Abnormalities of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are common in hospitalized patients. Infrequently patients might present in the outpatient settings with non-specific symptoms that might be due to abnormalities of divalent cation (magnesium, calcium) or phosphorous metabolism. Several inherited disorders have been identified that result in renal or intestinal wasting of these elements. Physic...

background there has not been any published literature in iran about the evaluation of hemodialysis patients’ knowledge in relation to dietary sources of protein, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and fluids. objectives therefore, the present study was performed with this aim, in patients with renal failure treated with hemodialysis. patients and methods fifty hemodialysis patients were recruited. ...

Unintentional As/P exchange has a significant influence on InAs/InP nanostructures growth. In this paper we report on the As/P exchange reactions at different temperatures studied by in situ stress measurements and reflectance difference characterization. When arsenic atoms incorporate at the InP surface an asymmetric stress is built-up that is responsible for quantum wires formation. We obtain...

Geotextiles incorporating inorganic nutrients (particularly phosphorous) to enhance the growth of oil degrading microoganisms when geotextiles are used in pervious pavement applications have been shown to be effective in the past. However the cost and manufacturing difficulties have been a barrier to their use. A polypropylene random mat geotextile incorporating an alternative polymer additive ...
