regardless of severity, earlier intervention to correct hearing loss in children improves speech development and conversational abilities. a cross-sectional study was performed on 230 neonates who were at risk of hearing loss in tehran university of medical sciences hospitals between september 2000 and february 2002. hearing was examined before the 3rd month by auditory brainstem responses (abr...

background: stillbirth is a sensitive indicator for health care quality, living conditions and equity in a society. the aim of this study was to determine the rate and contributing factors of stillbirth at babol hospitals. methods: this cross-sectional, descriptive, analytical study was designed as an applied research, using census sampling in 2012-2013. a questionnaire was applied for data col...

Neurotechnology has made great strides in the last 20 years. However, we still have a long way to go commercialize many of these technologies as lack unified framework study cyber-neural systems (CNS) that bring hardware, software, and neural system together. Dynamical play key role developing they capture different aspects brain provide insight into their function. Converging evidence suggests...

in this paper, a new formula is applied for the calculation of gravity anomalies from a cylinder model representing a geological body. compared to conventional methods, this new development allows the cylinder to be freely oriented in space. 38 gravity forward models are produced each of which anomaly attributes are calculated. then a linear relationship is established between attributes and so...

A bstract The long-standing muon g ? 2 anomaly has been confirmed recently at the Fermilab. combined discrepancy from Fermilab and Brookhaven results shows a difference theory significance of 4.2 ? . In addition, LHC updated lower mass bound pure wino. this letter, we study to what extent can be explained in mediation scenarios, where wino is dominant dark matter component. To end, derive some ...

This paper presents an artificial immune system (AIS) based on Grossman's tunable activation threshold (TAT) for temporal anomaly detection. We describe the generic AIS framework and the TAT model adopted for simulating T Cells behaviour, emphasizing two novel important features: the temporal dynamic adjustment of T Cells clonal size and its associated homeostasis mechanism. We also present som...
