recently, baghery et al. [1, 2] presented some attacks on two rfid protocols, namely yoon and jung et al. protocols, and proposed the improved version of them. however, in this note, we show that the improved version of the jung et al. protocol suffers from desynchronization attack and the improved version of the yoon's protocol suffers from secret disclosure attack. the success probabilit...

radio frequency identification (rfid) applications have spread all over the world. in order to provide their security and privacy, researchers proposed different kinds of protocols. in this paper, we analyze the privacy of a new protocol, proposed by yu-jehn in 2015 which is based on electronic product code class1 generation 2 (epc c1 g2) standard. by applying the ouafi_phan privacy model, we s...

detection and modification of the risk factors of stroke may be the most effective strategy for preventing its often irreversible consequences. a longitudinal prospective study was implemented to evaluate the effect of several risk factors on the course of cerebrovascular disease. the study groups were composed of 3s8 normal volunteers, and 308 patients with transient ischemic attacks. the two ...

certificateless public key cryptography (cl-pkc) is a useful method in order to solve the problems of traditional public key infrastructure (i. e. large amount of computation, storage and communication cost for managing certificates) and id-based public key cryptography (i. e. key escrow problem), simultaneously. a signcryption scheme is an important primitive in cryptographic protocols which p...

most of the patients imagine that chest pain is not sign of heart attack. but, may be pain is not sign of heart attack. pain source may be from pulmonary, stomach, intestinal, psychologic or musculoskeletal problems. from these factors, when two or more factors combine to each other, similar signs are happen. all of these factors harden diagnosis of chest pain reason. only with separation of pe...

 Statins are commonly used drugs in the treatment of hyperlipidemia (HL), despite some undesirable side effects. These range from mild symptoms such as myopathy, muscle weakness and myalgia to severe muscle weakness associated with chronic myopathy and acute renal failure (ARF) as a result of rhabdomyolysis. The most serious and deadly side effect of statins is rhabdomyolysis. The case presente...
