The yellow hypergiants are found in a stage between the massive Red Supergiants and the Wolf-Rayet stars. This review addresses current issues concerning the evolution of massive stars, concentrating on the transitional postRed Supergiant phase. Few yellow hypergiants are known and even fewer show direct evidence for having evolved off the Red Supergiant branch. Indeed, only two such rare objec...

Background and aim: Aromatherapy is the art and science of using essential oils extracted from aromatic plants, and is concerned with natural balance, coordination and promotion of health. This study was designed to determine the effect of "rose (Rosa damascena) essential oil" inhalation and foot bath on the improvement of maternal and neonatal health outcomes. Material and methods: This study ...

Sixty cases of infertility due to luteal phase defect were treated with herbs to tonify the kidney and regulate the menstrual cycle. After the treatment, the hyperthermal phase score of basal body temperature (BBT) was markedly increased (P less than 0.05), the hyperthermal phase 7-8 days after ovulation improved (P less than 0.001), the transitional period of BBT remarkably shortened, and the ...

The stationary phase point (SPP) method in one-dimensional case is introduced to treat the diffractive scintillation. From weak scattering, where the SPP number N=1, to strong scattering (N≫1), via transitional scattering regime (N∼2,3), we find that the modulation index of intensity experiences the monotonically increasing from 0 to 1 with the scattering strength, characterized by the ratio of...

We investigated the relationship between CT findings - number and the viability phase of the parasites - and the seizure frequency in children with neurocysticercosis before and short-term after antiepileptic drug (AED) introduction. We only found a significant interaction between stage of parasitic infection and number of lesions on seizure frequency after AED treatment. Patients with more tha...

A system of ordinary nuclear matter, the resultant of classic 2-flavor color superconductivity is investigated. It is shown that the time independence of the contributions one system to another without the transitional phase portrays another system by itself and constitutes the equilibrium solution of the original time independent system. Methodology is accentuated with the explanations, we wri...

wnloaded pose: This study aimed to identify molecular determinants of sensitivity of non–small cell lung (NSCLC) to anti–insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) therapy. erimental Design: A total of 216 tumor samples were investigated, of which 165 consisted of rettive analyses of banked tissue and an additional 51 were from patients enrolled in a phase II study tumumab, a monoclonal antib...

Granulation tissue is a transitional replacement for normal dermis, which eventually matures into a scar during the remodelling phase of healing. It is characterised from unwounded dermis by its extremely dense network of blood vessels and capillaries, elevated cellular density of fibroblasts and macrophages and randomly organised collagen fibres (Ovington and Schultz, 2004). Healthy granulatio...

The level statistics of the spherical mean-Þeld plus pairing model is investigated based on the exact solutions obtained from the extended Heine-Stieltjes correspondence. It is shown that the level statistics for Ca and Ca calculated from the model with single-particle energies and a pairing strength extracted from experimental data indeed exhibits a chaotic behavior within the phase transition...
