introduction: in order to make a dimensional proportion between human and equipment or environment, anthropometric data bank is essential. anthropometry has an important role in industrial management and ergonomic design. this information is needed to be collected regularly in every society. the purpose of this study was to determine arm length to height ratio according to gender in adults, bet...

a binuclear macrocyclic ligand containing dissimilar n(amine)2o2 and n(imine)2o2 coordination sites sharing two phenolic oxygen atoms, was prepared by cyclic condensation of dialdehyde precursor l1h2 with 1,3-diaminopropane. the ligand includes two propionitrile pendant arms on the amine nitrogen atoms. the homobimetallic complex [znl2zn(oac)]pf6 was synthesized by one step procedure. heterobim...

background: nonspecific symptoms are common in all areas of medicine. patients and caregivers can be frustrated when an illness cannot be reduced to a discrete pathophysiological process that corresponds with the symptoms. we therefore asked the following questions: 1) which demographic factors and psychological comorbidities are associated with change from an initial diagnosis of nonspecific a...

background: h-reflex is a valuable electrophysiological technique for assessing nerve conduction through entire length of afferent and efferent pathways, especially nerve roots and proximal segments of peripheral nerves. the aim of this study was to investigate the relation between normal values of flexor carpi radialis (fcr) h-reflex latency, upper limb length and age in normal subjects, and t...

The research study was designed to compare the safety and efficacy of the regimen of 5-flurouracil with cisplatin of investigational arm with the reference regimen of gemcitabine with cisplatin for the treatment of gallbladder cancer. A total of 60 patients were enrolled in the study. Out of 30 patients enrolled in arm-A (Gemcitabine with Cisplatin) and 30 patients enrolled in arm-B (5-Fluroura...

the purpose of this study was to assess exposure to hand-arm vibration in tiller users, forty users of tiller in northeastern provinces of iran were examined to measure hand-arm vibration parameters such as root mean square acceleration (rms), total equivalent acceleration, vibration dose value (vdv) and crest factor in three directions (x, y, and z) and various operating modes for comparing th...
