conservatively. None of the patients had sensory, speech, chewing and laughing problems after surgery. Temporary sagging of upper lip related to levator muscle damage was seen in one patient, but it improved at 6th month. Three patients were good and 7 patients were very good satisfied with nasal shape and face symmetry. Nine patients reported that the donor side of the face looked like younger...

In classical sociology, there is a sharp separation between the superstructure reflecting cultural ideals and the concrete Structural Base (SB). The authors hypothesize a Doxical Superstructure (DS) in its own space at a higher level, containing concepts such as completeness, necessity and possibility associated with abstract concepts like beliefs, ethics, knowledge, relations and science.

In this Chapter, we further highlight the difficulties to combat the problems of change with conventional techniques, in view of maintenance and evolution challenges discussed in Chapter 1. We also briefly preview some of the remedies to fight these problems using unconventional approaches. With emphasis on complexity inherent in software, we focus on the following problems: Poor visibility of ...

the pomegranate seed oil (pso), containing 17-α-estradiol, is one of the newly found phytosterols with synergistic health effects on estrogen related physiological conditions. herein, pso was assessed for its potential improving effects on bone characteristics in a rat model of menopausal syndrome. three month old non-pregnant female wistar rats (n = 30) were either sham-operated (sham) or ovar...

BACKGROUND A considerable gap exists in regard to longitudinal research on quality of life (QoL) in community populations of children and adolescents. Changes and stability of QoL have been poorly examined, despite the fact that children and adolescents undergo profound developmental changes. The aims of the study were to investigate short-term changes in student QoL with regard to sex and age ...
