140(70%) non-duplicate esbl positive e. coli were determined. imipenem and amikacin were effective against 100% and 85% of all tested isolates respectively. co-resistance of esbl positive isolates to erythromycin, t...

Abstract. Let Mn;m be the set of n-by-m matrices with entries inthe field of real numbers. A matrix R in Mn = Mn;n is a generalizedrow substochastic matrix (g-row substochastic, for short) if Re e, where e = (1; 1; : : : ; 1)t. For X; Y 2 Mn;m, X is said to besgut-majorized by Y (denoted by X sgut Y ) if there exists ann-by-n upper triangular g-row substochastic matrix R such thatX = RY . This ...
