Aims Personal identification is one of the important issues in forensic medicine to the identity of an individual. Due to differences in ethnic groups in physical characteristics, it is necessary to perform anthropometric studies in each population.  The aim of this study was to investigate the dimensions of the foot and its relationship with stature in the Lebanese population. Materials & Meth...

 Aims and background: Poincare plot and its length and width are known as a criterion for short-term variations of electroencephalogram signals )EEGs(. This study evaluates the effect of time delay on changes in the width of the Poincare plot in brain signal during different anesthesia states. Materials and Methods: Poincare plots are drawn with one to six delay in three sets, including awake s...

Water deficit is one of the most important abiotic factors limiting growth, which adversely affect growth and crop production. In order to study the relationship between kernel size and phenological characteristics on grain yield, 46 local bread wheat genotypes along with four varieties were evaluated in randomized complete block design with three replications under irrigation and water deficit...

  In this work, the effects of inner radius and width variation on energy spectrum and persistent current in hexagonal graphene quantum rings with zigzag edges have been studied by using the tight-binding model. Our investigation show that the energy spectra of these rings are grouped into subbands which each one consists of six coupled energy levels that separated by energy gaps. The pattern o...

Statement of Problem: In order to eliminate the esthetic problem of metal collar in porcelain fused to metal crowns various techniques, such as shoulder porcelain, have been suggested. Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of repeated porcelain firing cycles on the marginal integrity of shoulder in porcelain fused to metal crowns, made of two kinds of alloys: noble and b...

Cornalian cherry (Cornus mas L.) is a native woody species in Arasbaran, N.W. Iran. It commonly grows as a wild tree on the forest edges and in forest openings areas. In this study, the influence of physiographic and environmental factors such as aspect, climate (temperature, precipitation) and physical and chemical properties of soil on the tree ring width of Cornalian cherry was examined and ...
