invasive aspergillosis (ia) are a major complication in immunocompromized patients where can be serious and rapidly fatal. early diagnosis and early appropriate antifungal treatment is important in reducing mortality and morbidity. but despite many efforts to develop detection methods, the diagnosis of ia still remains challenging and current conventional methods are limited for adequate diagno...

In this chapter, we focus on psychological and brain perspectives on the experience of coincidence. We first introduce the topic of the experience of coincidence in general. In the second section, we outline several psychological mechanisms that underlie the experience of coincidence in humans, such as cognitive biases, the role of context and the role of individual differences. In the third an...

The multi scale approach was pioneered by Tadmor, Ortiz and Phillips [1] for atomistic-based quasi-continuum analysis of dislocations and hardening plasticity of polycrystalline metals. In that case, the structural failure is due to necking, which is caused by nonlinear geometric effects of finite strain, or to sharp fracture, which is modelled separately (see also [2]). There can be no dispute...

during the recent decades, substantial changes are made in the borders and contents of physiology as a basic course for the students in medicine. here some strategies are presented to preserve the classical and integrative approaches in teaching physiology, while these approaches extent our knowledge to molecular, sub-cellular and cellular levels.

In the present study, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) was investigated in goats slaughtered in Shiraz abattoir using histopathological examinations and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Ilium and mesenteric lymph node samples from 66 suspected goat carcasses to Johne’s disease were collected. Among 66 examined slaughtered goats, nine (13.63%) goats were positi...
