Indubitably, the efficacy of metalinguistic awareness in improving EFL learners’ grammatical knowledge and writing quality has long been an area of great interest in applied linguistics Brown (2001). Accordingly, the main objective of the present study was to investigate the impact of planned and unplanned focus on form instruction on students’ ability to learn grammar and use it appropriately ...

OBJECTIVE To assess multidetector-row computed tomographic (MDCT) urography for detection of recurrence of bladder tumor after transurethral resection (TUR), and to assess significance of the MDCT findings like urothelial enhancement or thickening as a recurrence. METHODS A total of 216 MDCT urography examinations were performed for 100 patients undergoing follow-up after TURs were reviewed b...

we present a rare case with history of neurological symptoms due to multiple brain metastases and no urological symptoms. during patient evaluation for primary tumor, transitional cell carcinoma (tcc) of left renal pelvis was found. the patient underwent gamma knife stereotactic radio-surgery for the metastatic brain lesions. radical nephroureterectomy was performed, and a 4-cycle course of pac...

results anxiety scores in the intervention groups in active phase after intervention were significantly lower than the control group (p < 0.001). anxiety scores before and after intervention in intervention groups in transitional phase was significantly lower than the control group (p < 0.001). patients and methods this clinical trial study was performed after obtaining informed written consent...

polyacrylontrile synthesis, via atom transfer radical polymerization, is studied in various initiator concentrations, transitional metal catalyst and different concentrations of cubr2. the variations of monomer conversion and the lin-earity of semi-logarithmic kinetic profile which is the evidence of living polymerization and constant radical concentration in the reaction medium, were revealed ...

Reductive metabolism of the aromatic nitro group of 5-nitrofurans is thought to be an important step in the mechanism of their toxicity. Microsomal nitroreductase activity with p-nitrobenzoic acid and N-[4-(5-nitro-2-furyl)-2-thiazolyl[formamide (FANFT) as substrates was assessed in the renal cortex, outer medulla, inner medulla, bladder transitional epithelial and non-epithelial bladder tissue...

arghash – ghasem-abad area in ne iran is located in the rim of the sabzevar structural zone. tertiary outcrops include granite and quartz monzodiorite porphyry associated with dacite and andesite volcanic rocks. in the study area, quartz gabbro and quartz monzodiorite dykes intruded the older rocks. granite and volcanic rocks host au-sb-bearing quartz-calcite veins. mineralized veins are mainly...

The life cycle of Trypanosoma brucei brucei involves a series of differentiation steps characterized by marked changes in mitochondrial development and function. The bloodstream forms of this parasite completely lack cytochromes and have not been considered to have any Krebs cycle function. It has been suggested that glycolysis is the sole source of ATP in all bloodstream forms. However, earlie...

Horizontal and temporal variations in abundance and productivity of phytoand zooplankton were studied in a frontal area in the NW North Sea during September and October 1985. In addition, distributions of several cohorts of herring larvae found in this area were monitored and larval growth and survival estimated. Phytoplankton biomass and productivity as well as copepod productivity peaked in t...
