In this article we propose the perspective of relationship as a conceptual approach to discipline sound design. Based on literature reviews and case studies, state that making design means designing relationships, even before sounds, include expression in current definitions discipline. Moreover, observe practices can be inscribed more than one relational perspective, thus widening scope possib...

Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) has continued to develop into a powerful clinical tool to visualize venous structures and iron in the brain and to study diverse pathologic conditions. It is a new art which evaluates and exploits the properties of blood, iron and other tissues. It is a magnitude or filtered phase images or combination of both, obtained with high-resolution 3D fully velocit...

Objectives: Studies have shown that most children before the age of 5 are capable to comprehend and express wh-questions in daily conversations. This study aimed at comparing the ability of wh-questions’ production in 4- to 6-year-old children in spontaneous and elicited conditions. Methods: In this descriptive-analytic study, 4- to 6-year-old Persian-speaking children (N = 72) were selected r...

Different strategies are employed in designing strong and selective anion receptors but stereoelectronic effects have been largely ignored. In this work, the stereo configuration of a non-interacting ether is found to have a large impact of more than two orders of magnitude on the binding of a rigid diol with tetrabutylammonium chloride in acetonitrile-d3. A favorable carbon-oxygen dipole and a...

Designing self-healing into cementitious materials can open a new world of opportunities for resilient concrete infrastructure under service loading conditions. The self-healing process should be robust as well as repeatable, allowing for self-repair after multiple damage events. The repeatability poses great challenges when self-healing strategies mainly rely on the formation of low-strength c...

charcot-marie-tooth disease (cmt) is the most common inherited neurological disorder, affecting both motor and sensory peripheral nerves. neurophysiological patterns divide cmt into three main groups: demyelinating cmt1 (upper limb motor nerve conduction velocity (mncv) <38 m/s), axonal cmt2 (mncv >38 m/s) and intermediate cmt (mncv 25-45 m/s). cmt has been also categorized based on the mode of...

conclusions the mtbdrplus and mtbdrsl genotypic testing can serve as useful additional tools for dst in a high-burden country like pakistan provided it is used in combination with phenotypic testing. results the sensitivity of mtbdrplus for isoniazid and rifampicin was found to be 88.8% and 90.2%, respectively, while sensitivity of mtbdrsl for fluoroquinolones, amikacin/capreomycin, and ethambu...
