the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of polyethylene glycol (peg) molecular weights (6000, 12000 and 20000) as solid dispersion (sd) carriers on the dissolution behavior of simvastatin. sds with various drug : carrier ratios were prepared by solvent method and evaluated for dissolution rate. differential scanning calorimetry (dsc), x-ray diffraction (xrd), infrared spe...

We consider a facility location problem, where the objective is to “disperse” a number of facilities, i.e., select a given number k of locations from a discrete set of n candidates, such that the average distance between selected locations is maximized. In particular, we present algorithmic results for the case where vertices are represented by points in d-dimensional space, and edge weights co...

in this study the effect of using multi-walled carbon nanotube (mwcnt) on flexural and compressive strengths, ultimate displacement and energy absorption capability of standard cement mortar considering different weight percentages of nanotubes as well as different dispersion methods has been investigated. influential point in adding nanotubes to the composites is their proper dispersion, which...

BACKGROUND P wave dispersion is an independent predictor of atrial fibrillation. P wave dispersion is associated with inhomogeneous and discontinuous propagation of sinus impulses. The purpose of this study was to investigate P wave dispersion and transthoracic echocardiographic findings in elite women basketball players. METHODS We recruited 27 well-trained woman athletes with a training his...

In this study, a novel mesoporous silica nanoparticles drug carrier contributes to improving the solubility, dissolution, and the oral bioavailability of apigenin (AP). The apigenin of solid dispersion of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (AP-MSN) was prepared by physical absorption method and also, in-vitro drug release and in-vivo bioavailability performance were evaluated. Based on its solubil...

Data envelopment analysis which is a nonparametric technique for evaluating relative efficiency of the decision making units with multiple inputs and outputs, has been a very popular method among researchers. While this nonparametric technique is popular, it has some drawbacks such as lack of discrimination in efficient units and weights dispersion .The present study, which is a model based on ...

Measurement of QT dispersion as calculated from the 12-lead ECG has emerged as a non-invasive assessment for degree of myocardial inhomogeneity. Increased QT dispersion predicts sudden cardiac death in variety of disease states such as acute myocardial infarction and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. To improve identification of athletes at high risk of sudden death, resting electrocardiograms were ...
