In this research, the nutritional effects of Sargassum ilicifolium Chabahar Bay, Oman Sea, on cholesterol levels of white-leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) were studied. The seaweed was collected from coastal areas, rinsed, dried, powdered and the nutritional values were measured in the laboratory. A part of protein resources of shrimp feed replaced with seaweed powder in four treatments (D: as...

A comparative study of testicular biometry was done in rams using three major breeds of sheep in Nigeria. Biometrical parameters observed were scrotal circumference (SC), testes weight (TW), testes length (TL), tunica albuginea weight (TAW), testes volume (TV), testes density (TD), epididymal weight (EW), epididymal length (EL), caput (CA), corpus (CO), cauda weight (CU), epididymal volume (EV)...

PURPOSE To evaluate the accuracy of intraocular lens power estimation in eyes having phacovitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. METHODS Retrospective case review of 100 consecutive eyes that underwent phacovitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Axial lengths were measured using optical biometry and/or ultrasound A-scan. Achieved and predicted refraction were compared to...

Background. The aim of our work was to determine changes in opticalanatomical elements of myopic eyes of full-term and premature children during accommodation by means of precise ultrasonic biometry. Materials and methods. The study was made on healthy full-term children’s eyes with emmetropic refraction (group, n = 20); full-term 1st degree myopic children’s eyes with refraction from -1.0 D to...

background: although many countries had improvement in heath system in last twenty years but expense of research and its difficulties does not allow managers to solve their problems by doing research. if we accept that biostatistics is one of the scientific tools for research, we imply that in all domains of health system research applying statistical techniques is essential. this study was per...
