BACKGROUND Emergence delirium is a behavioral disturbance after general anesthesia in children and may distress both the patients and the primary caregivers, such as parents and medical staff, looking after the patients. Various medical and emotional interventions have been investigated to reduce emergence delirium; however, none are completely effective. This trial intends to assess whether th...

Klebsiella pneumoniae shows increasing emergence of multidrug-resistant lineages, including strains resistant to all available antimicrobial drugs. We conducted whole-genome sequencing of 178 highly drug-resistant isolates from a tertiary hospital in Lahore, Pakistan. Phylogenetic analyses to place these isolates into global context demonstrate the expansion of multiple independent lineages, in...

Recently much attention has been paid by horticulturists to light-emitting diodes as a new source of economical and spectral-selective light. The reason is mainly coming from their versatility in handling and mounting, long working time, wattage use efficiency and lower heat production. In this study we examined their potential in promoting seed germination and producing quality flower seedling...

introduction: response to tracheal tube during emergence of general anesthesia is a main concern. we aimed to compare the effect of remifentanil and lidocaine on response to tracheal tube during emergence of general anesthesia. materials and methods: in this randomized clinical trial, we enrolled 80 consecutive patients with american society of anesthesiology (asa) physical status i–ii, who und...

background: as moringa peregrina is a valuable medicinal plant in traditional medicine, it is necessary to determine responses of this plant to salinity.  objective: to determine some biochemical and growth responses of moringa peregrina to salinity at the seedling stage. methods: this experiment was conducted in institute of medicinal plants-acecr, on base of factorial experiment as completely...

American Journal of Botany 98(6): 975–985, 2011; http://www.amjbot.org/ © 2011 Botanical Society of America Seedling emergence, when the dormant seed germinates and begins life as a seedling, is the most fragile of stages in the life cycle of annual plants. The timing or phenology of seedling emergence can strongly infl uence plant fi tness, as well as the composition of a plant ’ s neighborhoo...

Deep-water emergence (DWE) is the phenomenon where marine species normally found at great depths (i.e., below 200 m), can be locally occurring in significantly shallower euphotic zone, usually than 50 m). Although this has been previously mentioned and deep-water emergent have described from fjord regions of North America, Scandinavia, New Zealand, local or global hypotheses to explain rarely t...

Quantitative information about the response of seedling emergence totemperature for safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is rare. The main objective ofthe present study was to develop a model for predicting days to emergence forsafflower as influenced by the temperature. In this regard, a field experiment with arange of sowing dates and four safflower cultivars were conducted to describe theresp...
