introduction: effects of exercise on different body systems, especially cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems are evidenced. there is a dynamic homeostatic balance between coagulation and fibrinolysis in normal circulation. effect of exercise and training on this homeostatic balance has been studied extensively but there are a few studies with regards to analysis of the effects of training...

This paper introduces work on a major ongoing research project being carried out collaboratively between Edinburgh, Durham and Coventry Universities in Britain. The main concepts and conceptual frameworks being used in the project are introduced, along with a brief summary of a literature review used to define the most salient aspects of teachinglearning environments in higher education. The re...

when the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. this is not a problem for hcm2000 method. but optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

objective: alpha-thalassemia is one of the most prevalent hemoglobin disorders in the world and it is a common hereditary condition caused by deletion of one or more α-globin genes. common α-thalassemia deletions like 3.7 kb, 4.2 kb, 20.5 kb and med can be detected by multiplex pcr. there are, however, some unknown deletions that can not be detected by the mentioned method or even by direct dna...

to investigate uterine fluid and serum calcium (ca) and magnesium (mg) variations during the estrus cycle in water buffaloes, 71 genital tracts and blood samples were collected from the abattoir in urmia. the phase of the estrous cycle was determined by examining ovarian structures. 18 animals were pro-estrous, 15 estrous, 16 met-estrous and 22 diestrous. the uterine fluid was collected by gent...

the aim of this investigation was to study macroscopic and microscopic structures of ovaries in barbus grypus of karoon river and their changes during annual maturation cycle. for this purpose, 120 adult  b.grypus with a mean weight of 835.0 to 1012.0 g, were caught from karoon river and transferred alive to the laboratory. after biometrical studies, the weights and morphological appearances of...

introduction citrullinemia is a defect in the urea cycle that causes ammonia to accumulate in the blood. we describe the anesthetic management of a patient with citrullinemia, who experienced an unexpected 10 day hospital admission. case presentation we anesthetized a 3.5 year-old boy with citrullinemia who was scheduled for a dentistry procedure. perioperative precautions included minimizing f...

shirbot ( barbus grypus ) is one of the species in south and southwest of iran which is greatly favorable to residents of the region. unfavorable ecological conditions in habitat of this species and overfishing have led to the reduction of the population of shirbot. therefore, to restore the natural stock of this species, identifying its reproductive cycle associated with its habitat is of a gr...

the transcriptional factor oct4 regulates pluripotency of stem cells and has an important role during oocyte growth. whereas, its role has remained ambiguous in ovarian tissue during reproductive cycle. therefore, this study was aimed to investigate the expression patterns of oct4 in mouse ovaries during the normal estrous cycle. adult national medical research institute mice were classified as...
