Objective: Vitamin D deficiency is a common disorder worldwide and is indicated by low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. Recent studies have suggested an association of 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency with diabetes mellitus. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration and type 2 diabetes in South Indian patients. Materials and Methods...

Background: Identify factors affecting medication adherence is effective in the planning of patient care, education and follow-up of heart failure patients. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between type D personality and medication adherence in patients with systolic heart failure was performed. Methods: This was a descriptive -correlational study . 100 patients with systolic he...

Let Mg be the coarse moduli space of stable curves of genus g. Eisenbud, Harris and Mumford proved a relation between certain divisors on Mg (the Brill-Noether divisors, to be described below). Calculating their classes in PicMg⊗Q, they succeeded in proving that Mg is of general type for g > 23, g+1 composite. In subsequent work, the restriction that g + 1 be composite was removed. In this pape...

background and objective: due to a high prevalence of osteoporosis and its costs and regarding different ways of treatment for this disease and lack of knowledge about their efficacy in fracture rate in iran, this study was designed in zanjan to determine fracture rate in hypogonadal osteoporotic women who were on different types of anti-osteoporotic treatments. materials and methods: in this h...

background: vitamin d deficiency may play a key role in the development of impaired glucose tolerance, type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm), and metabolic syndrome. several studies have shown that vitamin d has an antioxidant property. we aimed to investigate 25?hydroxy vitamin d (25[oh]d) levels in patients with t2dm and in nondiabetic healthy controls and to ascertain the impact of 25(oh)d levels ...

The extraction-separation of lanthanum and europium ions with bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (DEHPA) in cyclohexane was improved by adding 12-crown-4 (12C4) to the aqueous phase as a masking agent. In the presence of this crown ether the extraction curve of lanthanum ions versus pH shifts to the higher pH region, while the curve is not influenced for the europium ions. Consequently the s...
