the main purpose of this study was to explore factors influencing immigration from rural to urban areas in varkaneh , a famous village and tourist destination located in western part of iran- hamedan. a questionnaire was designed and validated by a panel of experts from extension education dept. of bu-ali sina university and hamadan jihad of agriculture. its reliability was secured by cronbach’...

guilan province is the biggest hazelnut producer in iran. over 70% of hazelnut production cost is due to its manual harvesting. therefore, study on all aspects of its cultivation mechanization is necessary to sustain its production. this study focused on identifying factors that affect the development of hazelnut harvesting mechanization in guilan province, iran, using a three-round delphi tech...

Study sample No sample size appears to have been determined in the planning phase of the study. In addition, no retrospective power calculations were reported. The authors reported that a group of MIS-TKA patients was compared with a group of 50 traditional TKA patients, but it was unclear how many patients were in the MIS-TKA group. The authors then reported that all patients (n=159) were coho...

this study was conducted to investigate factors hindering the flow of breast milk, thus interfering with breast feeding during six weeks post delivery in women attending the health units associated with iran medical university in tehran (1993)   a total of 240 mothers were selected of whom 180 nursed their babies exclusively and 60 of them were giving addional helping formula.   based on the fi...

OBJECTIVE To determine age-specific serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) values for women presenting to U.S. fertility clinics. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Single clinical reference laboratory. PATIENT(S) A total of 17,120 women of reproductive age ranging from 24 to 50 years old. INTERVENTION(S) None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Determination of single-year median and mean AMH valu...

Ten laboratories in an external quality assurance scheme used the same assay to measure anti-müllerian hormone concentration (Beckman Coulter Gen II) and received twenty serum samples distributed over a 15 month period. The mean bias for all results was only -0.089%, but there was large coefficient of repeatability of 38.8% (sample bias ranged from -37.9% to +54.7%). While each laboratory showe...

(1.2) PIH : C(Sn−1) −→ C(B) ∩ C∞(Bn), such that u = PIH f solves (1.2A) ∆Hu = 0 on B, u ∣∣ Sn−1 = f. Here, ∆H is the Laplace-Beltrami operator on B, with metric tensor (1.1). We will establish further regularity on u = PIH f when f has some further smoothness on Sn−1, and estimate du(x), in the hyperbolic metric, as x → ∂B. If n = 2, then ∆Hu = 0 if and only if ∆u = 0, where ∆ = ∂ 1 +∂ 2 2 is t...

Subjects/Discussion. Two cases of clinical and radiological response of recurrent mixed Mullerian tumours following treatment with either nasal (Buserilin) or intramuscular (Goserilin) GnRH analogues are reported and a short review of the evidence to support this treatment option presented.

This review is a tutorial for scientists interested in the problem of protein structure prediction, particularly those interested in using coarse-grained molecular dynamics models that are optimized using lessons learned from the energy landscape theory of protein folding. We also present a review of the results of the AMH/AMC/AMW/AWSEM family of coarse-grained molecular dynamics protein foldin...
