in this investigation, 25 adult new zealand white rabbits randomly selected from both sexes and studied.coloured latex injection and corrosion cast methods were applied on the materials. this study was carried out to disclose the distribution of the cardiac veins of the new zealand white rabbits. the veins that drain the heart were found to be the great cardiac vein, the middle cardiac vein, th...

Foetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia is the most common cause of severe thrombocytopenia in the newborn. It is an acute disorder which implies that foetal platelets are destroyed during the pregnancy due to a maternal alloimmune IgG antibody. More than 80% of Caucasians are HPA-1a specific. Intracranial haemorrhage, which occurs in 30% of cases, is the most serious complication, with a 1...

Estimating the influence of dust aerosol on clouds, especially deep convective clouds which is closely related to heavy precipitation, still has large uncertainties due lack adequate direct measurements. In this study, a typical storm along with thunderstorm (referred dust-rain storm), occurred in Northwest India May 2, 2018, was selected explore possible effects cloud by combining series satel...

AIM Adolescents and young adults with cerebral palsy (CP) show reduced motor function and gait efficiency, and lower levels of habitual physical activity (HPA), than adolescents with typical development and children with CP. This study examined activity duration and patterns in this population in the Middle East through long-term monitoring of a large sample using accelerometers. METHOD Adole...

[1] We use the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model to interpret observations of tropospheric ozone from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) satellite instrument in summer 2005. Observations from TES reveal elevated ozone in the middle troposphere (500–400 hPa) across North Africa and the Middle East. Observed ozone abundances in the middle troposphere are at a maximum in summer and a mi...

Tropical upper-tropospheric troughs (TUTTs), transient summertime disturbances over the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, are also observed to frequently occur in the North American monsoon (NAM) region. However, unlike TUTTs over the Pacific and Atlantic, which feature a predominance of precipitation on the eastern flank of the disturbances, TUTTs in the NAM region have been shown to enhance precip...

Background: Knowing the human platelet angens (HPA) and genes frequency in different populaons is important not only for populaon studies but also for clinical transfusion pracce. HPA genes frequency in Iran is not evaluated, so we invesgated the HPA-2, HPA-3, and HPA-5 frequency and their polymorphism. Materials and Methods: DNA from 120 Iranians (99 Iranian blood donors and 21 paents wi...

Background: Thrombocytopenia occurs in 1-5 % of newborns (platelet count < 150 × 109/L). Low platelet 50 109/L leads to the hemorrhagic syndrome, with one its causes being neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia resulting from incompatibility between mother and fetus human antigens (HPA) inherited father absent mother, which formation maternal antibodies. Anti-HPA-1a, anti-HPA-5b, anti-HPA-3a, ...

Concurrent tropospheric O 3 and CO vertical profiles from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) during the MILAGRO/INTEX-B aircraft campaigns over the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) allow us to characterize mega-city pollution. Outflow from the MCMA occurred predominantly at 600–800 hPa, evident in O 3 , CO, and NO x 5 enhancements in the in situ observations. We examined O 3 , CO,...

During the Northern hemisphere winter season, biomass burning is widespread in West Africa, yet the total tropospheric column ozone values (<30 DU) over much of the Tropical Atlantic Ocean (15 N–5 S) are relatively low. At the same time, the tropospheric column ozone values in the Southern Tropical Atlantic are higher than those in the Northern Hemisphere (ozone paradox). We examine the causes ...
