Background. It is unclear whether the clinical use of tibial rotation to measure the strength of the medial hamstrings and lateral hamstrings in isolation is based on sound scientific evidence or is simply based on anatomical features. Objectives. To verify the appropriateness of tibial rotation for isolation of the medial hamstrings and lateral hamstrings, the participants performed neutral r...

Linear Low Density Polyethylene-Natural Rubber (LLDPE-NR) composites in the ratio of 70:20 were made with different loadings of nanosilica and micro-scale Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA). Linear Low Density Polyethylene grafted with maleic anhydride (LLDPE-g-MAH) of 10 wt% was added as a compatibiliser. The composites were produced by using two-roll mill machine. The tensile properties of the composit...

conclusions although toxoplasmosis nr is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnoses of nr. case presentation a 13-year-old girl presented with painless subacute visual loss in her right eye for a week at khatam-al-anbia eye hospital in mashhad, iran. following comprehensive evaluation, a diagnosis of toxoplasmic nr was made. the nr favorably responded to classic anti-toxoplasmo...

Silicon/zinc oxide (Si/ZnO) core-shell nanowires (NWs) were prepared on a p-type Si(111) substrate using a two-step growth process. First, indium seed-coated Si NWs (In/Si NWs) were synthesized using a plasma-assisted hot-wire chemical vapor deposition technique. This was then followed by the growth of a ZnO nanostructure shell layer using a vapor transport and condensation method. By varying t...

Andrzej Szklarski Qualitative research a viable methodological alternative in education This article describes the foundations, establishment and development of qualitative research, which has grown into a considerable methodological option in educational science. Qualitative research is anchored in the hermeneutic tradition and its most prominent features are an interpretative approach, induct...

Politiskā partija „Jaunais laiks” un Jūrmalas aizsardzības biedrība minēto būvatļauju apstrīdēja Jūrmalas pilsētas domē. Jūrmalas pilsētas dome ar 2009.gada 11.augusta lēmumu atteikusies izskatīt pēc būtības politiskās partijas „Jaunais laiks” apstrīd...

ZnO/graphene (ZnO-G) hybrid composites are prepared via hydrothermal synthesis with graphite, N-methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP), and Zn(NO₃)₂·6H₂O as the precursors. The characterizations, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analyses (TGA), Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicate the formation of ZnO-G. Gas sensors were fabricated with ZnO-G composites ...
