nowadays novel has a dominant role in literature owing to its special capability to demonstrate the social dilemmas and stories. the main factor which makes a novel attractive is proportionality and symmetry of dialogue with characters and the story. in the case of narratology of a story, an alerted analyzer illustrates premier features of the story with employing narrative mechanisms and story...

With the development of human communications the usage of Visual Communications has also increased. The advancement of image compression methods is one of the main reasons for the enhancement. This paper first presents the main modes of image compression methods such as JPEG and JPEG2000 without mathematical details. Also, the paper describes gradient Haar wavelet transforms in order to constru...

AKs: actinic keratoses CPAP: continuous positive airway pressure FU: fluorouracil INTRODUCTION Actinic keratoses (AKs) are precancerous cutaneous lesions with a prevalence of 11% to 25%. Fair skin (Fitzpatrick type I and II) with light eyes and hair along with increased age, male gender, excessive ultraviolet light exposure, and immunosuppression increase the risk of AKs. AKs are most commonly ...

Actinic keratoses (AKs) are defined clinically as erythematous and scaly plaques occurring on chronically sun-damaged skin as a result to exposure to ultraviolet radiation. They are typically located on the face, the scalp, the neck, and the extremities. It is said that ‘their potential for malignant transformation is well documented’ (1), because of several mechanisms of ultraviolet-induced da...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with methyl-aminolevulinate (MAL) is an approved non-invasive treatment option for actinic keratoses (AKs). In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a non-invasive tool for real-time imaging of epidermis and superficial dermis in vivo that has been previously reported to facilitate the in vivo evaluation of skin lesions, including AKs. The aim of this study wa...

BACKGROUND Actinic keratoses (AKs) are dysplastic epidermal lesions considered to be potential precursors of squamous cell carcinoma. Most AKs are diagnosed clinically and are rarely confirmed histologically. High interobserver variation exists among dermatologists for the diagnosis of AKs. Previous studies of the positive predictive value of the diagnosis of AKs have yielded rates as high as 9...

While actinic keratoses (AKs) have a known association with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the relation of actinic field change to SCC has not been quantified. This study investigated the presence of field change and AKs in renal transplant recipients (RTRs) and estimated SCC risk. In May 2010 to October 2011, a dermatologist examined 452 white RTRs (mean age 53 years) at two hospital...

The AKS algorithm (by Agrawal, Kayal and Saxena) is a significant theoretical result proving “PRIMES in P”, as well as a brilliant application of ideas from finite fields. This paper describes the first step towards the goal of a full mechanisation of this result: a mechanisation of the AKS Main Theorem, which justifies the correctness (but not the complexity) of the AKS algorithm.

At a high level, the AKS algorithm for finding the shortest vector in a lattice works by taking a large sphere or box and choosing many (e.g. ∼ 2) random lattice points in the box by taking random combinations of the basis. The points are then refined through an iterative routine called sieving. The sieving procedure Sieve(Y ) will have the following properties. Sieve(Y ) = C ⊆ Y such that: • F...

Objective- Our point is to determine if the treatment of the 3rd degree burn wounds makes any difference if sprayed cultured autologous keratinocyte used alone or in combination with Fibrin glue. Design- Animal experimental study. Animals- 30 male Wistar rats. Procedures- Thirty male Wistar rats were selected and their keratinocytes were isolated and cultured from small skin biops...
