conclusions family members are valuable components in the therapeutic process of delirium. effective use of family members in the delirium caring process can be considered to be one of the key non-medical nursing components in the therapeutic process. results two main themes from two different perspectives emerged, 'patients' perspectives' (experiences during icu hospitalization) and 'family me...

As we know that, the Fick principle involves many limitations. Most important concern is measuring oxygen consumption (VO2) for Fick calculation. However, direct measurement of VO2 is difficult and expensive. Therefore, it has been generally accepted that, predicted VO2 values can be use in practice (1). A table has been published in European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guideline which is point...

background: jaw bone quality plays an essential role in treatment planning and prognosis of dental implants. regarding several available methods for bone density measurements, they are not routinely used before implant surgery due to hard accessibility. objective: an in vitro investigation of correlation between average gray scale in direct digital radiographs and hounsfield units in ct-scan pr...

Graph transformation units are rule-based entities that allow to transform source graphs into target graphs via sets of graph transformation rules according to a control condition. The graphs and rules are taken from an underlying graph transformation approach. Graph transformation units specify model transformations whenever the transformed graphs represent models. This paper is based on the o...

Iwasawa’s classical asymptotical formula relates the orders of the p-parts Xn of the ideal class groups along a Zp-extension F∞/F of a number field F , to Iwasawa structural invariants λ and μ attached to the inverse limit X∞ = lim ← Xn. It relies on ”good” descent properties satisfied by Xn. If F is abelian and F∞ is cyclotomic it is known that the p-parts of the orders of the global units mod...

multi-word lexical units are a typical feature of specialized dictionaries, in particular monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. the paper studies the concept of the multi-word lexical unit and considers the similarities and differences of their selection and presentation in monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. the work analyses such issues as the classification of multi-w...

conclusions approximately one quarter of premature neonates had early mortality, which can be predicted by low gestational age, low birth weight, low apgar score, need to intensive supports, postpartum complications, multiple gestation and history of maternal illnesses. objectives we aimed to determine mortality rate and its main indicators among premature neonates in our region with the aim of...
