1. Age-, sex-, and growth-type-specific craniofacial templates represent a practical approach to orthodontic case analyses and craniofacial growth. 2. The Burlington Growth Centre Cephalometric Analysis is a practical adjunct to treatment planning. 3. This cephalometric analysis, which combines many analyses, is an assessment of the relative proportions of the face in length, width, and height ...

one of the reasons that companies avoid paying their taxes is that they choose to use debts for their funding. in other words, tax saving, an activity of companies to avoid taxpaying, can be used to finance corporate projects. furthermore, since institutional owners are more inclined to supervise, they may shrink managerial behaviors to avoid taxpaying. in this study, institutional owners’ supe...

land use planning is a science that determines the type of land use through studying the ecological character of the land as well as its socio-economic structure. it is possible to plan for the appropriate use of the land and to enhance the present management of the land use by utilizing geographical information system (gis). to this end, our investigators identified and took steps toward devel...

in the recent years, human activities have led to changes in land use and land cover, consequently, these changes lead to the structure and function of ecosystems. spatial-temporal change detection of land use is important to understand the relationships and interactions between human and natural resources and to make appropriate decisions due to changes in land use and land cover occurs in bro...

Congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) is the obstruction of the fetal upper airways, which may be partial or complete. It is usually incompatible with life. Prenatal recognition of the disease is quite important due to the recently described management options. We report here two cases of CHAOS due to tracheal atresia diagnosed by antenatal ultrasonography and fetal MRI. We also b...

An improved TASSER (Threading/ASSEmbly/Refinement) methodology is applied to predict the tertiary structure for all CASP7 targets. TASSER employs template identification by threading, followed by tertiary structure assembly by rearranging continuous template fragments, where conformational space is searched via Parallel Hyperbolic Monte Carlo sampling with an optimized force-field that includes...
