radiographic evaluation of the third molar tooth to determine its position and degree of development is an important part in diagnosis and treatment planning, as well as in forensic dentistry procedures. the objective was to investigate the developmental stages of third molars in relation to chronologic age, gender and location (maxillary/mandibular) in an iranian population.the data were colle...

objective the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and the most common risk factors of motor developmental delay in infants. materials & methods following ethical approval, a study was carried out on the prevalence and risk factors of infants with motor developmental delay. the first stage was conducted through a cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence of motor develo...

Recent studies of developmental biology have shown that the genes controlling phenotypic characters expressed in the early stage of development are highly conserved and that recent evolutionary changes have occurred primarily in the characters expressed in later stages of development. Even the genes controlling the latter characters are generally conserved, but there is a large component of neu...

introdouction: age estimation is an important issue in forensics, particularly for treatment planning and determining patients’ rights. radiographic evaluation of the third molar developmental stage is a significant criterion for age estimation. the pattern of tooth development is largely heritable and varies from race to race. the objective of this study was to radiographically examine and com...

Background: The aim of this study was evaluation of developmental rate and Bax, Bcl-2 and ErbB4 genes expression following re-vitrification in compact and early blastocysts stages. Materials and Methods: 5-8 cell embryos were collected from female mature mice, 60-62 hours post hCG injection. The embryos were divided to five groups including: fresh, vitrified at 5-8 cells, vitrified at blastocys...

the life history of enochrus quadripunctatus herbst was studied in the laboratory. the duration of each developmental stage, larval behavior, and preimaginal mortality rate were determined. it takes the insect a total of 43 days from hatching to reach the adult stage, with a high mortality rate in the first stadium. the mortality rate decreases as the beetle passes through the immature stages. ...

1- introduction crop development is qualitative changes planned that led the plant to ripening. factors such as water available, nitrogen and photosynthetic materials are affected growth and development. under irrigated conditions expected that all of factors except climate elements be controlled. thus, only climate elements able to change of plant growth and development and under these conditi...
