Solution. We can consider the integration from −∞ to ∞ instead. For R > 1, consider the contour that consists of the segment from −R to R and the arc {Reiθ | θ ∈ [0, π]}. Since z2+1 z4+1 decays as |z|−2 on the complex plane as |z| → ∞, this contour integral converges to twice of the original integral when R→∞. The contour encloses two simple poles eπi/4 and e3πi/4 of the function. At eπi/4 the ...

Regardless of the suspected cause of death, a medical examiner or coroner's postmortem examination should always be thorough and comprehensive, for deaths which come under the jurisdiction of this office are often extremely complex, dealing as they do mostly with instances of sudden and unexpected demise. The postmortem examination should be approached with a certain degree of suspicion of ot.h...

To evaluate the usefulness of computerized adaptive testing (CAT) in medical school, the General Examination for senior medical students was administered as a paper and pencil test (P&P) and using CAT. The General Examination is a graduate examination, which is also a preliminary examination for the Korean Medical Licensing Examination (KMLE). The correlations between the results of the CAT and...

background and purpose: disc herniation leading to radiculopathy is one of the important differential diagnosis of low back pain which needs specific medical care. radiculopathies can be initially diagnosed by history taking and physical examination. however role of other diagnostic methods like magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and electromyography (emg) in narrowing differential diagnosis is w...

aim: using short text messages (sms) is the easiest and cheapest method of healtheducation programs in order to increase women’s’ knowledge and early detection ofdiseases. this study was conducted in 2013 in order to compare the educational effect ofbreast self examination (bse) by two different methods of sms and lecturing in femalestudents who work and study in non- medical fields.method: in ...

abstract introduction: today, there is a global tendency to teaching anatomy courses at the same time with clinical skills during medical education period. this project was designed to determine the effect of an integrated course of physical examination and trunk anatomy on second year medical students' knowledge of anatomy and their attitude towards this method of learning anatomy. method...

background: breast and testicular cancers affect a substantial and increasing proportion of the global population. self-examination encourages early detection and treatment of these cancers, which positively impacts on patient quality of life and survival. methods: the present study investigated the role of body esteem in breast and testicular self-examination. men ( n = 60) and women ( n = 90)...

background : forensic odontology is that branch of dentistry which plays a vital role with regard to anthropological studies and human identification. in the cases of mass disasters or cases where only the skeletal remains are found, bones and teeth will be the only source of information for the identification of the dead.  any aberrations or any variations from the normality become a distincti...

Introduction. One of the proplems that both medical students and educational programmers are involved in is the importance of basic science materials in comprehention of clinical subjects and student's performance after that. Our goal is to measure the correlation coefficient between the CBSE and CPSE and the predictive validity of CBSE for CPIE. Methods. Analytic cross-sectional study was co...
