thymoma is the most common neoplasm of anterior mediastinum with incidence peaks during the fourth, fifth and sixth decades of life. two-thirds of patients are asymptomatic and identified accidentally by chest x-rays . of the total, 40-70 % of patients have one or more parathymic syndromes of which myasthenia gravis (mg) is the most common and reported in 10-50% . gullain-barre syndrome (gbs) h...

This paper addresses a behavior-based fuzzy controller (BFC) for mobile robot wall-following control.The wall-following task is usually used to explore an unknown environment.The proposed BFC consists of three sub-fuzzy controllers, including Straight-based Fuzzy Controller (SFC),Left-based Fuzzy Controller (LFC), and Right-based Fuzzy Controller (RFC).The proposed wall-...

Potential energy surfaces form a central concept in the application of electronic structure methods to the study of molecular structures, properties, and reactivities. Recent advances in tools for exploring potential energy surfaces are surveyed. Methods for geometry optimization of equilibrium structures, searching for transition states, following reaction paths and ab initio molecular dynamic...

Brake fluid is a mixture of different Glycol derivatives which are poisoning and their ingestion triggers significant CNS symptoms, severe metabolic acidosis, cardiac, pulmonary, and renal failure. Here in this study, a case is reported who had been ingested 150mL of brake fluid for suicidal attempt. 

Endometrial calcification along with ossification is an uncommon clinical entity. Most of the cases are asymptomatic or present with secondary infertility. Endometrial ossification associated with repeated abortions has been reported very infrequently. Here we report a case of endometrial calcification with ossification  due to retained fetal bony tissue in a 38 year old symptomatic female havi...

objective: seeking for fertility after previous vasectomy is increasing. vasectomy may break the blood testis barrier and in this way the level of antisperm antibody increases. it is suggested that increase in antisperm antibody decreases spontaneous pregnancy even after successful vasovasostomy. in this study we evaluated antisperm antibody formation 3 months after vasectomy. method: this stud...

in this report, early complications (defined as those occurring within one month post-operatively) following renal transplantation were evaluated in 373 kidney transplantations in our department. the most common complications as well as their relative frequency and method of management are discussed.
